William Saliba made an impressive start to his Arsenal career against Crystal Palace on the opening day.
The 21-year-old made some crucial blocks, interceptions and looked comfortable in possession on his Gunners debut as they earned a 2-0 victory at Selhurst Park. However, the Frenchman scored a comical own-goal to hand Leicester a lifeline in Arsenal's second game of the campaign on Saturday.
A long, hopeful ball from Jonny Evans was flicked on by James Justin into the path of Jamie Vardy, but with Aaron Ramsdale coming out to collect, Saliba headed the ball beyond his goalkeeper and into the back of the net. It did not influence the end result, however, as Arsenal ran out 4-2 winners to make it six points from a possible six.
