'End of the beginning' - National media react as Arsenal thrash Wolves in Granit Xhaka goodbye

Arsenal's 2022/23 Premier League season has come to a close and while there was no title parade as many would have hoped, there's still plenty to be proud of. The Gunners showed a leap forward in progression, putting behind any worries of a previous fifth-placed finish to lead the way in the division for most of the campaign.

That pace wasn't sustainable for them though as they eventually fell off, with Manchester City eventually taking their place and leaving the final game with little to play for. In the clash with Wolves at the Emirates Stadium, there was still a show put on from the squad.

An early Granit Xhaka brace in what could be his final Arsenal game gave the north London outfit the lead before Bukayo Saka added a third before half-time. Gabriel Jesus scored the fourth after the break before defender Jakub Kiwior got in on the act to complete the rout.
