Gilberto can still see a Silva lining for Arteta

ARSENAL legend Gilberto Silva insists it is too early to hit the panic button despite the Gunners’ disappointing start to the Premier League season.

Mikel Arteta’s men have fallen nine points behind Premier League pacesetters Liverpool with defeats to Newcastle and Bournemouth denting their hopes of dethroning champions Manchester City.

A string of injuries and suspensions haven’t helped Arsenal’s case either, with summer signing Riccardo Calafiori out with a knee injury, Martin Odegaard missing a dozen games, and England duo Declan Rice and Bukayo Saka also hurt.
