Manager Mikel Arteta was pleased to see his players begin how they finished last season.
He said: "They look exactly the same (as last season) to me. What I did transmit to them was to show more desire and earn the right to be better than everyone else.
"There was a lot to like from the performance. It was a great result but also the manner we started the game.
"It was domination, clarity and understanding. It was really impressive."
