Can you believe that they’re both only 21 years old? I’m 21 years old, and I can declaratively say that I don’t think I could get a double-digit goal tally in the Premier League. But these two are seriously special, and it’s incredible to have two players leading the charge in the title race.

Saka is now one assist away from double digits in both goals and assists this season. Martinelli has taken the top-scorer mantle with his brace on Wednesday. What a team, and what a pair of incredible players.

If you’re a frequent reader of this column, you probably knew this was coming. I hate being too negative after a match like this; let’s do some rapid-fire.

Zinchenko was incredible, as always, a player without a position.

Gabriel is just such a rock and has been one of, if not the best, centre-backs in the league this season.

Emile Smith Rowe was back at the Emirates! Great to see him back on the pitch, and I’ll be knee-sliding in my living room for his first goal this season.

Arsenal have finally gotten rid of the game in hand! Arsenal are finally level on matches with City and now officially five points clear again.
