Granit Xhaka has highlighted a 'new' and 'different' mentality behind Arsenal's sensational start to the season. The Gunners made it six wins from their first seven Premier League games with a dominant 3-0 victory over Brentford.
Xhaka starred in the Gunners' comfortable victory in west London, providing a sublime cross which was headed home by Gabriel Jesus. William Saliba and full Premier League debutant Fabio Vieira were also on the score sheet as Arsenal climbed back to the top of the table.
Much of the media coverage in the build-up to the game was about the repeat fixture last season. Arsenal travelled to Brentford for the opening match of the 2021/22 campaign and they were convincingly defeated 2-0, which resulted in them receiving heavy criticism in the press.
