Arsenal have done it again,flogging Newcastle 4:1 in a game that I thought was going to be very tough.Arsenal dominated the game through out the match,but in the late hours of the match,Joe Willock was able to break the deadlock of not scoring at Emirates stadium for about a decade.The game ended 4:1 in favour of Arsenal,and I believe this one must be a boost of confidence to the Gunners whom suffered defeat in Champions league against FC Porto.The gunners now seat one point behind City and two points behind Liverpool,so the three horse title race is still very active.
Arsenal dominated the game from start to finish, had a plenty of opportunities to score more than four goals, but the Newcastle defense was able to deny several of them. In fact, Arsenal defeated Newcastle like a team that had just been promoted to the Premier League. I didn't think Arsenal would score as many as two goals in that game; I didn't think they would have an easy time beating Newcastle. Newcastle's current performance has shocked me even more because it isn't what they have been doing from the start of the season. Arsenal is playing really well right now, if they continue playing this way, I think they can achieve more this season.
After having a narrow win against Bournemouth, Manchester City take over the second place from Arsenal. This surprised me because I didn't think Manchester City would scored only one goal against a team that is currently in 14th place in the standings.
