Arsenal have thumped newly promoted Leeds United at the Emirates Stadium. The Gunners were heavy favourites to make two wins from two at the start of the new season, and got the job done in emphatic fashion thus setting them up nicely for next weekend's showdown with reigning champions Liverpool at Anfield.

Mikel Arteta's side were by no means at their fluent best in the 1-0 win over Manchester United six days ago, but his players defended resolutely and showed plenty of character to pick up three points. That said, there was a big improvement on performance today as they scored five without reply.

Jurrien Timber and summer signing Viktor Gyokeres each scored twice, while Bukayo Saka opened his account for the season with a powerful finish. Another three points in the bag, however, on a night of intent from Arsenal - following their unveiling of new signing Eberechi Eze - there were injury scares for both Saka and Martin Odgeaard.
