Arsenal kicked off their 2023 pre-season on July 8 with a behind-closed-doors friendly at their London Colney training base, playing out a 1-1 draw against Championship outfit Watford.
The North London giants followed it with another 1-1 stalemate, this time against 2. Nurnberg in their first official friendly of the summer as part of a brief training camp in Germany.
They landed in the stateside for their tour of the United States, which they began with a smashing 5-0 victory against the MLS All-Stars on July 19.
However, a couple of days later, Premier League rivals Manchester United downed the Gunners 2-0 at the MetLife Stadium in New Jersey. But regardless of the result, the match went to a penalty shootout, with United once again coming out on top 5-3.
The Premier League runners-up bounced back from their disappointing loss to Man United to beat Barcelona 5-3 in at SoFi Stadium, the home of owner Stan Kroenke's LA Rams, in Los Angeles, before wrapping up their pre-season campaign by beating Monaco from 12 yards to win the Emirates Cup after the game finished 1-1 in normal time.
The Gunners then lifted the first silverware of the 2023-24 season in the form of Community Shield at the Wembley Stadium.
Mikel Arteta's men were seemingly down and out after Cole Palmer's sublime opener handed treble winners Man City the advantage with under 15 minutes of regular time left on the clock, but they equalised through Leandro Trossard in the 11th minute of second-half injury time, and came out on top 4-1 in the subsequent penalty shootout.
