How it happened
The Gunners started the game on the front foot and broke the deadlock in the 29th minute with the game’s first shot on target.
A fine ball into the box from Declan Rice found Eddie Nketiah, who produced a delicate touch and finish.
The Gunners weren’t able to double their lead before the break but remained firmly in control, especially when considering Sheffield United’s poor form.
Nketiah added a second after the break, pouncing on a loose ball after Wes Foderingham had failed to properly deal with a corner delivery.
Deputising for the injured Gabriel Jesus, Nketiah saved his best for ast, smashing a long-range effort into the top corner for his first PL hat-trick and effectively ending the game as a contest with over half an hour remaining.
Fábio Vieira adding another from the spot before substitute Takehiro Tomiyasu netted his first Arsenal goal on his 50th PL appearance.
