Mikel Arteta is all smiles at Arsenal at present
After smashing Spurs 4-1 in the North London Derby, Arsenal followed up with a 3-1 victory over Bayern Munich, solidifying their top-of the tree status in both the Premier League and Champions League.
It was the perfect comeback for Bukayo Saka and co after a disappointing 2-2 draw against Sunderland before the international break - a result that not only snapped Arsenal's eight-match winning streak, but also threw a spanner in their chase of Chelsea's record of conceding just 15 goals in a Premier League season.
Speaking of Chelsea, Mikel Arteta's men are set to face them next, heading to Stamford Bridge on Sunday for a showdown that could be a game-changer in the title race. The Blues are riding high after thrashing Barcelona 3-0 midweek, but Arsenal might just be their toughest challenge yet this season. Here's all the latest Arsenal news.

Bukayo Saka has just over 18 months left on his Arsenal contract - but it seems like it's only a matter of time before an extension is signed.
The 24-year-old has been the club's attacking powerhouse for years, having climbed through the academy ranks since 2019. It's this deep-seated bond with Arsenal that has the club supposedly relaxed about his contract situation.
According to The Athletic, there's no hint that Saka is thinking about moving on, despite his contract nearing its end.
Talks for a contract extension are in full swing, and so far, everything's hinting at a long-term deal at the Emirates Stadium for the England star.
At the moment, Saka's on a £195,000 weekly wage, but six of his mates in the Arsenal camp are on more, including those who haven't made as much of an impact as Saka, such as Kai Havertz and Gabriel Jesus.
The Mirror reports that Saka might be bumped up to £300,000 a week, catapulting him to the top earner spot.
