Fulham 1-0 Arsenal

Fulham are becoming a bogey team for Arsenal.

After Raul outpaced Kiwior to shoot across Raya to put the Cottagers ahead, Arsenal's early domination was cut short.

Quite how Raya was blamed for that goal by one of the pundits, Don Hutchison, if I'm not mistaken, is beyond belief as it was a great shot into the far corner. Glenn Hoddle in the studio said Raya wasn't 'set', so maybe the pundits are right, after all. However, Kiwior was outpaced and outfoxed by Raul, in my opinion. A keeper can't be blamed for a shot that beats him at the far post, hitting the side netting.

After going down 1-0, the confidence visibly leaked from Arsenal, but Saka did manage to get a shot in on target.

It's going to be a tough ask to come back from this in the second half, especially as Odegaard is limping.
