Arsenal: Mikel Arteta turning Arsenal into contenders

Things could not be any better for Arsenal at the moment after their comeback win over Fulham ensured they won their first four Premier League games of the season for just the third time in the club's history.

It's a stat with good vibes for the Gunners: in 2003-04 they went on to win the title and in 2004-05 they finished runners-up.

Talk of winning the title at this early stage is a stretch - Mikel Arteta said himself they were in for a "long, long marathon" - but Arsenal have shown plenty in the opening weeks to give fans optimism.
