Judging from the way things have been going on lately, it could be safe to conclude that this is not Arsenal's season - once again. The gunners seem to be struggling lately in the Premier League, and are already out of the League Cup.
But that's very Arsenal, isn't it? One thing that seems to have irked the club's fans on social media is the fact that Olivier Giroud's golazo vs Crystal Palace in January did not win the Goal of the Month award. But instead, Andy Caroll's bicycle kick goal won the award for the best goal in the Premier League in January.

The announcement set Twitter on fire especially now that Arsenal fans had trolled their rivals Man Utd following Henrikh Mkhitaryan's scorpion kick goal vs Sunderland last December. They argued that Giroud's goal vs Palace, which was scored in almost a similar fashion, was far much better. Let's just say pride comes before a fall.
