Arteta rues 'small margins' but are Arsenal too reliant on set pieces?

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta may have laughed off comparisons with Stoke City earlier this week but the Gunners once again had set-piece coach Nicolas Jover to thank following their draw with Fulham at Craven Cottage.

William Saliba scored the visitors' equaliser with a tap-in six minutes into the second half, after a routine that saw Kai Havertz nod Declan Rice's corner into the Frenchman's path.

It was another in a long line of brilliant set-piece plays crafted by Jover, who has transformed the club's success in this area of the game since joining from Manchester City in 2021.
