**Arsenal Thump Nottingham Forest 3-0 to Narrow Gap with Liverpool**

Arsenal has regained their winning form in the Premier League with a commanding 3-0 victory over Nottingham Forest at the Emirates Stadium, halting a four-game streak without a win. This decisive match helped the Gunners inch closer to the current leaders, Liverpool.

Manager Mikel Arteta made several bold choices with his lineup, opting to start Jorginho and Gabriel Jesus while leaving Thomas Partey and Kai Havertz on the bench. Additionally, Leandro Trossard was selected over Gabriel Martinelli, and Mikel Merino took the place of Declan Rice.

These changes paid off almost immediately as Arsenal began strongly. Although Jurrien Timber’s early goal was disallowed for offside, Bukayo Saka broke the deadlock with a stunning strike in the 15th minute. Arsenal continued to dominate throughout the first half, although it took until six minutes after halftime for Thomas Partey, who replaced Jorginho, to double the lead with a remarkable goal.

Arsenal’s young talent shone late in the game when 17-year-old Ethan Nwaneri, another substitute, netted his first Premier League goal just four minutes from the final whistle, sealing a comprehensive team performance.

This victory has not only ended Arsenal’s recent poor run but also highlighted the depth and talent of their squad as they aim to challenge Liverpool for the top spot in the league.
