Premier League: Arsenal thrash Forest

-

Arsenal 5 - 0 Nottingham Forest

Arsenal returned to winning ways in convincing fashion at the Emirates, with Reiss Nelson coming off the bench to score a brace.

Gabriel Martinelli set them on the way early on with a flying header, but it wasn’t until the second half that they took control.

Nelson netted twice in quick succession before a Thomas Partey screamer made it 4-0.

Martin Odegaard crashed home the fifth after being set up by Gabriel Jesus, as we recorded our biggest win of the season. 

The victory was Arsenal's 300th all-time at the Emirates, and took The Gunners back to the top of the Premier League table.

One Arsenal fan was full of praise for Gabriel Jesus and commented on the video: "Gabriel Jesus might not be scoring goals as expected but his fluidity is helping arsenal score more goals as a team."

Another added: "The unity connection with our supporters is on another level. I have never seen our fanbase so harmonized."

We also spoke with a number of Arsenal fans outside the ground

This fan is really with their current situation: "The fact that we are top and already have 10 wins out of 12 matches is amazing considering that we only managed 22 wins last season and still missed out on the top 4."

DJ, an Arsenal fan from Manchester, added: "I have to say, I was Skeptical when Reiss came on, game even slowed down for a minute there but oh my what a performance and what a statement he made today!"

There has been a managerial change at Old Trafford. Manchester United have sacked manager Erik ten Hag due to the club's disappointing start to the season. Author - Olivia T Ten Hag's last match ended in a 2-1 defeat against West Ham , leaving the club in 14th place in the Premier League with only three wins from their first nine matches. The Red Devils are also 21st of 36 teams in the Europa League league stage, having drawn their three opening matches. Club sources from the club have reportedly suggested that this was a difficult decision but a unanimous one among all the key decision makers.  The club exercised a one-year extension in Ten Hag's contract after their FA Cup final win against Manchester City in May .

Author - Olivia T Just two days after stepping in following Erik ten Hag's dismissal , Van Nistelrooy’s call for an exciting performance was more than delivered by his players. Casemiro got the party started with a stunning long-range strike and went on to score again before half-time. After an initial header rattled off both posts, the Brazilian reacted quickly to slot the ball in from eight yards out. Alejandro Garnacho contributed his fifth goal of the season , and captain Bruno Fernandes had a bit of luck with his free-kick, which deflected off Leicester’s James Justin and into the net. Defensively, United weren’t flawless. Some familiar issues allowed Bilal El Khannouss and Conor Coady to pull goals back for Leicester before the break. Coady’s finish, a firs
