Kai Havertz was particularly impressive for The Gunners as he continued his superb form since the turn of the year.
The German forward netted a superb header from a Bukayo Saka cross and perhaps the urgency to sign a striker has now dwindled somewhat.
Saka added the second with a superb left-footed strike to round off a comfortable afternoon at the Emirates.

Speaking on Ben Foster’s YouTube channel, Troy Deeney said Gabriel Martinelli was too eager during the clash against Wolves.
“Saw a few little issues that could potentially come up,” the 36-year-old said.
“Martinelli had a few chances. He could have squared it and someone scores, but he’s thinking like I have got to score now because Trossard’s going to play.”
There’s certainly added pressure for Martinelli to deliver in front of goal with Leandro Trossard breathing down his neck.

Only time will tell…
