ARSENAL comfortably beat Bournemouth 3-0 at the Vitality Stadium to move to the top of the Premier League table.
It took the Gunners just five minutes to break the deadlock as Gabriel Jesus danced through the Cherries defence before laying it off for Gabriel Martinelli.

The Brazilian’s shot was blocked but Martin Odegaard dispatched the rebound from close range to give the visitors a deserved lead.
Mikel Arteta’s men doubled their advantage with less than a quarter of an hour on the clock as Odegaard took the ball off of Jesus to rifle beyond Mark Travers.
And the three points were in the bag nine minutes into the second half when centre-back William Saliba beautifully curled one into the top corner from the edge of the box.
The victory maintains Arsenal’s perfect start to the campaign following wins over Crystal Palace and Leicester.
