Arsenal gun down West Brom to go top

Arsenal 5

The Gunners were 3-0 ahead with just 24 minutes gone through Ashley Cole, Lauren and Wiltord but had to endure a nervous half-hour spell in the second-half as Scott Dobie pulled a goal back.

Arsenal went further ahead through Wiltord’s second strike but continued to display some defensive flaws as Jason Roberts pulled another goal back before substitute Jeremie Aliadiere rounded off the scoring late on.
