And now, Viktor Gyokeres probably does two. Both bagged doubles in an emphatic win for the Gunners that made a mockery of their recent wobbles.

Arsenal anxiety increases as title hopes hit by poor performance on wet Wednesday night in Wolverhampton
Wolverhampton Wanderers (0) 2 v Arsenal (1) 2 Premier League Matchweek 27 Talking Points By Kaz Mochlinski at Molineux This time there was no positivity from Mikel Arteta. Unlike previous draws recently, Arsenal being held 2-2 at Wolverhampton Wanderers was not viewed as one point gained but unequivocally two points dropped. “Extremely disappointed, obviously, with the result, with the way the game ended” admitted the Arsenal manager after his side surrendered a two-goal lead

Arsenal had to beware the yellow peril : Picture by @YTJourno Premier League Wolverhampton Wanderers (0) 2 Hugo Bueno 61, Edozie 94 Arsenal (1) 2 Saka 5, Hincapie 58 It was a calamity you just knew was coming. Arsenal, 2-0 up, contrived to surrender two precious points after allowing rock-bottom Wolves to score an injury time equaliser. They flirted with danger after allowing Wolves back into it soon after doubling their lead and it felt almost inevitable that the hosts would

Mikel Arteta’s prayers not quite enough to overcome Keith Andrews’ brave Brentford
Brentford (0) 1 v Arsenal (0) 1 Premier League Matchweek 26 Talking Points By Kaz Mochlinski at the Brentford Community Stadium Mikel Arteta admitted that “you have to pray” when you play against Brentford, and he revealed that he informed his players of the need to defend with their lives before securing a 1-1 away draw which keeps Arsenal clear at the top of the Premier League.

Holloway the lads : Picture by @YTJourno FA Cup Fourth Round Arsenal (4) 4 Madueke 11, Martinelli 18, Hunt og 23, Jesus 27 Wigan Athletic (0) 0 It all felt so low-key - and after all the recent nervous anxiety of chasing Premier League points, that suited the Gunners just fine. Four goals in the opening half an hour put the tie well and truly to bed, meaning no needless excess energy was expended.

Arsenal brush aside Black Cats to extend their supremacy at the top of the Premier League
Gunners v Black Cats by @JTaylorSport Arsenal 3 Sunderland 0 If Arsenal, as widely anticipated, do go on to lift the Premier League title for the first time since 2004, it is likely to prove more prosaic than one would expect of champions. For all the verve of a 4-0 win at Leeds United lately, there are other outings to consider, such as this rudimentary 3-0 win over spirited Sunderland. Not that the Gunners fans will particularly care. Twenty two years is an eternity on foot

Havertz gets Arsenal over the line to first final in six years as Chelsea fail to overturn first leg defeat
Rising to the occasion Carabao Cup Semi-Final Second Leg Arsenal (0) 1 Havertz 90+7 Chelsea (0) 0 Aggregate: 4-2 It was at times tortuous watching for Gunners fans. A precious single goal advantage is not nearly enough to make for calm watching over 90 minutes. They had to watch their side parry and absorb the tension and work their socks off to keep their west London rivals at bay. At times, in spite of the brilliant defending which restricted the Blues to only a handful of

Arsenal look increasingly like champions with hugely impressive win at Elland Road
Leeds United (0) 0 v Arsenal (2) 4 Premier League Matchweek 24 Talking Points By Kaz Mochlinski at Elland Road Could an apparently innocuous hip injury have changed Arsenal from contenders into champions-elect? A very late replacement turned out to be crucial in the Gunners’ best away result of the season as they won 0-4 against Leeds United at Elland Road. There were considerable concerns when Bukayo Saka could not complete the pre-match warm-up and with negligible notice No
