Cellabos, Luiz and Lacazette all start. Willock and Nelson keep their places

According to Sky the team is:

Team to play Burnley: Leno, Maitland-Niles, Luiz, Sokratis, Monreal, Guendouzi, Nelson, Willock, Ceballos, Lacazette, Aubameyang

Subs: Martinez, Mkhitaryan, Torreira, Pépé, Chambers, Kolasinac, Martinelli

A few surprises for me. This will be a bloody tough game I think. I pwrsonally would have Torreira on the field to start.

When everyone is fit there is some strength in depth, players not in the squad today, Bellerin, Tierney, Özil, mustafi, Holding, Xhaka, Smith-rowe, saka

The commentator said we haven't won our first 2 league matches in 10 years. Amazingly sad stat.

Good seeing Arsenal legend Freddie on the bench with the coaching staff.

Lacazette!!!!! 1-0

So even if the league turns into a procession year after year you won't mind so long as Spurs, Liverpool, Chelsea and United don't win?

I'd rather see a good scrap between two or more of those, even if Arsenal are out of the mix, thanks.

Some player name shortcuts:

According to the commentator Guendouzi hasn't scored for us yet.

1 all ...

Saw that coming ...

I'm going to put that error on Luiz. Good game up to that point but he didn't cover Barnes.

uuuuhhhhhgggrrggghhh!! Getting a bit pissed off with how many times they're in slightly late in the challenge and Dicksplat with the whistle plays on and forgets the sheer volume of niggly fouls from the *%^@ kickers. We need to show some steel in midfield and stop dropping off. We still win this in my mind.

Kind of typical arsenal. Lots of the ball not enough cut and thrust and give away a cheap goal with far too much space on a counter attack.

Ref needs to get hold of all the law kicks, it’s fine that in most of them he has played the correct advantage to us, but he won’t register those as fouls and book players for accumulation. Burnley are the masters or the needless late kick.

Cellabos has looked good. Aubameyang wide nullifies so much of his game.

Var correctly rules out a Nelson goal but there was an earlier one that sent Monreal away with two up for support that was very tight. I thought the idea with var was that linos let it go if it’s toght and let var deal with it.

We scored early and then played fu@@en tippy tappy. Leno looked totally out of his class every time there was a corner and we tried to be too clever time in our own half all the time. Hardly any long balls where we were able to make them struggle.

I am more than a little pissed off with that half of football because we failed to try and break quickly instead being happy to square the ball or play it back. Too often our forward players were taking the ball with their back to the goal.

I didn't think there were any bad players on the field but I really liked the effort from Ceballos and Guendouzi. our central defence have struggled with the high ball.

I’m not sure Sokratis and Luiz is going to be a good pair.

I think you might need some younger legs from Chambers or Holding alongside one of them as they can react to danger better.

We have to find a way to sort our defence. Every cross, corner, long ball is causing us all sort of issues both individually and collectively.

Leno has to be more commanding as well. To many half-hearted punches.

Time for Pépé I think. We need to get goals because Burnley look like they could score another easily.

Less fannying around please

Pépé on for RN

Ceballos for Aaron Ramsey is an upgrade

I would agree with you, but there's a question there about goals scored

AMN needs to a bit better decision making and a bit more sense of urgency in dangerous positions near the box.

..but to be fair, he needs games under his belt and will get better as he gets more experience.

Aubameyang so close!

Ramsey May score more but based on Ceballos combination play I’d suggest Ceballos will create way more.

Yeah think he will

COME ON!!!

2 - 1 - Bit of breathing room ...

Tackle high up the pitch, who was it that said liverpool winning the ball high is their playmaker?

Loving Ceballos celebrating that goal. Love how happy he was.

We're going to win the league!!

And AGAIN late on Guendouzi!!

Aubie and Lacazette our Yorke and Cole

Torreira on for Willock for me. He's just dropped a bit.

Burnley seem to have finally tired a bit

haha, cheers from the crowd as Leno signals he's going long

Aubie should have scored. Criminal he didn't even get a shot off.

Burnley finally get a yellow card and it's Barnes ruining their last attack. I think that's the just desserts I was looking for. Pépé - a really poor ball to Aubameyang when they were 2 on 1 - nailed on goal if he gets that right, but some nice flashes from him, more and more promising. We should have scored at lease one more from the chances we had a think. Bit concerning with defensive frailty and playing out from the back was hit and miss if i'm being generous - we did have at least one great attack when we swept through them. But underwhelming overall if I'm honest bit like the Newcastle result, but two wins out of two. Don't think we'll get anything at all from Liverpool away on these two performances so far.

Well we got the points but jeez there were some problems exposed in our match plan. Closed down time and again at the back. Luis really needs to clear the ball with his head more than 6 metres right to their players and Leno on crosses and corners -OMG.

The positives were Guendouzi, Ceballos, Pépé and I thought Willock did some good things but not often enough. We play like that next week and we will be slaughtered.
