<P> In the Community Shield match against the 2014 Premier League champions Manchester City, Arsenal convincingly won 3--0 for their second trophy within three months . Santi Cazorla, Aaron Ramsey and substitute Olivier Giroud scored the goals in the traditional opening game of the English football season . </P> <P> In the 2014--15 Premier League, after a hard - fought 2--1 comeback win where Aaron Ramsey scored in the final minute of the first game against Crystal Palace, two away draws at Everton and Leicester City in August, plus right back Bacary Sagna's earlier move to Manchester City, fans wanted another signing . Arsenal managed to sign Danny Welbeck from Manchester United on deadline day while Wenger officiated at a Peace Game hosted by Pope Francis . Arsenal remained undefeated for the first six games until they lost 2--0 at Chelsea on 5 October . They went on to finish third in the league and won the FA Cup for the second year in a row after a 4--0 trouncing of Aston Villa in the final at Wembley, thanks to goals by Theo Walcott, Alexis Sánchez from distance, Per Mertesacker and Olivier Giroud, respectively . This qualified them for their second successive Community Shield, this time against Chelsea, and the Gunners retained the Shield thanks to Alex Oxlade - Chamberlain's first - half strike . This match was the debut of new goalkeeper Petr Čech, who had coincidentally arrived from Chelsea after having won the Premier League, FA Cup and Champions League with the Blues, and the Czech managed to keep a clean sheet against his former club . It was also the first time that Wenger had beaten a team managed by José Mourinho, his 14th attempt, while finishing third in the league . </P> <P> For the following season, Arsenal gradually progressed upon their league form, eventually becoming runners - up in 2016 . In order to capture that ever - elusive Premier League title for the first time in 12 years, the club spent heavily in the transfer market in the summer of 2016, spending over £ 80 million on four first - team acquisitions, namely capturing Shkodran Mustafi and Granit Xhaka, who operate as a central defender and central midfielder, respectively . Both positions were long deemed problem positions in the team, with the hope Arsenal could push on and win the league after signing the pair . However, poor league form saw Arsenal competing heavily for the final UEFA Champions League space, having taken a race with Liverpool and Manchester City to the final day of the season . Despite winning 3 - 1 against Everton, results elsewhere meant they only finished fifth, missing out on a Champions League spot for the first time in two decades, and the first ever under Wenger . However, Arsenal won the FA Cup Final 2 - 1 against Chelsea, making it their third win in four seasons, and made them the most successful club in the history of the competition . </P> <P> In order to rebuild the squad after a disappointing league campaign, and to prepare for the club's first in the UEFA Europa League, Arsenal used the following off - season to sign strongman left - back Sead Kolašinac from Schalke 04, while also purchasing striker Alexandre Lacazette for a club - record £ 46.5 million . The club then parted ways with seventeen players, including first - team stalwart Alex Oxlade - Chamberlain to Liverpool for a record sale fee of £ 40 million . The club, however, began the 2017 - 18 campaign poorly, failing to register an away win until December . After outcry from fans about the club's inabilities on the pitch, Arsenal went and appointed backroom trio Sven Mslintat, Raúl Sanllehi, and Huss Farhmy, to act as head scout, head of footballing relations, and contract negotiator respectively, in order to address the club's shortcomings . </P>
