LONDON –
Arsenal is building momentum again after a bad patch but must maintain its resurgent form, manager Mikel Arteta said after his side’s 5-2 demolition of West Ham United on Saturday.
The victory lifted Arsenal back into second place in the Premier League and confirmed the club has engaged top gear again after a run of four winless league games before November’s international break.
Gabriel, Leandro Trossard, skipper Martin Odegaard, Kai Havertz and Bukayo Saka were all on target in a frenetic seven-goal first half at London Stadium as Arsenal moved to 25 points, six behind Liverpool, which was scheduled to host troubled champions Manchester City at Anfield on Sunday.
