Even though he didn't get many chances, Raul was able to see the gap from the Arsenal defense players and scored a goal to equalize the score. To be honest, I didn't think that Raul would be able to move that quickly and convert the pass into an goal from a rather difficult angle because of Kiwior obstacles and Raya position was actually near the direction the ball went in, but whatever the story, we all know that every season Arsenal are unable to consistently maintain their playing performance especially on Boxing Day like now, Arsenal defeat should be a warning to Arteta about the depth of their squad currently, if arsenal not yet able to become champion contenders, in fact there is still a chance for Arteta to improve his team in the transfer market later, but what I fear is that as usual, Arsenal owners will be reluctant to spend a lot of money to recruit players.

Arsenal is no longer the team that has a winning mentality like before, so it is natural that they are not able to maintain their best form even when they are leading the standings. Arteta certainly needs to learn many things from failure that will allow him to do something better for Arsenal's future. Arsenal's squad is good, but they have to be mentally strong to withstand the pressure in a crucial match.

The defeat to Fulham was a sign that Arsenal were not ready to fight for the title until the end of the season, but they were still on the right track to try to do it again until the end of the season. If Liverpool lose to Newcastle today, then Arsenal should be one of the teams that benefits.
