Four goals and a clean sheet away from home, not a made nights work for Arteta and his Arsenal away to the baggies. Arsenal are now six points off the top four.
That’s three games in a row for Arsenal over the Christmas period surely this is something they can build on and look up the table now rather than behind them with some good young players coming up through the squad.
Where does this leave West Brom though they will have to make some big signings over the January window and hope big Sam can do what he does best and make them a lot more organised and harder to break down. If the baggies can do that they have a chance.
But for Arsenal now there is an FA cup break and they can look back over the Christmas period with great satisfaction and hope to push on with some good fixtures coming up.
