Mikel Arteta explains relevance behind clock in Arsenal dressing room after Fulham win

Mikel Arteta has rubbished a popular theory over the significance of the clock in Arsenal's dressing room as they celebrated their victory over Fulham.

The Gunners maintained their five-point lead over Manchester City at the top of the Premier League table with a convincing 3-0 victory at Craven Cottage on Sunday. Gabriel opened the scoring and Gabriel Martinelli quickly doubled the visitors' lead before Martin Odegaard wrapped up the game on the stroke of half-time.

Success in west London made it five wins on the trot for Arsenal as hope grows that they can topple City to win their first league title since the 2003/04 season. After the match, the jubilant squad celebrated in the away dressing room and, conspicuously, they posed with a timepiece similar to the iconic one which hung at Highbury and now adorns the structure at Emirates Stadium.
