Arsenal have reached their first major landmark in the season as domestic football takes a break mid-season for the upcoming World Cup. The Gunners have done so sitting top of the table and with a huge five point gap to Manchester City in second to show for their performances too.
They managed to extend that lead in their final game before the tournament away at Wolves, securing a huge 2-0 victory at Molineux on Saturday. A captain's performance from Martin Odegaard saw the Norwegian score a brace for the North Londoners to earn all three points.
It means Arsenal will be top at Christmas, the first time they've achieved that since 2007 and earning plenty of praise from manager Mikel Arteta. "It’s great to be where we are and we are enjoying that moment. Now we have a big break and we have to reflect on what we’re doing and be prepared for after the World Cup."
