Martin Odegaard has conceded that a nightmare four-game winless run in April is to blame for the collapse of Arsenal 's title bid.
The Gunners had dumbfounded their critics to lead the Premier League for the majority of the campaign and looked to be in a fantastic position to clinch their first domestic crown since 2004 as recently as a few weeks ago under the guidance of Mikel Arteta.
However, that feat now looks beyond Arsenal after Sunday's chastening 3-0 loss against Brighton. The Seagulls ran riot at the Emirates to down the Gunners, who had seen Manchester City extend their lead at the summit just hours before their own game.
