Gabriel Martinelli and Thomas Partey shone for Arsenal in their victory over Liverpool on Sunday as their claims for a Premier League title push took a serious turn.

And although a whole host of stars have shone in north London so far this season, it is Martinelli and Partey who have been singled out as a result of their crucial roles in helping the Gunners claim top spot at this early stage of the campaign.
