PHOTO: Arsenal's official team photo includes silverware for first time since 2005

Thursday saw Arsenal unveil the shiniest official team photo that they've released in nine years.

And no, it's not because of Olivier Giroud's hair gel.

It's because the photo includes the FA Cup trophy that Arsenal claimed with their 3-2 extra-time win over Hull City in May as well as the FA Community Shield trophy that they won with a 3-0 victory over Manchester City in August.

It's worth noting that Alexis Sanchez is the only one of Arsenal's summer signings to appear in the front row of the photo, while Danny Welbeck, who joined the Gunners for £16 million before the closure of the summer transfer window, is standing in the second row between Calum Chambers and Hector Bellerin.
