It was a bitterly disappointing Sunday to be Arsenal, that’s not something we’ve said all season, but it really felt like a hammer blow.

Another two-goal lead deflated down to one point in a critical point of this season in the fixture that on paper, we should be winning with ease.

There are many talking points to take from the game, although presumably, most of us don’t feel like talking today – here’s three takes from myself on this dreary Monday.

A duplicate of last weekend’s disappointment.

When we play how we did in the opening thirty minutes, an exact copy to how we did at Anfield, we could beat any side.

Arsenal looked dangerous, extremely efficient and on the hunt for a poaching of West Ham. There were points in the opening 20 minutes that I was laughing, the little injections of skill amongst tidy sequences of attacking play, equalled with a no-nonsense defensive display.

Everything was perfect, the ability to look as if we’ve killed a game within the opening 13 minutes is the look of champions, it’s all too painful how it ended.

Dashes of an Arsenal we haven’t seen all season.

Up until the Liverpool game it was almost unbelievable that Arsenal this season would be unable to hold out for three points after going two goals up.

It’s not fair to even class it as complacency as I don’t believe any aspect of this side possesses an ounce of a trait that causes one to be complacent. We’re a hungry side with a desire to win, so the last two performances have been eye-opening for the wrong reasons.

It seems as though we are choking slightly, which can be solved in our remaining seven games.

It's over when it’s over.

It's not over, whilst it’s undeniably easy to rule us out of the title race after dropping four points in our previous two games at the crunch point, it’s actually easier to look at the table and see we still sit four clear.

Football is unpredictable, it’s naive write us off and say that Manchester City will win every game – it’s certainly possible – but all is not lost.

We have seven games to play, one of which against City, if we want the title, we have to win our remaining games, just as City do, we aren’t without chance.
