ARSENAL icon Ian Wright admits he's "worried" about the Gunners' "sloppy" start their Premier League campaign.
And Wrighty has pinpointed one big error in Mikel Arteta's team selections.
The title-chasing Gunners won their first two Premier League games this season, beating Nottingham Forest and Crystal Palace.
But they failed to show last season's form in either of those victories.
And they fell to a last-gasp 2-2 draw against Fulham at the Emirates on Saturday.
Wright, 59, was far from impressed with his old side's "sloppy" performance.

He told Premier League productions: " I'm a little bit worried. There is a bit of sloppy play.
"I think they need to tighten up at the start of games.
"There were times when I was watching the game and I felt nervous for us.
"We don’t seem to be as confident as I thought we could have been in managing the game once we got back into it when we were 2-1 up."

Defender Gabriel was central to the Gunners' shock title push last season.
But Arteta has stunned fans by leaving him on the bench so far this season, with Ben White shifting into the middle and Thomas Partey playing as in inverted right-back.
The decision has surprised Wright, with the former striker claiming the "organiser" would have prevented Joao Palhinha's late Fulham equaliser.
He continued: " I think that’s a little bit of a worry because there are things that happen.
"I know the fans are a little bit worried about Gabriel not playing, he gives us solidity in there.
"And then when they score that goal at the death there, from the corner, it’s something our big defender would be there.
"There is no Gabriel, as I said, to be that organiser."
Gabriel's recent spell on the bench has led to speculation suggesting he could be shown the exit door, with a number of Saudi Arabian clubs interested.
