ARTETA'S DEFENCE IS OUT OF THIS WORLD

Mikel Arteta’s side have started this season on a mission. They are four points clear at the top of the Premier League after nine games, having lost just once.

Even more impressively, the Gunners have conceded only three goals during this period. A defence that usually features Jurrien Timber (inset), Gabriel, William Saliba and Riccardo Calafiori is statistically the best in the topflight.
