Arsenal continually caused chaos in the first half and Mikel Arteta's side led 3-0 at the break as a brace from Gabriel Martinelli was followed by a Bukayo Saka strike.
Leeds improved after the break and Joe Gelhardt earned the Whites a 75th-minute penalty after being fouled by Ben White, Raphinha blasting home the spot kick into the top right corner.
But Arsenal bagged a fourth goal with six minutes left when Martin Odegaard played in substitute Emile Smith Rowe who volleyed home past Illan Meslier.
Graham Smyth, the YEP's chief football writer, hands out the scores.

3 - Made very little impression before going off with a knock he tried to run off. Always looked like he should be replaced but was kept out there for a surprising length of time. Photo by George Wood/Getty Images.

5 - Plenty of running, tried his best to hold the ball up but was often isolated. Won a penalty, showed some glimpses of clever footwork. Picture by Bruce Rollinson.
