Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta expressed his delight with the contribution of the club's summer signings, stating that they have elevated the squad and helped their teammates reach new heights. This sentiment followed Arsenal's commanding 6-0 victory over Sheffield United in the Premier League.

Among the standout performers were Declan Rice and Kai Havertz, both acquired during the close season from West Ham United and Chelsea, respectively. Their goals contributed to Arsenal's resounding win, which matched their largest Premier League away victory.

The recent success sees Arsenal on a seven-match winning streak in the league, currently sitting in third place with 61 points, just two points behind leaders Liverpool.

Arteta credited the summer signings for injecting new energy into the squad, improving individual performances, and fostering a positive team culture. He highlighted the importance of selecting players who could add value to the team, acknowledging their ongoing development.

However, Arteta emphasized that despite the positive momentum, the most crucial part of the season lies ahead, urging his team to maintain focus and determination.

Regarding player injuries, Arteta provided updates on Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Martinelli, revealing that Saka felt unwell during the match, while Martinelli sustained a minor foot injury. He also mentioned that Takehiro Tomiyasu is nearing a return from a calf injury.

Looking ahead, Arsenal prepares to face Brentford in their next Premier League fixture on Saturday, aiming to continue their impressive run of form.
