Arsenal ran out convincing 4-0 winners over Chelsea on Saturday in what was arguably Arsenal's best performance of the season so far.

After a cagey start to the first half, with no clear-cut chances for either side, Arsenal took the lead through Khayon Edwards, who headed home Elian Quesada-Thorn's dinked cross to score his 13th goal of the season.

Arsenal doubled their advantage minutes later, Charles Sagoe Jr latching on to James Sweet's pinpoint through ball and finishing coolly past the onrushing Prince Adegoke.

Arsenal hold on the game continued right through to the break as Arsenal's 11-minute flurry of goals left the Blues shellshocked.

Dan Micciche handed a debut to Lino Sousa midway through the second half as Arsenal sustained the spell of dominance over their London rivals and threatened to increase Arsenal advantage.

Arsenal finally added their third through Bradley Ibrahim, who bundled the ball over the line after a goalmouth scramble from a dangerous corner that Chelsea failed to clear.

Amario Cozier-Duberry capped their outstanding performance with a moment of magic 10 minutes before full time, finding the bottom corner with a whipping free-kick from 25 yards out.
