Arsenal have been the best team in the Premier League so far this season with a number of players stepping up their performances. Bukayo Saka has continued to be a key player for Arteta, whilst Gabriel Martinelli, Granit Xhaka and Thomas Partey have all raised their games to prove their talents.
Mikel Arteta has been praised for his ability to develop talented youngsters into world-class players with Martin Odegaard standing out as the prime example. The Norwegian playmaker has arguably been the best midfielder in the division this season after being handed the club captaincy at the start of the campaign.
Odegaard has notched eight goals and provided a further six assists in 27 appearances so far this season and is now considered irreplaceable in Arteta's team. Kevin De Bruyne has set the standard in recent years at Manchester City with his goal scoring ability from midfield, paired with his immense playmaking quality and assist tally.
