Goals from Kenwyne Jones and Jermaine Pennant put the hosts in control in the first half and, even when Robin van Persie pulled one back late on, Jon Walters replied immediately to snuff out any thoughts of a comeback.
It ended any outside chance the Gunners had of forging a late run to the top of the table.
Words are not enough. Do something about it!
Only on the precipice of disaster do we find the will to change. Fergie had his over a decade ago, Wenger, if not there now, is very close to his.
