Arsenal have passed their first real test of the season, according to BBC News, seeing off a Chelsea side that had also started the campaign with two wins from two and exposing clear frailties in their rivals' defence.
The victory keeps the Gunners level with Manchester City as the only two clubs in the division still boasting a 100% winning record after their opening fixtures.
While the BBC's analysis stops short of full match details, the message is clear: Mikel Arteta's side showed they can go toe-to-toe with genuine title rivals and come out on top, while Chelsea's defensive issues remain a work in progress for Enzo Maresca.
For Arsenal, it's an early statement of intent — proof that their perfect start wasn't just built on favourable fixtures, but on genuine quality against a side many expected to push them close.
