A masterful performance from Eddie Nketiah gave the Gunners all the breathing space they needed as the young striker bagged his first Premier League hat-trick for the club.
The 24-year-old put his team in front in the 28th minute with a fine finish from a sloppy cross by Declan Rice.
The Gunners pilled on the pressure and their efforts got rewarded as Nketiah bagged his second just after the half-time break after an error from the visitor’s goalkeeper.
The 24-year-old secured his hat-trick just 8 minutes later after a phenomenal strike.
Arsenal continued free sailing as two goals at the end rounded off the final score of 5-0.
Mikel Arteta’s men now sit 2nd in the table with 24 points, just two off League leaders Tottenham
