Arsenal Newsnow: The Gunners want Robin Le Normand
Le Normand, who has a contract with the Txuriurdin until June 2026, has scored four goals and assisted on six more during his 170 career games.
Former Chelsea striker Chris Sutton, writing for the BBC, has picked Arsenal to win 2-0 away to West Ham United in the Premier League on Sunday (April 16).
He said: “Arsenal need to bounce back after what happened at Anfield. I can see why their 2-2 draw against Liverpool is viewed as being a good point gained, especially because of Aaron Ramsdale’s brilliant save to deny the Reds at the end – it could have been worse for Mikel Arteta’s side. But I know how I felt as a player when we led 2-0 in games and let it slip, and it will have felt like a defeat.”
He added: “The way the league leaders react is going to be fascinating. The wheels could have come off when they lost to Manchester City in February but they responded with seven successive wins. Nothing less than a win will do for them here either, and I think they will get it. West Ham are still desperate for points so they will give their everything – but the Gunners should be too good for them.”
With 73 points after 30 matches, the Gunners are three points ahead of Manchester City in the Premier League rankings.
