Wright: Wenger has destroyed star man’s confidence

Arsenal legend Ian Wright has accused Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger of destroying summer signing Alexandre Lacazette’s confidence, according to the Mirror.

The Frenchman moved to the Gunners in the summer for £46.5 million but after a fine start, he has struggled to keep the goals flowing.

His form has dipped so much that he has netted just one goal in his last 12 matches and the arrival of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang from Borussia Dortmund in the January window for a club-record fee only spells more trouble for Lacazette.

The striker has also been frustrated, as he has been subbed off in 15 of his 22 starts this season.

Lacazette, who netted in his first Arsenal game against Leicester, was limited to no action in the win over Everton which has proven to be a cause for concern for the Frenchman, as he frets over his game-time.

The former Arsenal striker Wright has spoken about the situation that Lacazette has found himself in a recent interview.

He [Lacazette] has played well in games, he has scored goals, but he has been taken off. Wenger has destroyed Lacazette’s confidence.
