    Arsenal 1-0 Burnley

    Burnley haven't let their game plan disintegrate since that scrappy opener. Solid and patient.

    Arsenal 1-0 Burnley

    This set-piece comes to nothing after David Luiz - who has been the most influential player so far - trying to thread a through ball to a team-mate in the Burnley box.

    Arsenal spring forward on the attack, winning a corner when Ainsley Maitland-Niles sticks on the burners to pop up on the right wing.

    Arsenal 1-0 Burnley

    Burnley sense set-pieces might be where they can have some success.

    Another right-wing corner is whipped into the Gunners's penalty area, Bernd Leno not instilling any confidence in his defence with another walkabout off his line.

    The German can't take command of the situation as Ben Mee tries to turn the ball home. The scene resembles a rugby scrum, bodies everywhere trying to get hold of the ball, before David Luiz mops up.

    Great save! Leno redeems himself somewhat, showing cat-like reactions to change direction and beat away Ashley Barnes' close-range header.

    Ah, actually it doesn't matter. Barnes is flagged offside as he pounces on James Tarkowski's downward header from the corner. Leno didn't know, of course.

    Worrying signs from Arsenal at that set piece...

    Safety first! Bernd Leno leaves his line for a cross into the Arsenal box, but David Luiz takes no chances as he heads clear for a corner. Right decision. Not sure Leno would have got there.

    BtheG: Typical Lacazette goal, a result of hard work.

    Michael Haimes: Arsenal's acquisition of Luiz could be the shrewdest business of the summer. He's won trophies everywhere he's gone, and he'll bring a much needed arrogance to that notoriously nervous back line.

    Kyle: Brilliant striker's goal from Lacazette. Super strength and finish from him. Ceballos has been superb he is top drawer and going to be a big player for Arsenal this season.

    There are three, four defenders around him. He should not be able to get that shot away. It’s great play by Lacazette, great positioning but really poor defending. Sean Dyche won’t be happy with that.

    Sean Dyche will be furious! Erik Pieters (and Nick Pope) could be getting the hairdryer at half-time.

    Burnley don't clear their lines following another Dani Ceballos set-piece, Alexandre Lacazette showing the strength of a WWE wrestler to hold off Pieters and fire through the legs of Pope.

    The France striker is up and running for the new campaign!

    Sulaimon Adelekan: Everybody is expecting Arsenal to win this one but Burnley can stop them. Burnley should beware of Aubameyang, he knows how to put them to bed and also for the EPL football fantasy.

    Alan: Difficult to keep track of Guendouzi and Luiz because of their similar hairstyle.

    Looks like Dani Ceballos has got dibs on the Arsenal set-pieces in Mesut Ozil's absence. A wicked corner flashes across the face of the Burnley goal and is headed out for a corner.

    Moments later, a sharp header from Alexandre Lacazette forces Clarets keeper Nick Pope into a smart save.

    Arsenal pressing...

    Freddie Ljungberg is back at Arsenal. Although he looks like he's been hitting the weights - and the tattoo parlour - since we last saw him. The Gunners' new first-team assistant coach is watching on intently.

    Arsenal go on the attack, for the first time really, Reiss Nelson whipping a shot towards the far right corner.

    Not enough curl from the youngster and the ball goes out for a goal kick.

    David Luiz will be David Luiz.

    Those Gunners of a nervous disposition might not enjoy watching Arsenal's new signing, who miscontrols a pass in his own area and then whips the ball across the face of his goal to new partner Sokratis.

    Phew.

    Early sighter for Burnley. Johann Berg Gudmundsson stretches his legs as he gets behind the Arsenal defence on the right, curling in towards Ashley Barnes but the ball goes over him.

    Arsenal can't clear properly though, Ainsley Maitland-Niles and David Luiz both with weak headers, allowing Erik Pieters to scoop a volley wide.

    Mark Lawrenson
    Ex-Liverpool defender on Football Focus

    I think David Luiz is a very good footballer, I don’t think he’s a good defender. As good as Arsenal undoubtedly are going forward, we’re still looking at them defensively.

    I still think they’re missing a leader in defence. They’ve signed an awful lot of defenders over the years, but they’ve never really replaced the likes of Adams, Bould and Keown.

    Early touch for David Luiz as he looks to settle into his Arsenal career. Or was it Matteo Guendouzi. This is going to be a nightmare.
