00:00 So it's all over here at the Emirates and three points for Arsenal.
00:04 A lot more nervier than they thought it would be, certainly after opening first 15 minutes.
00:08 Arsenal's style absolutely brilliant. The way that the attack was really linking up, you know,
00:12 like to Vodougard, Saka, Zinchenko. The team looked so much more coherent than it has in games this season.
00:18 But Arsenal, I think they sort of were sort of victims of their own doubtful towards the end.
00:23 They took their foot off the gas, a bit sloppy in possession, and that gave Wolves the opportunity to make it a nervy finish.
00:29 But I think the three points is the main thing for us. Obviously, four points clear at the top of the Premier League.
00:33 And when Arteta goes through his sort of debrief of this game, I think he will look at that fast start.
00:38 Because Arsenal this season have really struggled to break teams down.
00:41 But the difference here today when they sort of came out of the block so fast,
00:44 and Wolves didn't really have a chance to settle, and Arsenal managed to hit the nose.
00:47 It was actually the first time this season that Arsenal had scored in the first 15 minutes.
00:50 I think going forward, that is something that Arteta really wants to stress and get his team to do.
00:54 Because if they're going to break teams down, if they're going to find a way to get wins, they need to keep starting games fast.
