“My fans know that I like to spend my vacation in Los Angeles, because the city inspires me”.

“Football-wise it’s great to train with him”.
Despite Mesut Ozil notching up key passes and clear-cut chances like picking apples from a tree, Arsenal did not have a man capable of converting them into goals.
Giroud was then denied by the woodwork soon after, hitting the bar with a header from a corner that had come about from Gorbunov tipping another Griezmann free-kick just over.
He has an autobiography out next month and a Hollywood biopic in the offing but not everything about the Jamie Vardy story is to the liking of the man who went from non-league to champion of the Premier League in the space of four years. For Vardy, a move to a club of Arsenal’s stature would have been a considerable option given his age and experience in the Premier League.
Vardy played a starring role in Leicester’s fairytale run to their maiden EPL title last season. “He knows there is definitely a good chance that I’ll get on the end of it”.
Now consider he had moved to Arsenal.
The Gunners made three major signings in the summer transfer window. “It’s a challenge, and if someone had told me at ten years old when I was playing in the streets of La Coruna, I would have thrown them off a bridge, I’d have said ‘you’re insane'”.
While his team pressed and defended doggedly right from the off, they nearly certainly wouldn’t have been able to hold out against Les Bleus’ superior technical and athletic qualities had it not been for Gorbunov’s litany of saves.
Limpar, who played for Arsenal in the years before Wenger arrived, is not convinced that the current manager should be departing the Emirates as soon as May 2017. An example of feeling stranded is Robin Van Persie’s time with Manchester United.
‘The good thing is the new manager wants to make it as much as if we were just at normal clubs. The Gunners have already visited Leicester this season, drawing 0-0 at the King Power Stadium, with Vardy starting up front for the Foxes. Arsene Wenger continues to NOT sign a global superstar? Wenger really needs to shape that frontline where his players have been at times clueless of what their definitive role is. A team which shows consistency is bound to attract top players in the business. “They obviously want to keep it going”.

France had another late chance to score a victor but Griezmann put his pass behind Kevin Gameiro, who was open in the centre, and they had to accept a goalless draw.
