Paul Wheelock is joined by Football.London’s Art de Roché to get the lowdown on Arsenal ahead of their Community Shield clash against Liverpool at Wembley this afternoon. After winning the FA Cup last month to set-up the showdown with Premier League champions Liverpool, there is a quiet confidence at the Emirates, which will only grow further if club captain Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, who played for Reds boss Jurgen Klopp at Borussia Dortmund, puts pen to paper on a new contract. Art gives us the inside track on that and provides insight into two players Liverpool have been linked over these past two summers, Nicolas Pepe and Bukayo Saka. Enjoy.
