Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta is delighted with his side's Premier League victory over Fulham. The Spanish coach showed his happiness at the post-match press conference. "And we won the game in a convincing way so I’m very happy," he said.

Arsenal faced Fulham in the Premier League to stay top of the table. Magalhaes, Martinelli and Odegaard scored to give them a 3-0 victory at Craven Cottage.

Mikel Arteta gave a press conference after Sunday's game to talk about his feelings: "Really happy, it’s a really tough place to come against a well-organised team. I think we dominated the game, we created so many chances, we kept a clean sheet – which was really important. And we won the game in a convincing way so I’m very happy.

"In the Premier League, 1-0 or 2-0 is not enough, with 3-0 the game changes. There is still a lot to play for in the second half and we dropped the level a little bit in the first few minutes. I think the boys had an outstanding performance against a really tough opponent. Today it’s a day to praise them," he added.

"That 11 players need to be committed for the 96 minutes and I saw that again today. It’s going to be crucial to us winning games," Arteta concluded.
