The question of whether Arsenal could continue their remarkable form in the Premier League without Gabriel Jesus was quickly put to bed last night. The Gunners came from behind to defeat West Ham 3-1 at the Emirates Stadium to extend their lead at the top to seven points.
Mikel Arteta's side had to overcome some challenges, however, after falling 1-0 behind in the first half courtesy of a Said Benrahma spot-kick. But Arsenal wasted no time in turning events around with three goals in 16 second half minutes.
The Gunners forward line all chipped in with goals as Bukayo Saka, Gabriel Martinelli and Eddie Nketiah handed Arsenal their 13th league win of the season. The dominant display ensured Arteta's side continued their impressive run this season and piled more pressure onto Manchester City ahead of their trip to Leeds United on Wednesday.
