The Gunners marked their return to Europe's prestigious tournament with an emphatic display and result. Goals from Bukayo Saka, Leandro Trossard, Gabriel Jesus and Martin Odegaard sealed a perfect evening at the Emirates Stadium.
Mikel Arteta's side were the better team on the night and successfully kept PSV, who had won all four league games this season, quiet. With RC Lens and Sevilla playing out a 1-1 draw, Arsenal are already heavy favourites to seal their place in the knockout round.
Following the game, Bosz hailed the Gunners and conceded there wasn't much his side could have done. "The difference in quality was just too big tonight," he said.
"If we were to lie in front of the box we would have conceded to them too. We did not defend well in our own box, we were not short. But that also has to do with their quality.
"Arsenal are one of the best teams in the world, we are not. I don't blame the boys."
Arteta himself was full of praise for his players after they continued their impressive start to the season. The Gunners have now won five of their opening six games of the 2023/24 campaign and can make another statement of intent with victory in the North London Derby on Sunday.
"It was a beautiful night after such a long time," he told reporters. "We wanted to produce the right performance to win the game. It was great to see the atmosphere and the Champions League music.
"Everyone was getting a bit emotional before it. We showed in both boxes today I think we were exceptional. That was the difference today I think."
