using array elements for pattern matching in perl
===

A newbie to Perl and regexes without saying, I am trying to use elements in an array in a perl regex. Here is the snippet

    my $temp  = $line =~ s/somestring[^\n]*$_// for @myarray;
  
If I hard code the string instead of $_ it works fine. Also $_ prints the string fine in isolation. So what am I doing wrong? Even the expanded version of using a for loop doesn't yield a match.

P.S Just to clarify the array has just one element and I know it matches the line.
