2016 review: Pics of the year - part two

Fifty-three games, 28 wins, thousands of pictures.

It’s been another interesting year at Arsenal, and our club photographers have been with the team every step of the way.

Check out the final selection of Stuart MacFarlane and David Price’s favourite snaps from 2016 below.

1. We've got Mesut Ozil

David says: A brilliant finish by Mesut Ozil to win the match. I love how the ball is just tantalisingly out of the Ludogorets goalkeeper's reach as Mesut knocks it over him

2. Time for training

Stuart says: Here's a silhouette of Arsenal players walking out for training. This picture can only be taken in the winter, the low sunlight reflecting off the path to the first ream pitches creates an atmospheric image.

3. Catch me if you can

David says: This is probably something you would normally see at a rugby match, Marcos Alonso finds a unique way to slow down Hector Bellerin.

Stuart says: Here's Olivier Giroud celebrating his late goal against West Brom. This is quite an unusual picture as Olivier has already celebrated with his team-mates, who are now on their way back for the West Brom kick off. Olivier can't resist one more moment with the Arsenal fans.

David says: I had the chance to get a unique view of the stadium before the match against Ludogorets. A member of club staff lives in a nearby block of flats. The buses in the foreground really give it a London feel. And as we know, north London is red.
