Arsenal are unstoppable! Mikel Arteta's prolific team make Premier League history with goal glut against Newcastle

The Gunners looked unstoppable against a depleted Newcastle side as they marched to a 4-1 win over the Magpies on Saturday evening at Emirates. A Sven Botman own goal handed them the lead which was quickly doubled by Kai Havertz in the 24th minute. Bukayo Saka and Jakub Kiwior found the net in quick succession after the break which helped them become the first team in Premier League history to score two or more goals in seven consecutive halves of football.

Arteta's men have been playing scintillating football since the turn of the year and the victory over Newcastle was their sixth league win on the bounce - a club record which further highlights their dominance in the English top flight. Although injuries have been a constant menace for the Gunners, they have shown time and again that they depend more on the collective than individual brilliance. In fact, they have 12 different goalscorers this campaign in the league which is a testimony to their incredible collaborative effort.

Saka also carved out a piece of history after beating Loris Karius between the sticks as he became the first English player to score in five consecutive Premier League games for Arsenal since Ian Wright did in seven between September and November 1994.

Arsenal are just two points behind leaders Liverpool in the standings and a single point separates them from second-placed Manchester City. They have hit top gear at the nick of time and would look to continue their winning streak when they face Sheffield United after a mini-break on March 4 at Bramall Lane.
