"It was a bit nervy" - Martin Keown suggests Arsenal superstar did not look like his best self despite 1-0 win over Brighton
"It was tortuous to watch at times. ... It was bit nervy at times from Declan Rice, but boy, that is an unbelievable result for Arsenal. Gabriel's performance at the back was absolutely immense. It was tense, but you've got to keep going, (Kai) Havertz came off the bench and gave a touch of class to the team."
"Arteta's side are seven points clear of City (60), who have a game in hand, as they look to win their first league title since their historic 'Invincibles' triumph in 2004 under Arsene Wenger. The Gunners were far from their dominant selves but dug deep to register their 14th clean sheet in 30 league games, the most they have had at this stage of a league season in 20 years."
Arsenal secured a 1-0 victory at Brighton with Bukayo Saka scoring in the ninth minute, extending their lead to seven points at the top of the Premier League. Despite controlling only 42% possession, the Gunners maintained their advantage as Manchester City drew 2-2 with Nottingham Forest. Martin Keown criticized Declan Rice's performance as nervy and underwhelming, while praising Gabriel's defensive display and the impact of second-half substitutes Kai Havertz and Riccardo Calafiori. Arsenal recorded their 14th clean sheet in 30 league games, their best record at this stage in 20 years, as they pursue their first league title since 2004.
