Arsenal are unstoppable. Six games, six wins, zero goals conceded. Mikel Arteta’s red-hot Gunners have smashed records and stormed to the top of the Premier League with a flawless October run that’s got fans dreaming of silverware.
The latest triumph came on Wednesday night in the Carabao Cup, where a heavily rotated Arsenal side brushed Brighton aside 2-0. Despite resting most of his regular starters, Arteta’s men didn’t miss a beat.
Eberechi Eze was the only survivor from Sunday’s Crystal Palace win, but it was teenager Ethan Nwaneri who stole the show, firing home the opener before Bukayo Saka wrapped things up in the 76th minute.
According to OptaJoe, “Arsenal became the first English top-flight side in history to play six games in a single month and win them all without conceding a goal.” Let that sink in, six clean sheets, 12 goals scored, and total domination.
The last player to score against Arsenal? Newcastle’s Nick Woltemade, way back in September. Since then, no one has even come close. In fact, the Gunners have conceded just one goal from open play all season, that lone strike coming from Erling Haaland at the Emirates.
With 11 clean sheets in 14 games, Arsenal’s defence has become a fortress. Analysts are already whispering: could they break Chelsea’s legendary 2004-05 record of conceding only 15 goals in a season?
It’s a bold challenge, the modern Premier League is faster, wilder, and more attack-minded than ever. But if anyone can do it, it’s this ruthless, resilient Arsenal side.
The question now is: Can Arteta’s men make history?
