Arsenal routed Burnley 5-0 at Turf Moor to keep pace with Liverpool at the top of the Premier League. 

With Jurgen Klopp's Reds beating Brentford 4-1 in Saturday's lunchtime kick-off, the pressur was on the Gunners to respond with a victory at Turf Moor. 

Mikel Arteta's title challenging side certainly did that, with a resounding thrashing of the Clarets. 

A double from Bukayo Saka added to strikes from Martin Odegaard, Leandro Trossard and Kai Havertz to ensure Arsenal moved to within two points of Liverpool.
