Arsenal already has three red cards.This is more than they received in the past two seasons combined
London's Arsenal suffered a defeat against Bournemouth in the eighth round of the English Premier League. The key moment that influenced the result was the red card given to William Saliba in the middle of the first half.
Details: Notably, Saliba's red card was already the third for Arsenal players this Premier League season, setting a record among all the teams in the league.
Earlier this season, Declan Rice (in a match against Brighton) and Leandro Trossard (in a game against Manchester City) also received red cards.
Reminder: In the first eight rounds of the 2024/25 season, Arsenal has accumulated more red cards than in the previous two seasons combined — during those 76 matches, the team only received two red cards.
It's also worth noting that Arsenal not only lost for the first time in six months, but now risks falling behind Liverpool and Manchester City in the race for the top spot.
