Arsenal continued from where they left off last week against West Ham with another drubbing this time Burnley were at the receiving end
Following their 6-0 hammering of West Ham, the Gunners wasted no time before making their intentions known with Martin Odegaard opening the floodgates as early as four minutes.
Bukayo Saka converted from the spot to double the lead after Lorenz Assignon fouled Leandro Trossard in the box.
England forward Saka got his second just after the restart as Arsenal kept up the pace, latching on to a clever Odegaard pass then cutting inside and rifling a shot into the roof of the net.
Havertz’s scuffed effort was blocked in the box but Trossard was alert to curl in for his third goal in as many league games.
Jakub Kiwior’s long throw down the line then found an unmarked Havertz, who ghosted in behind the defence and drilled past home goalkeeper James Trafford to complete a 5-0 comprehensive win for the Gunners.
Arsenal, who have 21 goals in five straight wins, move two points behind leaders Liverpool, while Burnley remain in the relegation zone.
Kompany’s side have conceded 26 first-half goals in 25 games, more than any other team in the Premier League this season.
