Pedro Neto and Daniel Podence scored to sink the Gunners in another loss, with defender Gabriel scoring for Arsenal in a 2-1 loss.

The loss was Arsenal’s third consecutive loss in the Premier League and means that their start to the season is the worst in 39 years.

Arsenal's loss to Wolves was the fifth of the Premier League season in the first ten games.

The Gunners sit 14th in the table after ten games, but, a year after the day since Unai Emery was fired as head coach, Arteta insists he is not concerned about his own position.

He said: ‘It’s something that the day I decided to be a coach I know that one day I will be fired or I will leave the football club.

‘I don’t know if it’s the day after I sign my contact, in a month, a year or six months. I never worry about it.

“My only concern is getting the best out of the players, giving the best possible service to the club and getting better and better.

‘I know, I repeat, in this profession, one day they will fire me or I will leave but I don’t know when that will happen.’

It has been a terrible start to the season for the Gunners who have also lost to Aston Villa, Leicester City, Manchester City and Liverpool.

The match was an opportunity for Arsenal to close the gap to the top to just five points, but the Gunners looked mediocre on goal.

The Spaniard played down any concerns about losing his job as Gunners manager.

A concern for Arsenal is the form of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, who has only scored two goals this season, despite battling for the Golden Boot in recent seasons.

The Lobos did well to recover from the defeat of Raúl Jiménez, who was injured after a nasty head clash with David Luiz after an Arsenal corner.

The Gunners reacted well to Neto’s goal in the 27th minute, with Gabriel scoring just three minutes later.

However, Podence scored a great Wolves goal to hand the points to Nuno Espirito Santo’s team three minutes before the break.
