The good times appear to be back for Arsenal as they secured their third consecutive victory on Saturday; hitting Leeds United 4-1 in their Premier League clash at Elan Road.
Gabriel Martinelli’s double helped the Gunners to the big win over the depleted Leeds United team as they consolidated their place in the top four.
Martinelli’s brace and Bukayo Saka’s strike punished some woeful defending, and although Raphinha’s penalty reduced the arrears, substitute Emile Smith Rowe added another goal to seal the emphatic victory.
It is an open secret that Arsenal’s major target this season is Champions League qualification, and they are not doing badly in that quest at all.
Indeed, with so many other games cancelled this weekend, they are assured of being four points clear of fifth place at Christmas.
It is still not clear whether the season will continue or be paused owing to the rising positive coronavirus case.
If the season continues, Arsenal are billed to face relegation battlers Norwich City in their next game, while Leeds face a daunting trip to Anfield where they will be guest to Liverpool..
