Arsene Wenger has told his goal-shy strikers they must be more clinical after Arsenal‘s recent dip in form.
Taking just two points from their last three games, the Gunners have dropped to seventh in the Premier League – below Sean Dyche’s Burnley.
Arsenal were beaten by Jose Mourinho‘s Manchester United at the Emirates at the start of the month before dropping points against Southampton and West Ham.

The side scored just two goals in that period and Wenger admits the likes of Alexandre Lacazette and Alexis Sanchez must be more clinical in front of goal.
‘Not quite clinical enough, yes,’ Wenger said ahead of Saturday’s Premier League clash against Newcastle United. ‘It’s difficult to explain.
‘As we spoke about Sanchez last year, he scored 24, he’s on four at the moment. But he is still committed and he works hard.
‘I feel if you look at his [Lacazette] record, it’s quite good. Especially at home. At home his scoring record is really good. Away from home, a bit less.

‘But also, do the teams defend better? You could say no, because we create more chances than anybody else. Are the chances of the same quality? I don’t know. There is no objective reason to have a verdict on that.
‘Is it confidence? Is it the fact that the guys think we have absolutely to score? It’s difficult to know.
‘But we have the chances, the quality of our game is there. But it’s true that at the moment, we cannot show it up with points.’
