Mikel Arteta after Arsenal’s win over Chelsea (Picture: Getty) Troy Deeney named four Arsenal players in his team of the week including the ‘best goalkeeper in the Premier League’, David Raya. Mikel Arteta’s defending champions maintained their perfect start to the new season with a 2-1 win over Chelsea on Sunday. Arsenal trailed through Morgan Rogers’ early opener but came from behind thanks to goals from Kai Havertz and Martin Odegaard. The win means only Arsenal and Manchester City boast a perfect record after three games while Chelsea taste defeat for the first time this season.

Deeney picked Raya as the goalkeeper in his Premier League team of the week for BBC Sport after he pulled off a brilliant save to deny Estevao a Chelsea equaliser late on. Arsenal summer signing Ezri Konsa was also included after an impressive performance alongside Gabriel, with Chelsea’s dazzling front-three kept relatively quiet at the Emirates Stadium. Martin Odegaard continued his superb start to the season with another goal and earned a place in Deeney’s team alongside Arsenal’s ‘best footballer’ Havertz. Former Premier League striker Troy Deeney (Picture: Getty) Arsenal goalkeeper David Raya (Picture: Getty) Analysing Raya’s performance against Chelsea, Deeney said: ‘Huge saves, again. It’s why he’s the best goalkeeper in the league. He keeps just coming up with big moments.’ Turning his attentions to England defender Konsa, the ex-Premier League striker said: ‘Solid performance. He comes in again and just makes that massive tackle on Morgan Rogers. ‘I think he slots into what is an already incredible Arsenal team. I can see a position now that they just can’t live without him, he’ll have to play right-back when everybody comes fit and available.’ {"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org","@type":"VideoObject","name":"'It was beautiful': Arteta hails Arsenal's attack-to-defence display in win against Chelsea","contentUrl":"https:\/\/videos.metro.co.uk\/video\/met\/2026\/09\/07\/2593273995855020828\/480x270_MP4_2593273995855020828.mp4","description":"Arsenal came from behind to beat Chelsea 2-1 at the Emirates Stadium after Morgan Rogers stunned home fans into silence with a volleyed goal 77 seconds into the game.","duration":"T5M27S","height":270,"thumbnailUrl":"https:\/\/i.dailymail.com\/1s\/2026\/09\/07\/07\/111091359-0-image-a-53_1788761962819.jpg","uploadDate":"2026-09-07T07:17:08+0100","width":480} To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video Up Next Previous Page Next Page window.addEventListener('metroVideo:relatedVideosCarouselLoaded', function(data) { if (typeof(data.detail) === 'undefined' || typeof(data.detail.carousel) === 'undefined' || typeof(data.detail.carousel.el_) === 'undefined') { return; } var player = data.detail.carousel.el_; var container = player.closest('.metro-video-player'); var placeholder = container.querySelector('.metro-video-player__up-next-placeholder'); if (placeholder) { container.removeChild(placeholder); container.classList.add('metro-video-player--related-videos-loaded'); } }); On Odegaard, Deeney added: ‘Captain, leader and a massive winner.

It’s scary.’ Discussing Havertz, the Watford legend continued: ‘The best striker for Arsenal, hands down.

Krystian Bielik grabbed a young Portsmouth supporter by the throat Krystian Bielik grabbed a young Portsmouth supporter by the throat during Cardiff City’s 2-0 defeat in the Championship on Saturday. The incident occurred during the second half at Fratton Park when the Portsmouth fan had caught the ball and threw it away from Bielik, who was trying to take a quick throw-in. Bielik responded by grabbing the throat of the supporter, who then stood up and slapped the Cardiff City midfielder on the head. Following the confrontation, the young Portsmouth supporter was seen gesturing to a nearby steward that Bielik had grabbed him by the throat.

The supporter was then ejected from the stadium as Portsmouth went on to win the game 2-0. Bielik, who was substituted in injury time, is now likely to face disciplinary action from the Football Association over his conduct. So Bielek grabs a kids throat, kid defends himself, and kid gets thrown out. Portsmouth FC should give off about this and Bielek needs suspending! pic.twitter.com/9Np1k8Xl3i— Charlie Barnes (@ChaltJames) September 5, 2026 Speaking about the incident after the game, Cardiff City manager Brian Barry-Murphy said: ‘Krystian went to get the ball back from the stands and got slapped in the face. ‘I wanted to make sure he [Bielik] was protected and make sure he was okay, which he is. I thought the referee and his staff handled the incident impeccably. I was assured by him the correct processes will take place. He said he’d seen everything which occurred really clearly, so he diffused the situation and implemented the correct processes from there. ‘The players are always subjected to different things that’s not acceptable. My job is to protect the players, but really I’m trying to make sure that we play well and win. ‘I’m sure the FA will look at it and implement the correct processes.’ The defeat leaves Cardiff 22nd in the Championship and the Bluebirds are still searching for their first win in the league this season after five games played. Bielik was signed by Arsenal at the age of 17 as he was signed in a £2.4 million deal from Legia Warsaw in 2015. The midfielder only made two first-team appearances during his time at Arsenal before leaving permanently in 2019. Bielik has also made 11 appearances for Poland’s national side.
