After five league wins in a row Arsenal missed the chance to go 8 points clear of Manchester City and Aston Villa after drawing 0-0 with Liverpool at the Emirates on Thursday night.

Plus silly red cards, too little too late for Wolves and whether Nuno Espirito Santo can save West Ham from relegation.
