A goalkeeping masterclass from Aaron Ramsdale helped Arsenal to a 2-0 Premier League win at Leicester as the in-form Gunners climbed to the cusp of the top four.
Gabriel and Emile Smith Rowe gave the visitors a comfortable first-half lead but only Ramsdale's heroics denied the Foxes a comeback at the King Power Stadium.
Mikel Arteta's team extended their unbeaten run in all competitions to nine games and moved fifth, level on 17 points with fourth-placed West Ham, and three ahead of Leicester, who drop to 10th.
The Spaniard praised his team's resilience but insisted there was plenty of room for improvement given their reliance on Ramsdale.
"We had to suffer and managed the game really well in the second half," he told BT Sport.
"There were moments we didn't manage well enough but in the last 20 minutes we got control back.
"We haven't done anything - we won a couple of matches and want to improve."
Brendan Rodgers regretted Leicester's first-half passivity and a refereeing decision as the Foxes left themselves with too much to do in the second half.
"First one (goal), I'm disappointed in the referee - it was a foul and the game gets played on," he said.
"We can be much better. Two really, really soft goals. The keeper made great saves but you rue the start -- that's what cost you."
The home side had won their last four games in all competitions to recover from a slow start to the season.
But it was Arsenal who maintained their momentum after recovering from their worst start to a league campaign in 67 years.
Arteta's men were bottom of the table after three games, but have since moved ahead of Manchester United and Tottenham in the battle for a place in the top four.
Arsenal never looked back after a stunning start.
The Gunners had only scored once away from home in the league but grabbed an early lead through centre-back Gabriel.
The Brazilian scored his first goal of the season in the fifth minute when he met Bukayo Saka's inswinging corner with a glancing header into the far corner.
Smith Rowe doubled the lead in the 18th minute with his fourth goal of the season when he tucked away a loose ball in the area after Luke Thomas' poor clearance.
Leicester had scored at least twice in each of their past five matches in all competitions but Ramsdale, who joined Arsenal from Sheffield United earlier this year, was in inspired form to prevent them adding to their goal tally.
He tipped wide Kelechi Iheanacho's long-range effort and made a remarkable save just before half-time, parrying James Maddison's free-kick on to the post before Jonny Evans hit the woodwork on the rebound and Thomas Partey cleared the ball off the line.
The 23-year-old continued to keep Leicester at bay in the second half as he denied substitutes Ademola Lookman and Harvey Barnes.
Thomas and Barnes went close but Arsenal almost made the game safe when Kasper Schmeichel kept out Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang's shot at the far post from a corner.
Kat Wightman's tips on how to create zones in large spaces
- Area carpets or rugs are the easiest way to segregate spaces while also unifying them.
- Lighting can help define areas. Try pendant lighting over dining tables, and side and floor lamps in living areas.
- Keep the colour palette the same in a room, but combine different tones and textures in different zone. A common accent colour dotted throughout the space brings it together.
- Don’t be afraid to use furniture to break up the space. For example, if you have a sofa placed in the middle of the room, a console unit behind it will give good punctuation.
- Use a considered collection of prints and artworks that work together to form a cohesive journey.

Torno Subito by Massimo Bottura
When the W Dubai – The Palm hotel opens at the end of this year, one of the highlights will be Massimo Bottura’s new restaurant, Torno Subito, which promises “to take guests on a journey back to 1960s Italy”. It is the three Michelinstarred chef’s first venture in Dubai and should be every bit as ambitious as you would expect from the man whose restaurant in Italy, Osteria Francescana, was crowned number one in this year’s list of the World’s 50 Best Restaurants.
Akira Back Dubai
Another exciting opening at the W Dubai – The Palm hotel is South Korean chef Akira Back’s new restaurant, which will continue to showcase some of the finest Asian food in the world. Back, whose Seoul restaurant, Dosa, won a Michelin star last year, describes his menu as, “an innovative Japanese cuisine prepared with a Korean accent”.
Dinner by Heston Blumenthal
The highly experimental chef, whose dishes are as much about spectacle as taste, opens his first restaurant in Dubai next year. Housed at The Royal Atlantis Resort & Residences, Dinner by Heston Blumenthal will feature contemporary twists on recipes that date back to the 1300s, including goats’ milk cheesecake. Always remember with a Blumenthal dish: nothing is quite as it seems.
