The north Londoners' only defeat of the current season came at the hands of rivals Man United at Old Trafford earlier in September.

However, they have since been flawless across all competitions, with their impressive run seeing them touted as favourites to challenge Man City for the Premier League title.

According to Goal, Arteta's current crop of players is now the first in the club's history to record nine wins from the opening 10 matches of a season.

The Emirates Stadium-based outfit kicked off their campaign with a 2-0 win over Crystal Palace before they hammered Leicester City 4-2 and Bournemouth 3-0.

They followed up the three results with wins against Fulham and Aston Villa before they faltered against Man United.

However, they have gone on to record encouraging victories against equally top sides, including Tottenham Hotspur and Liverpool.

"I’m a believer now. We’ve seen them (Arsenal) trip up themselves so many times over 10 years, you always want to have another look and another look, but the process Mikel Arteta has been talking about for the last 12-18 months is starting to bear fruition," Cole said.
