  "account": "Arsenal's transfer budget of near £200m this summer did not secure the world's top striker, with Julian Alvarez staying at Atletico Madrid, Morgan Rogers joining Chelsea, Bradley Barcola moving to Liverpool and Vinicius Jr remaining with Real Madrid. Still, Arsenal started the 2025-26 season strongly, winning their first three games and drawing their derby match against Chelsea. Goals from Kai Havertz and Martin Odegaard were crucial in securing a 2-1 win in the London derby. Former Premier League winner Chris Sutton remarked that Arsenal appears to be unstoppable so far, having won their opening three games with only one goal conceded. Odegaard, who has scored three times in four appearances this season, praised his teammates' chemistry and expressed confidence in Arsenal's ability to maintain their strong start.",
