Arsenal ripped apart sorry Portsmouth to continue their impressive
start to the season with a 4-1 romp at Emirates Stadium.
Abou Diaby - one of four changes by manager Arsene Wenger - smashed
in a first-half brace to set the rampant Gunners on their way.
Although Younes Kaboul pulled a goal back, it was only delaying
the inevitable as William Gallas bundled in his third goal in as
many games, before youngster Aaron Ramsey wrapped things up.
Arsenal had smashed six at Everton before winning the first leg
of their Champions League qualifier 2-0 away to Celtic in midweek.
Next up in the Barclays Premier League is a trip to Old Trafford.
More of the same there and indications will be this could yet be
a vintage season for Wenger's young Gunners.
