Arsenal have secured a fifth successive Premier League win wollowing their 2-0 win over Fulham. The win was settled by two second half Cazorla goals, one he slotted in from a nice bit of passing play and the other, a low driven 20 yard strike.
Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger’s reaction:
“We were maybe not quick enough in the first half. In the second half our tempo was much better and we created chances.
“The players were conscious we had to step up a gear. It was just a question of time and Santi Cazorla delivered two special goals.
Wenger is very much aware of the pressure at the top of the table: “The pressure is there but it is a positive one. I believe it is important to keep focused on the way we want to play and our solidarity in the side, which is exceptional and that will get us the points.
“There are five or six teams who will fight for the Championship. From our side we just need to be consistent.”
Fulham manager Rene Meulensteen’s reaction:
“I thought we did ever so well. We were up against a top side. We limited them after their strong start.
“If we produced a bit more quality we could have nicked a goal in first half, but we will take a lot of heart from this performance.”
