Gunners celebrate Lacazette’s goal. #ARSWHU: We are at that juncture in the season where results matter more than performance and that would be the perfect way to describe Arsenal’s victory over the Hammers this Saturday.

#ARSWHU: Arsenal host West Ham this Saturday with both teams desperate for points. While Arsenal, incredibly, are aiming for the top 4, West Ham need to avoid relegation. They sacked Pellegrini and appointed David Moyes in hopes of achieving that. It’s been a mixed bag so far. They’re only out…
