You can’t smell solid sterling silver, but if you could Arsenal’s nostrils would be going ten to the dozen right now. They could be 45 minutes away from the Premier League title after Eli Junior Kroupi’s majestic goal gave Bournemouth a half-time lead against Manchester City.
City dominated possession without seriously testing Dorde Petrovic. Unless they win this game, Arsenal will be champions – Bournemouth will qualify for Europe for the first time.
