The Gunners have begun a league season without a point or goal from their opening two games for the first time in more than a century of competition
A second consecutive Premier League defeat has condemned Arsenal to their worst-ever start to a season in their 118 seasons of league competition.
Having gone down 2-0 to Brentford on the opening day last Friday, the Gunners came unstuck by the same margin to another London rival, this time Chelsea.
The mood is less than upbeat around Emirates Stadium right now, and finding out they have hit a new low is unlikely to raise spirits.
