ISAAN KHAN: It was that 'little nuisance', as ascribed by Gary Neville, who again jumped and jumped on the touchline in glee. Nicolas Jover had helped architect another significant Arsenal victory in the title race via their trusted weapon - set-pieces. The pathway to three points in a tense north London derby against rivals Tottenham was unlocked on 15 minutes, Bukayo Saka's corner-kick swung into the near post area with Takehiro Tomiyasu ready to head it goalward. The expectation for the cross to land in the mix caused Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg to panic. He headed the ball into his own net.

But initial discussions have been described as positive and will continue in the coming weeks.
