Arsenal record with blue kit in 2017-18 | Results of AFC games played in Blue away Shirt in 17-18 season

Arsenal lost to Ostersunds in the second leg of their Europa League knockout tie, with the little known Swedish outfit becoming only the SECOND team to beat the Gunners at the Emirates in the current 2017/2018 season (the first being Manchester United)

However, despite being the home side, Arsenal were wearing their blue away jersey for the game against Ostersunds- apparently because their home kit clashed with the visitors’ red and black change strip (in the end Ostersunds wore their home kit and Arsenal their away uniform!)

The loss to Ostersunds continues Arsenal’s terrible record in the blue kit this season. Liverpool have enjoyed great success with their orange third shirt this season, but Arsenal’s record in the blue one has been just the opposite.

They’ve played ten games and LOST EIGHT of them– the exceptions being the 4-2 away win at BATE in the EL, and a 1-1 draw against Southampton- so P10- W1, L8, D1

The Argentine press opted to run a story featuring famous actors who look like Barca superstar Lionel Messi. A photo of Dustin Hoffman, then 37, shows the legendary actor’s striking similarity to Messi, especially when the duo opt for long hair.

The winner of 2 Oscars and 6 Golden Globes, Hoffman is now 80, but the pic, taken in 1975, has gone viral on social media, with several users remarking that if a movie had to be made, the 75 Hoffman would’ve been a perfect fit for portraying Messi.
