The Arsenal fans filed out of the stadium at the final whistle with a look of disbelief on their faces.
The Gunners are eight points clear at the top - yes, really, eight points - of the Premier League and are rapidly building an unassailable lead. Yes, Manchester City have a game in hand. And, yes, Arsenal have to go to the Etihad on April 26. But you would rather have the points on the board and Arsenal might be even further ahead by then.
This season has been such an unlikely story that it almost feels like Arsenal fans refuse to believe it might actually happen and are therefore afraid to even dream about it. But Arsenal have been superb this season in overcoming every challenge and hurdle.
