Arsenal thrash Bournemouth

Arsenal on Saturday thrash Bournemouth 3-0 away from home to move top of the English Premier League.

The Gunners have thus won their first three matches of the season, the first time in 18 years.

The form of the Gunners has been extremely superb this season, scoring lots of goals and plying with precision and purpose.

Martin Odegaard was the hero of the match, grabbing a brace in the first half.

He puts Arsenal ahead on five minutes, as he was the quickest to react to the rebound inside the box and stabbed the ball into the back of the net.
