Score Draw Arsenal 1985 Centenary Shirt

Product Information

Brentford, meanwhile, are eighth and just five points off fifth place. Gunners title hopes dented by resilient Bees Arsenal are favourites to claim the points today, and with the extra rest they have had compared to their hosts it will take a supreme performance from West Ham to upset the odds. But title run ins are never simple and with Ings and Co still very much in a relegation dogfight Arteta's side will doubtless be prepared for typical London derby - tough with no inches given. It is early days in the 2023-24 season, with the second round of matches only getting under way, but United move top for now and Arsenal sit seventh, with the rest of the division still to play this weekend. Eidevall hails 'big' performance Jonas Eidevall has been in charge of Arsenal since June 2021 But when Caleta-Car escaped his marker at the far post to head home a corner in the 66th minute, it left Arsenal's title bid in serious trouble.

It is a move that has not yet worked as Arteta hoped, with Raya looking uncertain in recent games, at fault for a goal in the Champions League defeat away to Lens and getting away with moments of hesitation in the win against Manchester City. Arsenal will finish the day top of the Premier League table for the first time this season. With the top two (Man City and Liverpool) drawing 1-1 earlier, this is now the second time in Premier League history that the top two have met but neither have finished the day top, after 28th November 2015 (Leicester 1-1 Manchester United, Man City finished the day top). Following Leandro Trossard’s equaliser, we have now had five goals scored by substitutes in the Premier League this season with only Brighton having more (7). Manager Mikel Arteta was berating his players regularly for their carelessness, but there can be no questions about their character as they snatched a point with that late rally. Arsenal raised the tempo in the closing stages - including seven minutes of added time - as they searched for a winner but Brentford completed an excellent defensive display by holding firm for a point.For all Arteta's talk of competition for places, it is clear he was installing the 28-year-old Spain international as his main keeper and much was riding on his choice. So this is going to be far from easy for Arsenal. They won here at the start of last season, but the Bees' home form is very strong and we know how well-balanced they are, and how awkward they are are to play against. Martin Odegaard claimed the second in a collective defensive brain freeze from West Ham but he, too, then became more and more indulgent and stopped playing with the incision that has so marked him out during his captaincy.

It was a great attitude, we were good on the ball, made good switches and runs in behind and created a lot of chances. On Wout Weghorst and Bruno Fernandes: "For a striker [Wout Weghorst] was so close so many times. He has already created chances and goals for others and he deserved his goal. Bruno [Fernandes] was fantastic. He led the team with his control of the game and passing and then he scored a goal." Jonas Eidevall's side have a game in hand, but are clearly missing star forwards Beth Mead and Vivianne Miedema who are both out for the season with knee injuries. Cole Palmer’s opener was the first away goal we have conceded in the Premier League since May at Nottingham Forest, ending our run of 355 minutes without conceding on the road in the competition.On Kai Havertz: "I do not know anybody who is not happy for him. He fully deserves it. He is a tremendous football player. He was the right player and won the game for us." The draw for Arsenal follows successive defeats in the league and FA Cup to Everton and Manchester City respectively.

Arsenal remain winless in 10 visits to Anfield in the Premier League, drawing three and losing seven times, while conceding at least twice in each match.
