Arsenal dropped more points in the race for the Premier League title against Manchester City on Sunday afternoon as they drew 2-2 against West Ham. The Gunners led the Hammers 2-0 in the opening 15 minutes after goals from Gabriel Jesus and Martin Odegaard gave Mikel Arteta's side an early lead.
Thomas Partey was at fault in the build-up to West Ham being awarded a penalty as he was dispossessed easily by Gunners transfer target Declan Rice, before Gabriel Magalhaes fouled Said Benrahma in the penalty box. The Algerian forward scored his spot kick - halving Arsenal's lead - with Bukayo Saka then missing a penalty in the second half.
Ian Wright and Granit Xhaka have both publicly offered support for the Hale End star and believe he will bounce back against Southampton on Friday night. Jarrod Bowen equalised for the Hammers just two minutes after Saka's penalty miss which saw the Gunners throw away a 2-0 lead and draw for a second successive match.
