Mikel Arteta is on the cusp of making history after Arsenal maintained their perfect record since Liz Truss became UK Prime Minister.
The last time that the Gunners didn't win a match was a 3-1 loss Manchester United on September 4, two days before Truss moved into No.10 Downing Street. But not even two months later, the Conservative leader has resigned following a crisis-ridden 44 days as PM.
She will, however, remain in her post until a successor is elected from within the Tory party by the end of next week. Truss' shock announcement during a brief press conference on Thursday afternoon gave Arteta three games to record a unique feat. The first match was a relatively straightforward 1-0 victory over PSV Eindhoven in the Europa League, as Granit Xhaka 's second-half goal maintained Arsenal's 100 per cent record in the competition this season.
