Two goals, an assist and a clean sheet ensure Arsenal defender Jurrien Timber is Flashscore's Premier League Player of the Week.

The Gunners did not mess about in their first home fixture against Leeds, battering the promoted side 5-0 at the Emirates Stadium to make it two wins from two games.

Timber proved to be a menace throughout the match, with his display earning him a perfect Flashscore rating of 10 – the first player to achieve the mark this season.

The Dutchman got the Arsenal scoring party going with a well-taken header from a corner and followed that by assisting Bukayo Saka's brilliant finish.

It got better for Timber as he netted his second following a scramble in the box, before being withdrawn with a clean sheet next to his name too.

Arsenal will be hoping Timber carries some of that form into their next match as they travel to play Liverpool at Anfield on Sunday.
