Olympiacos and West Ham were never in the game. Possession and chances were heavily tilted towards Arsenal, who probably should have scored at least one more in both games. Liverpool was beaten by Palace last week and Chelsea yesterday, so a five point Liverpool lead has turned into their trailing us by a point. Just seven games in, though; there will be many a twist and turn this season.
We can't keep Odegaard on the field. He'll be out for a few weeks with an MCL tear. He's the least replaceable Gunner, with the possible exception of our sole central striker Gyokeres, but we are not short of fit, talented midfielders. Zubimendi came in and we only got more efficient.
