Arsenal exits Champions League, faces recruitment criticism

News summary

Arsenal suffered a painful exit from the Champions League semi-finals after losing 3-1 on aggregate to Paris Saint-Germain, ending their hopes of silverware this season. Despite a strong start and creating chances, Arsenal lacked clinical finishing and were punished by PSG's Fabian Ruiz and Achraf Hakimi. Captain Martin Odegaard highlighted the team's shortcomings in both penalty areas and stressed the need for unity and learning from the defeat. Manager Mikel Arteta, who has revitalized Arsenal since 2019, has yet to add to his 2020 FA Cup trophy, and the club faces growing pressure to deliver more silverware. Arsenal legend Ian Wright blamed the club's recruitment strategy for the lack of depth and quality, emphasizing the need for significant signings to compete for top honors. With key injuries and missed transfer opportunities, Arsenal's failure to secure a prolific striker was seen as a crucial factor in their inability to progress further.
