Gary Neville said it looks like Arsenal’s ‘name is on the Premier League trophy’ after a dramatic win over West Ham.
Arsenal looked set to drop vital points in the Premier League title race as they were held by West Ham by over 80 minutes at the London Stadium.
But Leandro Trossard finally broke West Ham’s resistance with a superb strike, though more drama was to follow.
West Ham, desperately fighting to stay in the Premier League, thought they had scored an injury-time equaliser through Callum Wilson.
But the goal was ruled out following a VAR check for a foul on Arsenal goalkeeper David Raya and the Gunners held on for a ‘monumental’ win.
‘This is one of those moments where Arsenal might think their name is on the trophy,’ Neville said on Sky Sports.
‘The drama… if Arsenal are going to go on and win a title, this is the half. This is the game that will go down in folklore.

‘The late goal, the late VAR decision from Stockley Park from Darren England, and Arsenal get over the line.
‘It’s a monumental movement towards a first Premier League title for this great club in 22 years.’
