David Luiz has now given away SIX penalties and had THREE red cards since joining Arsenal just 18 months ago... as defender's dismissal sees Gunners throw away lead against Wolves

David Luiz's Arsenal career reached another low in their 2-1 defeat against Wolves after the defender gave away his sixth penalty and received his third red card since joining the club.

In the dying moments of an impressive first half for Arsenal at Molineux, the Brazilian was penalised for making slight contact with Wolves' Willian Jose, denying a clear goalscoring opportunity.

Ruben Neves duly dispatched to cancel out Nicholas Pepe's fine opener before Arsenal then went behind shortly after the break through Joao Moutinho's stunner, eventually going on to lose.

The 33-year-old is sadly no stranger to a red card or a penalty concession, suffering the third and sixth respectively since joining Arsenal from Chelsea in the summer of 2019, the most of any player since then.
