Better get ready, Emi: Analysing how Arsenal have fared against their former keepers
  • Overall, Arsenal have scored 49 goals in 24 games against 4 shot-stoppers who had previously played for the Gunners.
  • It means, on average, the North London side score slightly more than 2 goals against their former keepers.
  • West Ham's Lukasz Fabianski, who was our second-choice goalie between 2007 and 2013, has played 12 times against Arsenal, allowing 21 goals.
  • Italian shot-stopper Vito Mannone, who was tipped to eventually replace Jens Lehmann when he arrived at Highbury in 2006, made 3 appearances against Arsenal, conceding 6 goals.
  • Richard Wright, who played second fiddle to David Seaman in the 2001-02 season, featured in 8 games against the Gunners, conceding 18 goals and failing to keep a single clean sheet.
  • And Stuart Taylor, who began his career at Highbury and stayed at the club until 2005, suffered the most. He let in 4 goals in his only game against his boyhood side as Arsenal thrashed his Reading side in the 2012-13 season.
