3. Defining moment in the season… and not in a good way

This is eerily similar to last season when the Gunners had a top-four spot all but secured, only to collapse down the stretch. This feels the same.

After having an eight-point lead, in two weeks, Arsenal has thrown away six points in what could prove to be City’s path to yet another title.

All the good work previously is being thrown away at the most inopportune time. It’s not over, but securing the title looks like a tall order for the Gunners now.
