Everton 1 - Arsenal 6
Arsenal have ended the first day of the season as they started it - top of the premiership table. However although their starting position was purely alphabetical, their current lead is well deserved after putting 6 goals past a dire Everton. Arsenal fans will be happy that new boy Thomas Vermaelen scored on his debut, doubling a lead set up by Denilson. Gallas scored the third goal,Fabregas scrored a brace and Eduardo also hit the back of the net. Everton's only reply came from Saha in injury time, when the Gooners had effectively already started packing up for their triumphant return back to London. It is difficult to see how Moyes can take any positives from the Toffee's woeful display and impossible to see how this result could persuade Joleon Lescott to withdraw his transfer request.
