12 days to the Premier League new season and fun fact on Henry, Wright and Aubameyang

With just 12 days until the Premier League season kicks off, Arsenal fans are eagerly anticipating the start of what promises to be another exciting campaign.

The Gunners will be hoping to build on their strong showing last season, where they finished second in the table, and challenge for the title once again. Their season gets underway on Saturday, August 17th, with a home clash against Wolverhampton Wanderers.

As we count down to the big kick-off, it’s worth reflecting on Arsenal’s rich history of prolific goal-scorers. The club’s record books are filled with legends who have consistently found the back of the net, leaving an indelible mark on the Premier League.

Interestingly, Arsenal players have achieved the feat of scoring 20+ goals in a Premier League season on 12 occasions. Thierry Henry, the club’s all-time leading scorer, leads the way with five such seasons. Ian Wright and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang follow with two each, while the likes of Emmanuel Adebayor, Robin van Persie and Alexis Sanchez have also reached that milestone once.

This impressive record is a testament to Arsenal’s enduring ability to attract and develop world-class attacking talent. As the new season gets underway, the Gunners will be hoping to add to this legacy, with their current crop of forwards looking to emulate their illustrious predecessors.

With the start of the season just around the corner, the excitement is building at the Emirates Stadium. Can Arsenal finally dethrone Manchester City and lift the Premier League trophy? Only time will tell, but the club’s history suggests they have the potential to achieve great things.
