#2 Defence an area of concern?
The Gunners defense was thought to be one of the better ones in the league, but lately, they have been shipping in goals.
Just two clean sheets in eight games in the league isn't exactly good for a title-challenging team but Arsenal does seem to have problems at the back.
When Arsenal beat Brighton & drew at Anfield they looked to be in a really strong position.

They've surrendered that pretty spectacularly.
Zoom out, and it's now 1 win from 5, 11 of 15 points dropped.
Today's performance the worst of the season by some distance.
A bad day. pic.twitter.com/EsqUxyyS3s
Arsenal have conceded 10 goals in just seven games as their goal difference has taken a hit over the last month.
