LONDON (AP) — Arsenal is limping into 2024 after a damaging stretch of results that culminated in what coach Mikel Arteta called “the worst performance of the season” on the final day of the year. A toothless Arsenal side lost 2-1 at Fulham despite taking the lead in the fifth minute. It’s a second straight defeat that means the team stayed in fourth place in the Premier League when a victory would have lifted it into first. Arsenal would have provisionally climbed above Liverpool atop the table with a win. It is now just one point ahead of fifth-place Tottenham after its north London rival beat Bournemouth 3-1 at home.
