Arsenal have been rocked by Andreas Pereira’s strike in the opening minute of the match which put Fulham FC 1-0 up early on.
The Gunners had been hoping to win their third straight league match of the campaign, but we now have our work cut out to do so.
Former Man United youngster Pereira has caught goalkeeper Ramsdale out of position before placing his effort out of reach of the Englishman, and we will have to gather ourselves in order to overturn the early deficit.

Will Arsenal pass their first big test of the season?

Careless from Saka.
I fear this tinkering in tactics are costing us – Fulham are having the best of this game.
Fully agree weth me2 – so good attacking play but can’t finish. Lots of errors against a poor defensive team – poor passing, poor tackling, players out of position and lost. White at CB? Partey still at RB? Abysmal finishing, Havertz always on his heels, seems clueless as he often takes other players positions. Arteta please stop mucking about with starters positions and tactics – bit of a mess first half honestly
This result is all ARTETA’s. Why is Arteta rushing Havertz into a system that took the Arsenal team a whole season to get into? What’s his obsession with Havertz, who’s not only taking someone’s place in the team, but forces other players to be played out of position? How do we asses Partey in a Quarter-back position?
What is this pressing issue that’s making Arteta play Havertz really?
