Aston Villa's winless start to the season continued as champions Arsenal won one nil at Villa Park, Bukayo Saka scoring the only goal on a night of three Villa debuts. Ezri Konsa returned to B6 in Arsenal colours to a mixed reception from the Holte End. With the transfer window closing tonight, Villa are reportedly readying an offer for Manchester United winger Amad Diallo, though United's own stance is said to be firmly against a sale. Villa have also sent Lino Sousa and Josh Feeney out on season long loans, to Shrewsbury Town and Peterborough United.
