Newcastle star sends two-word message after Arsenal injury blow before major title race clash

Arsenal's run-in for the Premier League title this season looks tough as the side have many key clashes to overcome in the next month or two. Hopes of lifting the trophy remains in their hands, but it is now also in the hands of Manchester City after the Gunners drew to Liverpool last weekend.

"Looking at the two halves it’s probably a fair result," Mikel Arteta said after the thrilling 2-2 draw at Anfield on Sunday. "You have to take it. The big lesson is probably to play the way we did in the first half."

Six points now separate the two teams, with Pep Guardiola's side holding a game in hand over the north London outfit as well as a head-to-head tie that could define the whole campaign. While those ties seem to be the key ones in deciding the winner of the title, there are likely to be even larger twists and turns on the horizon.
