Premier League
He equaled the black record from 2005 with a clean sheet against Burnley
Arsenal not only failed to beat Burnley’s resistance at the Emirates, but also went without a goal for a fourth straight game in all competitions, the last time they had done under Wenger 16 years ago.
Arsenal progressed from being knocked out by Liverpool into the League Cup semi-finals, itching to win at home against Burnley that would keep them in the Battle of the Four, but instead offered another medicine for their fans, staying 0-0 with Sean Cuber.
In fact, the Londoners combined this negative result with a black record, having left the fourth straight game without a goal, with Arteta’s players ballless except for the games with Burnley (Premier League) and Liverpool (League Cup) in both previous ones with Liverpool at Anfield (0-0) and Forrest at Nottingham (0-1 defeat and elimination from the FA Cup).
Even more impressively, the north London side last had four tight games in all competitions without finding the net under Arsene Wenger’s bench in December 2015.
