Schriftgröße

Viktor Gyokeres has scored 14 Premier League goals this season, which puts him joint fourth on this particular list.

Viktor Gyokeres’ reaction: "We controlled the game very well. It was a very good performance and an important three points. We never stopped believing, and we’re not going to. That’s how it is. We’ll focus on the next game now. We’re on a good path but we have to stay there."

Mikel Arteta makes a point of giving Myles Lewis-Skelly – who was excellent in midfield – a big hug. Then he punches the air repeatedly, Jurgen Klopp-style, in front of the home crowd.

Full time: Arsenal 3-0 Fulham. Arsenal move six points clear of Manchester City with a comfortable victory. The Emirates was a happy place throughout, particularly when a rejuvenated Bukayo Saka and a clinical Viktor Gyokeres were tearing Fulham apart in the first half. Saka made the first for Gyokeres, who returned the favour before heading an excellent third on the stroke of half-time.

Arsenal’s remaining games are against West Ham (A), Burnley (H), and Crystal Palace (A). Manchester City have five games remaining against Everton, Brentford, Crystal Palace, Bournemouth, and Aston Villa.

Arsenal made several substitutions in the second half to manage player fitness ahead of their upcoming match against Atletico Madrid, including resting Bukayo Saka and Viktor Gyokeres.
