Arsenal surged further ahead in the Premier League, bolstering their lead by three points and significantly boosting their goal difference with a commanding victory over Chelsea at the Emirates Stadium.
Fresh from triumph against Wolverhampton Wanderers, the Gunners showcased formidable form against a struggling Chelsea outfit. Despite recent setbacks versus Aston Villa and Bayern Munich, Arsenal's emphatic win underscored their renewed championship ambitions under Mikel Arteta.
The match kicked off with an early strike from Leandro Trossard, followed by goals from Ben White and Kai Havertz, sealing the triumph. With this outcome, Arsenal comfortably occupies the league's summit with a goal difference of +56, outshining closest rivals Liverpool and Manchester City.
Though Arsenal faithfuls may have approached the Chelsea clash with caution following a lackluster display against Aston Villa, the team swiftly stamped their authority with Trossard's opener, gradually regaining their attacking prowess and rhythm.
Facing a less than formidable Chelsea side, Arteta's squad exuded confidence as they unleashed a flurry of goals in the second half, a morale boost before the pivotal North London derby against Tottenham Hotspur.
Captain Odegaard played a pivotal role, exhibiting composure and finesse throughout, notably setting up Havertz's second goal with a sublime assist.
Each match serves as a litmus test for Arsenal's character, especially given their past season's collapse and recent setbacks.
However, victories over Wolves and the thrashing of Chelsea underscore the resilience they've cultivated this campaign.
Indeed, Arsenal could have secured an even more resounding victory given their dominance, with Havertz's brace against his former club adding to the satisfaction of the win.
The forthcoming encounter against Spurs carries significant weight for both teams and the Premier League title race. Nonetheless, Arsenal's morale is buoyant following this triumph and stellar performance.
