<a href="https://www.thenationalnews.com/tags/arsenal-fc/" target="_blank">Arsenal</a> returned to the top of the Premier League in style as forgotten man Reiss Nelson came off the bench for the injured Bukayo Saka to score a brace in a <a href="https://www.thenationalnews.com/sport/football/2022/10/30/reiss-nelson-grabs-his-chance-for-five-star-arsenal/" target="_blank">5-0 win against Nottingham Forest</a>. England forward Saka seemed to take a knock in the opening minute but still teed up Gabriel Martinelli to break the deadlock, later limping off to be replaced by Nelson, who scored twice in three minutes before assisting Thomas Partey as captain Martin Odegaard wrapped up the win. Nelson had not scored a Premier League goal in 837 days since getting on the scoresheet in a win over Liverpool, but it was an impact that settled the home crowd after Arsenal had earlier failed to build on a strong start.
