Major Mikel Arteta Arsenal decision rewarded in Fulham win amid Edu transfer strategy

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has made a number of key decisions since taking charge at the Emirates Stadium.

Arteta chose to convince Granit Xhaka to stay at the club when his Arsenal future looked all but over, revoked Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang's captaincy role and chose to replace Bernd Leno with Aaron Ramsdale as the Gunners' no.1 goalkeeper last summer. The north London outfit have seen plenty of changes throughout Arteta's tenure as manager, but his decisions are beginning to be rewarded following Arsenal's impressive start to the season.

Leno was allowed to leave the club this summer in search of regular football after he fell down the pecking order under the Spaniard. The German goalkeeper returned to the Emirates Stadium for the first time since leaving the Gunners, but it wasn't a happy return as Arteta was rewarded for his decision.
