Arsenal thrash Nottingham Forest to return to winning ways

Arsenal returned to winning ways in the Premier League with Bukayo Saka and captain Martin Ødegaard inspiring a comfortable 3-0 home victory against Nottingham Forest on Saturday.

Mikel Arteta's side desperately needed three points to revive their title hopes after four league games without a win and the result never looked in doubt after Saka's early opener.

England forward Saka combined with the influential Ødegaard to finish in style after 15 minutes and the hosts should have been further ahead before halftime with Forest keeper Matz Sels making several fine saves to keep his side in it.
