Arsenal have recorded their first emphatic win of the new Premier League season, dismantling Leeds United with a commanding 5-0 victory at the Emirates Stadium.

By the 56th minute, the Gunners had already fired four goals past a helpless Leeds defence, showcasing the kind of attacking fluidity that manager Mikel Arteta has been fine-tuning for seasons.

Double Delight for Timber and Gyökeres

Jurrien Timber, back in full form, bagged a surprise brace from defence — while newly signed striker Viktor Gyökeres also scored twice in a standout home debut for the Swedish international.

To top it off, Bukayo Saka added his name to the scoresheet with a superb strike. That goal marked his 54th in the Premier League, moving the 23-year-old into the top 10 all-time Premier League scorers for Arsenal.
