Arsenal Takes Early Lead In Premier League

With only five matches played, Arsenal consolidated their place at the top of the Premier League as they piled more misery on Steven Gerrard with a 2-1 win over Aston Villa.

The Gunners sit top of the table heading into September after wins over Crystal Palace, Leicester, Bournemouth, Fulham and Aston Villa.

Summer signing Gabriel Jesus has been a catalyst in leading Arsenal forward, whilst the return of William Saliba in defence has added confidence and composure at the back.

The Gunners have again come away with all three points as they head into a busy period of the season in the lead-up to the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.
