Arsenal continued their perfect start to the season on Saturday evening, with Gabriel Magalhaes delivering a late winner to complete a comeback victory ...

After having little chance with Mitrovic's opener, Ramsdale flung himself to his left to keep out a header from the Serbian which could have restored the visitors' lead late on. Leno himself made a number of saves, including a strong hand to deny Gabriel Martinelli with just minutes remaining. “I wanted to watch a lot of clips and moments after he was conceding a goal, making a mistake or sort of difficult moments," the manager added. Leno began the season as first choice, but lost his place early in the campaign and was unable to claim it back. It will have been hard for Arteta not to have felt vindicated on Saturday. It was also a game in which one of Arteta's more decisive transfer decisions came into full focus, with former Gunners goalkeeper Bernd Leno facing his former club.

Arsenal defender Ben White has told Viaplay Fotball that he was really impressed with what Gabriel Magalhaes did against Fulham yesterday.

He added: “Yeah it’s tough against a big man [Mitrovic].

ARSENAL maintained their 100 per-cent winning start to the Premier League season on Saturday.

Keys added: “They trailed for a long time today,” before Gray continued: “That’s something they will have to do. It comes following criticism of Arsenal after they won top-flight games last season. The first goal from Odegaard is a deflection, otherwise they don’t score. “I don’t think the players will. Sometimes that helps, and that might just be the difference this year. They have won a London derby.” I wouldn’t say it’s dangerous.” “I don’t think they will [get carried away],” Gray hit back. Waving his arms around like a windmill for 90 minutes. But they haven’t won the [Premier League] title tonight. And they trailed at one time. Goals by Martin Odegaard and Gabriel sealed a gallant victory for Arsenal, having fallen behind after Aleksandar Mitrovic’s strike.

For sure, after the Liverpool game, the Arsenal coaching staff and analytics department have studied the patterns and tactics of the Cottagers in detail. Fulham are capable of scoring, but Arsenal play at home and here they are very convincing (picked 41 of 69 points last season). Although this result (2-0) can be put down to the fact that the coach decided to give the youngsters a chance and used the minimum of core players. The boys have trained exceptionally well this week again, and we just have to put in another good performance and earn the right to win.” “They are in a good moment, it will be tough for us, but we are in a good moment as well. The Cottagers have a good chance of scoring against Arsenal as well, as they have scored at least one goal in 9 of their last 12 head-to-head games. Afther that, the Londoners, finally achieved the A+ result beating [Brentford](https://www.brentfordfc.com/) (3-2) (quite a capable side that recently thrashed [Man Utd](https://www.manutd.com/) 4-0). Fulham have just returned to the elite of English football, and the balance of Marco Silva’s team is still seriously lacking. By the end of the summer transfer window, it would be fair to say that this is a fully refreshed and rethought squad. [Manchester City](https://www.mancity.com/) can now match them in terms of goalproducing. The Gunners will try to extend their winning streak and cement their top spot, while the newly arrived Cottagers will try to repeat their triumph against Liverpool and stun againt the team of the much higher class. Right now, the Red&Whites are clearly outstanding, not only in terms of results, but also in terms of play.

Well what a nerve-wracking game, Arsenal looked totally in control all through the game, with Bernd Leno playing like Gordon Banks for Fulham.

Classic way to get the points and must be watched. Odegaard may have got a lucky deflection to get the equaliser but it was still deserved, and how determined was Gabriel to get involved in the winner. [Gabriel made a horrendous mistake](https://www.justarsenal.com/watch-fulham-sucker-punch-arsenal-after-gabriel-fluffs-his-lines-at-the-back/317758) with loads of time on his hands and the Arsenal had a mountain to climb, but they showed a lot of fight to get back into the game.

Michael Owen has stated that he was 'screaming' at Gabriel Martinelli's 'poor' corners during Arsenal's win against Fulham.

It was a poor delivery even though he had a good game. He gets an ‘oooh’ from the crowd, but it was a poor corner. “But you know if you are going to try to punch, then you have to go through bodies and that’s what Leno had to do.
