Arsenal return to winning ways by easing past Nottingham ForestBy Andy Sims, PAArsenal reignited their title bid in style as stunning strikes from Bukayo Saka, Thomas Partey and a first Premier League goal for Ethan Nwaneri sank Nottingham Forest 3-0. The Gunners, with Declan Rice and Kai Havertz on the bench as Arteta shuffled his pack, thought they had taken an early lead through Jurrien Timber. However, Arsenal did go ahead in the 15th minute when Saka exchanged passes with Odegaard on the edge of the area. The England winger continued his run across the box, skipping past James Ward-Prowse and Alex Moreno before lashing a left-footed shot back across Forest keeper Matz Sels into the roof of the net. Nwaneri almost made an instant impact after climbing off the bench but his teasing run ended with a shot which drifted just wide.
