The first goalless draw of the Mikel Arteta era, but this was a tale of big chances squandered at both ends.
Burnley had more than their fair share of those, but it probably would have been a comfortable afternoon for us if our two most experienced strikers hadn't uncharacteristically squandered early opportunities.
Alex Lacazette nodded wide when Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang's cross found him completely free six yards out. And the captain himself got it wrong when put through by David Luiz's ball over the top.
Those misses sparked Burnley into life and they came right back into the match, Jay Rodriguez forcing a fine save from Bernd Leno.
