Arsenal’s stellar start to the season has been built on an astonishingly defiant defence.
The Gunners currently top the Premier League table, have also eased into the Carabao Cup quarter-finals, and have a perfect Champions League record. Mikel Arteta’s side is arguably the best in Europe right now.
Their set-piece prowess has stolen headlines, as has their impenetrability at the back, with Arsenalconceding just three goals in all competitions this season. One was a Dominik Szoboszlai stunner, one was a trademark Erling Haaland goal and the other was a header from Newcastle United’s towering striker Nick Woltemade—hardly embarrassing goals to allow.
Arsenal kept yet another clean sheet in the Champions League in midweek as they overcame Slavia Prague, the 3–0 victory in Czechia extending their winning run to 10 matches in all competitions.
Their latest shutout saw them match an English football record, as well.
