Arsenal continue to make a compelling case as Premier League title favourites, according to BBC News, after another statement performance saw them turn on the style against Chelsea.
Nine points from three games and just one goal conceded tell their own story, with Kai Havertz and Martin Odegaard both stepping up to torment Chelsea in a result that will have sent a message to their rivals.
Notably, Mikel Arteta's side have managed this form without bringing in fresh firepower up front — a fact BBC News highlights as evidence that Arsenal's strength runs deeper than one marquee striker signing. Instead, it's been the contribution of established figures like Havertz and Odegaard driving the team forward.
With defensive solidity underpinning their attacking threat, the report poses the question of whether Arsenal remain a cut above the chasing pack in the race for the title — early signs, at least, suggest they're not short of answers regardless of who lines up in attack.
