There are times I hate football. Despise football. It makes me feel terrible for 90 minutes. But when the game ends with Arsenal holding the 3 points, it reminds me why I love this wonderful game.

Just caught the end of the City Forest match. What a heroic clearance off the line at the death! What a pivotal moment that could be. Up there with Gabrielโ€™s goal-line clearance at the start tonight.

Wolves stopped our title charge, but tonight, it is back on! This is a massive night in the title race, a break point moment that we have taken at last. On such nights seasons can swing. Have to make this moment count, donโ€™t step back, keep on pushing.
