Summary
Amy Lawrence and Adrian Clarke join Ian Stone to work out what went wrong against Fulham for Arsenal to concede two eminently avoidable goals. The team discuss Thomas Partey's place in the line up, Kai Havertz against Fabio Vieira, and praise Eddie Nketiah whilst pondering why he didn't start.
Plus all hail Bukayo Saka and his 83 consecutive Premier League starts, what could happen with ESR and say "hasta luego" to Kieran Tierney
Produced by: Abi Paterson
