arsenal remain at the head of the Premier League title race heading into the final stretch of the season.
Saturday’s big win over Leeds proved the perfect answer to Manchester City’s demolition of Liverpool and gave Mikel Arteta hope to end his team’s Anfield hoodo.

With games arriving thick and fast in April, here’s the latest news Arsenal injured.
An ever-present in Arsenal’s squad this season, Saka started the victory over Leeds on the bench due to illness. The fact that the 21-year-old is coming on is obviously promising, so it looks like he can take on Liverpool.

Ben White
The defender is Arteta’s only senior option at right-back and has proven to be a powerful attacking force in recent times.
White scored against both Bournemouth and Leeds and also provided an assist against Crystal Palace.
