Arsenal have become the first Premier League team to score 5 or more goals in 3 consecutive away matches.

The Gunners were rampant against Sheffield United, as they tore apart the home side at Bramall Lane by 6-0.

Six different scorers found the back of the net for Mikel Arteta's side, with Chris Wilder's side unable to quench the fire of Arsenal.

Martin Odegaard put the Gunners ahead in the 5th minute, before Jayden Bogle unfortunately put the ball beyond his own keeper, scoring an own goal.

Gabriel Martinelli netted the 3rd goal of the encounter, while Kai Havertz, Declan Rice, and Ben White scored the 4th, 5th and 6th goal respectively.

The win saw Arsenal equal their highest away win record ever, having smashed West Ham United 6-0 on February 11, 2023, to set the record.

The North London side have become a team admired by many across the globe, with the team playing free-flowing football and scoring goals with reckless abandon.

Arsenal are aiming to win the Premier League this campaign and they are putting every effort into ensuring it.

Bukayo Saka, Martin Odegaard, Declan Rice, and his teammates have produced quaking performances this season, with fans of the Gunners thrilled to be supporters of the club.

Despair seems to be long gone, from dejection to elation for the Gunners, with Arteta being the mastermind behind their revolution.


It will be intriguing to see if they can actually go all the way to win the English Premier League title, given the competition they have to contend with.

Meanwhile, Bukayo Saka also become the 6th Premier League player to hit 50 goals and 50 assists across all competitions since November 2018.

Liverpool's Mohamed Salah, Spurs' Heung-Min Son, Manchester United's Bruno Fernandes, Manchester City's Kevin De Bruyne and ex-Manchester City star Riyad Mahrez are the first 5.

Arsenal sit 3rd on the log with 61 points from 27 matches, 1 point behind Manchester City, who sit second with 62 points from 27 matches.

Liverpool currently occupy the top spot, with Jurgen Klopp's side amassing 63 points from 27 matches so far this term.

Supporters of the Gunners will be hoping that the players don't buckle and the important stages of the season like they did in the 2022/23 season.

The players should have garnered enough experience from their hapless season last campaign, with much quality also inherent in the squad.

Anyway, Arsenal return to action on Saturday, March 9, 2024, facing Brentford at the Emirates Stadium.

Subsequently, they battle against FC Porto on Tuesday, March 12, 2024, looking to dwarf and write off their aggregate deficit from the first leg and progress to the next round.

Their next away league game sees them go up against Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium, in what is expected to be a stern test of their title credentials.

If they shockingly record a victory at the Etihad, they will be doing the double over Manchester City, having defeated the Cityzens at the Emirates Stadium in the reverse fixture 1-0.
