Arsenal secured a vital 2-0 win against Chelsea at the Emirates Stadium on Saturday to make a resounding statement that they were indeed ready for the top 4 raise in the premier league.

The victory re-ignited the type of sensational moment which fans at the Emirate stadium used to experience in the active days of former boss Wenger, and left Chelsea players and fans speechless particularly as they found it difficult to detect where the problem came from in that match.

Chelsea had come to the Emirate stadium to at least get the maximum three points available or at most grab a point, but their plans did not work out after the home side scored two goals in the first half and eventually secured the victory.

The win for Umary's men was a strong motivation, and it was obvious that anything less than that means they would drop to the sixth position on the table, going by the fact that Manchester United had already secured an early victory putting them ahead of Gunners before their encounter.

But they lived up to expectations, giving their best and proving to Chelsea that they (Gunners) are no write-off and are in for serious business.

Though they are tied on points with United, but at least they understand that the victory will go a long way in helping the psychology of the players ahead of their next matches and more importantly, the fans really have something wonderful to be cheerful about.
