The Gunners are five points clear at the top of the Premier League having played a game more than Manchester City - but failed to open up a wider gap after squandering a 2-0 lead at Wolves on Wednesday night to draw 2-2."
"That was a chapter. In chapter 27, we draw against Wolves. In the next one it is about how we write our own destiny going forward. Life moves on, there's nothing we can do. It is about what happens next. The immediate reaction is tough. It was a shock to the system. We wanted to win and we couldn't and we have to move on."
Arsenal approach the North London Derby in confident mood under Mikel Arteta, sitting five points clear at the Premier League summit after a 2-2 draw at Wolves.
