Arsenal manager, Unai Emery Sunday afternoon broke former Gunners boss, Arsene Wenger’s possession record following his side’s Premier League 3-0 defeat to Leicester City.
A strike from Youri Tielemans and a brace from Jamie Vardy gave Brendan Rodgers’ men all three points against Arsenal at King Power Stadium.
However, Metro UK reports that the defeat to Leicester City means that Arsenal recorded just 32.8% possession against the hosts – the lowest they have ever registered in the Premier League history.
Arsenal’s previous worst record came during Wenger’s regime when they had just 35% possession during their 2-2 draw with Liverpool at Anfield in 2014.
Arsenal are currently occupying the sixth position on the Premier League table with 66 points from 36 games.
Emery’s men will now tackle Valencia in the Europa League semi-final first leg tie on Thursday in their next fixture.
