Marouane is likely to look back at the 2011\/12 campaign with some disappointment, having not been able to make the impact he would have hoped for.
With Robin van Persie in such imperious form, first-team opportunities were at a premium but the Moroccan international could not quite find the momentum needed to force his way into the reckoning on a regular basis.
The season started brightly for the 28-year-old as he stepped off the bench to score with a firm header in September's defeat at Blackburn, but that proved to be the only goal he managed last term. It may have been a campaign of regret for Marouane, but he will undoubtedly come back stronger and keen to make up for lost time this season.
The striker joined the Club on a free transfer in May 2010 after a highly-productive spell at Bordeaux, and made an eye-catching start to his Arsenal career. With Van Persie out injured, the Moroccan striker scored 10 times for the Gunners before Christmas and impressed with his work-rate and link-up play.
His challenge now is to reproduce that level of performance and show exactly why Arsène Wenger has put his faith in him.<\/P>","58D6F117B0E852FD":"185cm","07457F0B881B82B22AE30767A70DD3E1":"","E630D11720E4B295":"1","07FC4394D7BF000AA5BFC85E2D0D6D63":"Morocco","0FA2227E78AF1E09":"Maromane Chamakh","2A56C1DBE121525F":"Crystal Palace","809C0B5A31626463":"112","32F0494A6A8D9C00F8184D20C089D458":"1984-1-10","50F712C5D7EA2EE5C48850A5D641D459":"Arsenal","3653565C44D0522B57B14E876735C3FA":"Arsenal,Bordeaux","5B991257A722E1E0F74ECF7A8C1C2945":"","A16C626949206183":"13266","B13BBD17F9E21D375893DBD6F2FC7F72":"0","249186B187931B83":"70kg","F8A44A36F46FF4E4":"Maromane Chamakh","72FFC7073AEDD99FBC6698239F961CC0":"2016-10-11","e_index":0};
