Per Mertesacker satisfied by Arsenal start

Per Mertesacker claims that Arsenal can be satisfied by their start to the new Premier League season.

Arsenal defender Per Mertesacker has admitted that he is satisfied by the team's start to the season.

The Gunners have taken five points from their opening three matches, putting them in seventh place in the Premier League table.

Mertesacker now hopes that he and his teammates can improve further when they return to action after the international break.

"It's just okay for us to start like that. We went through to the Champions League group stage and had two away games so five points [is good]. I think we have to regroup and come back after the international break," told the club's official website.

Arsenal continue their Premier League campaign on September 13 when they travel to champions Manchester City.
