Arsenal actually put Sheffield United to the sword as they drew closer to Liverpool in the Premier League title contest.
At Bramall Lane, the Gunners dominated, winning 6-0, with five of their goals scored before halftime. Mikel Arteta’s team produced yet another outstanding performance; they won the league for the sixth time in a row and have scored four goals or more in each of their previous four victories.

Mikel Arteta’s team closed the gap on leaders Liverpool to just two points. They could advance when they head to Brentford on Saturday. Later that day, Jurgen Klopp’s team will play Manchester City, who are now in second position.
However, Arsenal victory was sullied somewhat when Gabriel Martinelli limped off in the 64th minute with the assistance of the club’s medical staff. Fellow forward Bukayo Saka had been withdrawn at half-time.
Arteta allayed fears over the pair, however. The Gunners boss told Sky Sports: “Bukayo was feeling sick and wasn’t feeling right so we decided to take him off and bring Fabio in. “With Gabi it is just a cut. So, he had a tackle and got a slight cut. We will have to see how he is.”
