Arsenal have posted an incredible record in English football that only Manchester United can claim to have emulated. The Gunners have become famed for their defensive resilience down the years, dating back to First Division title-winning days of George Graham. Those qualities are being embraced in the present, with the north London outfit proving difficult to break down.

Arsenal goalkeeper David Raya has been rewarded for his impressive form with an improved contract. It has been reported that the Spanish international's new deal represents an increase in remuneration from his reported £100,000-per-week wages. He has not agreed to extend his time at the north London club, with the new agreement expiring in 2028.

Jamie Carragher has hailed Arsenal goalkeeper David Raya as “one of the best pieces of business” the club has done under Mikel Arteta, calling him a “real upgrade” on Aaron Ramsdale. The Spaniard’s stunning save in the first half proved crucial as Arsenal beat Olympiacos 2-0 on Wednesday to continue their perfect Champions League start with two wins in two.

Following the release of EA Sports FC 26, GOAL's Front Three have stepped in to amend some player ratings, with Casemiro, Cole Palmer and Harry Kane's numbers all adjusted.

Liverpool icon Steven Gerrard passed the Topps FC quickfire quiz with flying colours, showing off his knowledge of modern football history when answering questions under pressure. The ex-Rangers and Aston Villa boss was put on the spot in a test of his wits, but showed why he was once considered one of the game’s greatest minds on the pitch by remaining cool when in an intense spotlight.
