Mikel Arteta is finally banking some payback for his patience after resisting Jamie Carragher's early calls over defender William Saliba.
Arsenal restored their five-point lead at the top of the Premier League by beating Bournemouth 3-2 on Saturday - with the once-snubbed Saliba at the heart of their defence.
The Gunners were on the verge of dropping points at the Emirates after goals from Philip Billing and Marcos Sensei gave the Cherries a two-goal advantage. Yet Thomas Partey, Ben White and Reiss Nelson all found the net to complete a superb comeback.
