ARSENAL COME FROM BEHIND TO BEAT LEEDS UNITED 2-1! BRUNO GUIMARÃES WINS IT!

The Gunners return to winning ways at the Emirates Stadium as goals from Riccardo Calafiori and Bruno Guimarães complete a dramatic second-half comeback against Leeds United!

In this RAW MATCH REACTION, Arsenal reporter Tom Canton gives his immediate thoughts on Mikel Arteta's side securing three vital Premier League points after a difficult afternoon against Daniel Farke's Leeds.

Arsenal struggled to find their rhythm for much of the opening hour, with James Justin giving Leeds the lead in the 55th minute. But the response was exactly what Arsenal needed!

Riccardo Calafiori equalised in the 62nd minute after excellent work involving Noni Madueke and Ben White, before substitute Bruno Guimarães struck the winner in the 70th minute, finishing a brilliant move involving Martin Ødegaard and Declan Rice.

NONI MADUEKE WAS ENCOURAGING! Starting on the left wing, the England international caused Leeds problems throughout the match and played a crucial role in Arsenal's equaliser.

Calafiori also deserves huge praise, not just for his important goal but for his contribution to the comeback.

And what about Bruno G?! Another massive moment from the Brazilian, who came off the bench and changed the game with a superb finish.

But despite the victory, there are questions to ask. Why were Arsenal second-best for so long? Did Arteta get his starting XI right? And how much credit does the manager deserve for his substitutions?

After the disappointing defeat against Brighton, Arsenal needed a response. It wasn't perfect, but three points are three points!

MIKEL ARTETA HAS SIGNED DA TING! Arsenal have officially confirmed that Mikel Arteta has signed a new contract keeping him at the Emirates Stadium until June 2030!

After guiding the Gunners to their first Premier League title in 22 years, Arteta has committed his future to Arsenal, and the ambition is clear: this is only the beginning.

In today's special edition of The Arsenal News Show, Arsenal reporter Tom Canton discusses the significance of Arteta's new deal, what it means for the club's long-term future and why this could be one of the most important decisions Arsenal make for years to come.

From taking over a struggling Arsenal side in December 2019 to restoring the Gunners to the summit of English football, Arteta has overseen a remarkable transformation. The Premier League title triumph in 2025/26 and a run to the Champions League final have established Arsenal among Europe's leading clubs.

But what comes next?

With Arteta now committed until 2030, we examine the ramifications for Arsenal's transfer strategy, the relationship with Andrea Berta, the futures of key players and the ambition to establish a sustained period of success.

Arsenal CEO Richard Garlick has spoken about the club's desire to dominate football in the coming years. Can Arteta deliver more Premier League titles? Is winning the Champions League the next great challenge? And how does Arsenal ensure that last season's success becomes the foundation of an era rather than its defining achievement?

There's also the question of expectations. With a new contract comes even greater responsibility, and the pressure to keep improving will be enormous.

Arteta has signed. Now the next chapter begins.

JULIAN ALVAREZ HAS MADE HIS DECISION! The Atlético Madrid striker's future is back in the spotlight following Arsenal's summer pursuit, while Mikel Merino continues his extraordinary form, and there's growing optimism surrounding Kai Havertz's injury.

In today's Arsenal News Show, Tom Canton discusses the latest surrounding Alvarez after a summer in which Arsenal explored a blockbuster move for the Argentina international. What does his decision mean for the possibility of the Gunners returning for him in the future?

Meanwhile, Mikel Merino is INCREDIBLE! The Arsenal midfielder produced another sensational performance for Spain, coming off the bench and scoring twice as his country fought back to beat Croatia 2-1. His winner arrived in the 89th minute as Spain secured their place in the Nations League quarter-finals.

Merino's remarkable goal threat continues to give Mikel Arteta another dimension. Is he now one of the most underrated players in this Arsenal squad, and how important could his ability in front of goal prove over the course of the season?

There's also some Kai Havertz optimism ahead of Arsenal's Premier League return. Havertz returned from international duty with a muscle injury, but reports have suggested there is hope the problem will not prove to be a long-term one.

ANOTHER ARSENAL INJURY CONCERN?! The international break continues to provide plenty for Mikel Arteta to think about as the Gunners prepare for the return of Premier League football against Leeds United.

In today's Arsenal News Show, Tom Canton discusses the latest fitness concern surrounding the squad and what it could mean for Arteta's options when domestic football finally resumes.

Meanwhile, there's an intriguing transfer development involving Noni Madueke. The Arsenal winger is reportedly attracting interest from Atlético Madrid and Juventus after struggling for regular Premier League minutes so far this season. Could January bring a decision over his future, or will Arsenal's current injury problems provide Madueke with the opportunity he's been waiting for?

There's also plenty to celebrate for Viktor Gyökeres, who has made UEFA Nations League history with Sweden. The Arsenal striker has now scored in six consecutive Nations League appearances, becoming the first player to achieve the feat.

With Gyökeres pushing for more opportunities at club level, could his incredible international form force Arteta into a rethink when Arsenal return to action?
