Arsenal Pull Seven Points Clear as United Held and Wolves Suffer Another Heavy Defeat

Relentless defending with set‑piece precision underpins Arsenal's early surge.

Overview

  • Arsenal won 2-0 at Burnley through first‑half headers from Viktor Gyokeres and Declan Rice, extending their lead to seven points before the rest of the weekend slate.
  • Arteta’s team recorded a seventh straight clean sheet and have conceded only three league goals, with the opener again arriving from a rehearsed dead‑ball routine.
  • Manchester United drew 2-2 at Nottingham Forest as Amad Diallo’s late volley salvaged a point after Forest overturned Casemiro’s opener, stretching United’s unbeaten run to four.
  • Wolves lost 3-0 at Fulham after Emmanuel Agbadou’s red card, leaving them bottom on two points from 10 matches and intensifying scrutiny on manager Vitor Pereira.
  • Liverpool’s slide continued to frame the weekend narrative after six defeats in seven and a 3-0 Carabao Cup exit with a heavily rotated side, drawing fresh criticism of defensive frailties and summer recruitment ahead of Aston Villa’s visit.
