Arsenal moved back to the top of the premier league after defeating Newcastle United at St. James’ Park yesterday in a tight contest.
Gunners dominated for most part of the game but were not really able to cut the defenses apart as they have been doing this season.
Newcastle were defending well and were quick on the counter attack. However, one set-piece where they lost concentration was enough for them to pay the price.
Olivier Giroud was left unmarked and easily moved into space to head home Walcott’s delivery.
The French star scored his first premier league goal after almost 500 minutes of football, must have taken a lot of pressure off him.

What game were you watching ? The only time you had any control was as you scored, and that was against the run of play during the whole game . Once again, EXTREMELY lucky Arsenal and as usual, your arrogance shines like a beacon.
Whiny sore loser……….1-0 to the Arsenal and barcodes still pardewing and moaning….Gunners top of the League, Barcodes top of the shit heap!
What are you?Blind?It is myopic to deny Arsenal’s control of the game before their goal.
When the final score is 1-0, then luck usually plays a part.
In the fist half, Debuchy was more threatening than any Newcastle midfielder.
I believe we did not play well against Newcastle. There were too many missed passes and blunders from Szczesny and Jenkinson. We allowed opponents to agitate us and ended up yellow carded. Areas for us to improve are passing accuracy, space creation and close down, speed in tracking back and eye for goals. We are an excellent team no doubt but we need these improvements to be champion.
I wonder Y u guys are arguing on a closed case.
Newcastle 0 vs Arsenal 1
Pls let Arsenal go on and win all other matches ugly and then we can celebrate the trophy beautifully. Period
