The latest edition of our London Team of the Week, sees table-toppers Arsenal once again have a strong presence after their impressive 2-0 win over Liverpool.
Santi Cazorla grabbed his first goal of the campaign with a close range strike, while Aaron Ramsey continued his fine start to the season with a stunning long-range effort to seal the points.

Ramsey’s team-mates Mikel Arteta, Wojciech Szczesny and Olivier Giroud also make the cut after the trio provided solid displays against Liverpool.
Tottenham secured a hard-fought 0-0 draw away to Everton at Goodison Park, and captain Michael Dawson is chosen at the heart of defence alongside team-mate Jan Vertonghen at left-back after Spurs secured another clean sheet away from home.
Andros Townsend provided another dynamic display on the right-hand side of midfield, and makes his third consecutive appearance in the line-up.
Chelsea disappointed in their clash against Newcastle and succumbed to their second defeat of the season, going down 2-0 at St James’ Park. The goals came from Yoann Gouffran and Loic Remy, but Blues captain John Terry regains his place in the team of the week for his determined display from the back.
West Ham may be lacking goals but the clean sheet total is rising after the 0-0 stalemate against Aston Villa at Upton Park, with Guy Demel the solitary inclusion from the Hammers line-up after another impressive outing at right-back.
