Arsenal overtook rivals Tottenham at the top of the Premier League table after a thumping 5-0 win against Leeds United. Goals from Jurrien Timber (34', 56') after corners, Bukayo Saka (45+1') and Viktor Gyokeres (48', 90+4') sealed an easy win.

Odegaard initially tried to soldier on, but Arteta erred on the side of caution with his captain and sent on Ethan Nwaneri, who is expected to predominantly play centrally from hereon in after acting as Saka's deputy on the right last season.
