Even without his goals Ødegaard is having an absolute stormer. Killing them with class.

Saliba is absolute class

Fans created a song for Saliba, nice

If you have players who can take receipt of the ball and play very comfortably on the half turn under pressure it makes such a difference. Zinchenko and Jesus have really added that.

All of a sudden there seems more dimensions to our play and it doesn’t matter so much that xhaka is paceless and has limitations because he’s 1 part of the whole cog and the things he does well add value whilst he’s not getting caught anymore.

Only negative is this should be all over by now. Great stuff

Not much to complain about here. I guess we could've scored another goal or two, but we're in complete control. A gulf of quality between the teams. 2-0 leads are never as secure as you'd want though, we need to remain vigilant in the second half. All it takes is a scrappy Bournemouth goal for them to feel like they can get something.

White looked offside from one angle but then from another was clearly onside.

That was a great first half, we are playing like a well-oiled machine.

Crazy that this game is still sort of alive

I wonder if Man City have got any other players s that we could have. What an upgrade in class (both of them).

Keep it tight for 15 lads. Let them run themselves out.

1 mistimed foul 1 booking for Jesus. Zero margin for error for Arsenal players

Saliba *%^@*** hell

Careful there Ramsdale, don't get careless

Saliba!!!

Saliba!! What an absolute stunner!

Saliba!!!!!!!

Saliba !!!!!

Credit to Xhaka for the good assist

Or just score a third eh?>

Zinchenkos reaction to the goal.

He’s hysterical

Saliba !!

What's there to protest? Clear yellow card, Smith.

Time to rest a few Mikel.

Time for some subs? Seems like an ideal game to give VIeira, Nketiah and Smith-Rowe some proper minutes

I thought Xhaka had scored.
Didn't realise it was Saliba until a few seconds later.
Delighted for him.
What a strike.
Come on Arteta.
Make some changes.
Get Eddie Emile Smith Rowe and views on.
Keep the whole squad involved.
Can't burn these players out.

Jesus deserves that.

Ring the changes mikel.

Time to open a bottle

Even more quality. Ødegaard and Jesus combo.

Jesus!! Brilliant assist by Ødegaard

If you can’t tell it’s a goal.

Deserved goal for Jesus ahh looks offside

Jesus !!!!!!

Aw, offside

That’s ridiculous

Sigh. VAR. That was tight.

Ah, too bad. Jesus deserved that

*%^@ and clogged like Smith who end players careers.
Martinelli was lucky there

Literally relying on television pixels to tell of it’s a goal or not. Absurd sport

*cloggers

There is a song being sung throughout the grounds that I can't make heads or tails out of. I assume its sung by our fans since we are winning, but it resembles the old 50s (or was it 60s?) song 'Tequila' and they seem to replace with Saliba possibly? Not sure.

Yeah - Exactly that.

The Champs I think from memory.

Sloppy there Xhaka

So, with Ødegaard scoring two today, Saka has actually been the worst attacking player in our starting eleven so far this season...didn't see that coming!
