Looks like he spends his entire day on social media. Literally likes every single Instagram post out there.

You do know their ‘official’ accounts aren’t usually run by the actual players right? They have their own private accounts they use.

They probably have personal assistants that look after their social media interests.

Lacazette: Arsenal should forget titles for a few seasons & aim for top four

The France international forward is hoping to compete for silverware in the near future, with Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang also chasing down trophies

Alexandre Lacazette admits Arsenal are still “a few seasons” away from challenging for “the biggest titles” having ended 2018-19 without silverware.

The Spaniard also failed to deliver Champions League qualification after a fifth-place finish in the Premier League.

Lacazette is aware of the need for Arsenal to improve from this point, but accepts that may not be a quick process.

The France international told FourFourTwo : "A club like Arsenal has to be playing in the Champions League every season.

"We will start to think to think about winning the biggest titles in a few seasons, but first we need to make sure we are in the Champions League consistently again."

Lacazette’s striker partner, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, added: "That has to be the main target of every Arsenal season.

"You come back to training and that's what everyone is thinking about.

"We're hungry to hear that song once again. It's time. We have the quality to do it, so we have to make sure we will do it."

Arsenal believe they have the right coach to guide them forward, with Emery considered to have delivered cause for optimism after inheriting the reins from Arsene Wenger.

Lacazette sees signs of encouragement, saying of the 2018-19 campaign: "It's been positive. We had a new coach with a new approach, and I think I've played well - better than in the previous season.

"And we've played bigger, more important games."

Aubameyang, who recorded 22 goals in the Premier League last season to claim a share of the Golden Boot with Liverpool duo Sadio Mane and Mohamed Salah , said: "It's so important to win something.

"This is a great club, which has a very long history of winning important trophies, so it's time we won something big again.

"There was the FA Cup a couple of years ago, but now we have to aspire to more. We have a strong mentality to always move forward after any setback."

Joined the bench wearing a brace. Hope his injury not as serious as it looks.

Lacazette is exactly correct. It's about a slow rebuild and improvement season in season out for a few years.
It's fairly obviously the case when you look at our squad compared to Liverpool, City, Spurs, Chelsea and the big teams in Europe.
It's going to take time.

This would be typical, typical Arsenal.

We probably moved to the Emirates at the hour of the wolf.

would rather Laca get to recover fully before bringing him back into action. Auba and Nketiah leading the line with Pepe on the bench is more than good enough against Newcastle.
