If Arsenal are going to win the Premier League title this season, they're going to need more performances like the one they offered up in Saturday's 3-0 win over Brighton & Hove Albion.
Up against every hipster's favourite manager, Mikel Arteta's side waltzed their way to a huge three points that saw them return to the top of the Premier League table ahead of Liverpool's clash with Manchester United on Sunday.
Here are Arsenal's best and worst players from the win according to 90min's player ratings.
Arsenal's best player vs Brighton
Kai Havertz- 8/10
One goal, one assist and a dominant all-round showing - a good day's work for Kai Havertz.
Leading the line up top, Havertz's movement was intelligent and selfless as he helped bring left-winger Gabriel Jesus into the action, but he took the direct responsibility for creating goals in the second half.
Havertz tapped home Arsenal's second on the hour mark before a smart pass sent Leandro Trossard flying through on goal for the late third.
Honourable mention
Jorginho - 8/10
Pulling the strings from deep, Jorginho's experience playing with Havertz was clear to see here.
The Italian, often criticised for his lack of mobility, went charging down the wing to cross for his long-time teammate's second goal - a fair reward for a thoroughly impressive performance.
Arsenal's worst player vs Brighton
Oleksandr Zinchenko - 5/10
Brighton's biggest threat of the afternoon came out wide, where Simon Adingra enjoyed his time up against Oleksandr Zinchenko.
The Ukrainian was well-beaten in the first half but managed to stabilise himself after the break before being replaced with 20 minutes to go.
