Arsenal's win, described as being achieved with 'resolve, control, and panache,' narrows the gap at the top of the table to just two points.

What a game.. what a performance.. what a win… brilliant stuff Arsenal. 👏👏🔥🔥@spencermorgan93 https://t.co/zxEuUwXWUs
Excellent performance. It's not just that we won, but how we did it. With resolve, control and panache. Arteta gets too little credit for how he's transformed how Arsenal approach games like this. https://t.co/724uzRoWNa
Arsenal better team from start to finish. #LFC miles off it. They have played so well for so long with key players out, but not today. Gifted their only goal, and they gave it right back. Still in good shape, but race has tightened.
Massive win @Arsenal Ya gunners Ya 🔴⚪️ #ARSLIV 🫶🏻 https://t.co/RCTT7pCxd5
