Arsenal

William Saliba's absence from the back line represents a serious worry for Arsenal as the Premier League title race enters the final furlongs.

William Saliba has been immense in Arsenal's title charge and sparks more attacks than any other defender in the Premier League with his ball-winning skills... But to pigeonhole Saliba as some kind of brutish tackler is completely wrong. Both of those are league-bests. The main worry for Arteta is one of continuity. 'I don't want robots. 'They are a happy marriage.

Arsenal can move one game closer to clinching their first Premier League title since 2004 when they host relegation strugglers Leeds at the Emirates.

USA Network, Universo Leeds are having to do without three of their most important players as injuries take a toll on their squad. 120 mins from kickoff: Arsenal have won 22 of 28 Premier League matches this season. Meanwhile, no Patrick Bamford or Weston McKennie in the starting lineup for Leeds. 10 mins from kickoff: Looks like there might be an issue for Ben White. On the kickoff, it was deja-vu from the Bournemouth match. And Leeds are also pushing into the attack when they win it back. The visitors don't waste time going upfield. Again it's the visitors with the more incisive attacks. Leeds right-back Luke Ayling with a boot into the knee of Gabriel Jesus, who was making a dribbling move past him in the box. Leeds 'keeper Illan Meslier comes off his line to clear on an Arsenal counter, but the ball winds up at the feet of Gabriel Martinelli who sent the ball on an empty net. —

Gabriel Jesus scored his first two goals since coming back from injury to help us to a comfortable win.

Despite only joining the club in January, Leandro Trossard has the joint-second highest number of Premier League assists for us this season (7). And then on 55 minutes, Jesus doubled his tally for the afternoon. After our sluggish start to the first 45, we made amends after the restart and quickly wrapped up the points with two further goals. He first fooled his way past Kristensen and then bamboozled Ayling before he was tripped by our former academy product. Darren England pointed to the spot, allowing the Brazillian to coolly tuck the ball down the middle from 12 yards to end his long wait for a goal. Just like Bournemouth did last month, they nearly caught us cold straight from the kick-off, and Aaron Ramsdale was forced into his first save after just eight seconds when he pushed away a Kristensen strike.

Leeds fans could have been forgiven for fearing the worst after watching Gabriel Jesus open the scoring for Arsenal at Emirates Stadium on Saturday.

"I don't look at the table and the other teams. "But the second was magnificent. "Today he deserved the chance to start. It is going to be an exciting run-in." Man City have the bigger squad but Arsenal keep getting through the games and winning games. He has won a staggering 49 of those and drawn the other three. It's games like these when you need your big players." "We were all clapping for him. "The most important thing is that everyone who has come in has played well. He grabbed the opportunity with a lot of conviction - and with two goals." Everyone is playing so well. "I'm delighted for him," Gunners boss Mikel Arteta said after the game.

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta declared himself "delighted" as Gabriel Jesus scored his first goals in six months in a 4-1 win over Leeds United.

We've had long-term injuries and the team needs to somehow find a way to keep winning and keep performing." On the depth of his squad, Arteta said: "First of all the players have to feel trust, that we trust them. "We are really looking forward to it," Arteta said of the challenge. "He's been working so hard for the last four or five months with a lot of support from the team and the staff. We were all clapping for him," Arteta told reporters. "Delighted for him.

Following Champions League success in the week, our Gunners have a huge WSL clash against Manchester City.

Little, on the other hand, is more of a doubt for the fixture as the medical team continues to assess her injury. Our spectacular win in the Champions League on Wednesday did take a toll on our squad, as captain Kim Little was forced off after only ten minutes and Katie McCabe was substituted following a collision. As our opponents proved in the away leg, it will be no mean feat to keep them at bay. We travelled up to Manchester for a WSL meeting only a few days later and this time, City had the upper hand. Man City’s win over Chelsea last weekend had huge ramifications for a league table that has been in constant flux for months, as our game-in-hand over City and Manchester United looms. As we enter the final two months of the WSL 22/23 season, every goal, save and performance is vital to keep our title dreams alive.

Gabriel Jesus' brace ended the longest goal drought of his career to add a further sense of momentum to Arsenal's Premier League title charge.

If fixture congestion is to play a part in the outcome of the title, then City have the advantage. The big news is that Katie McCabe starts at left-back for Arsenal after being on crutches and in a protective boot on Wednesday night but her foot injury was only a bruise. They need a win to draw level on points with league leaders Manchester United, who won their match on Saturday 4-0 at Brighton. Arsenal are not exactly fresh from their Champions League victory over Bayern Munich, with Kim Little and Katie McCabe likely to be joining the long-term injury list. Gareth Taylor’s team play Arsenal on Sunday after the Gunners’ gruelling midweek defeat of Bayern Munich that earned their place in the semi-finals. Jonas Eidevall on Katie McCabe’s recovery and Kim Little’s injury: “Katie made a very quick recovery. And having the – let us say – combative Katie McCabe back is a bonus. Still, this is no occasion to worry about the weather. Of course, there are doubts about whether Blackstenius will actually score on any given occasion, but usually others will step up, and sometimes Foord or Maanum will have a stunner of a game. This is toughgoing for the home team. Charles Antaki writes in: “No Kim Little, and of course, no Miedema or Mead; enough to give any Arsenal fan the collywobbles. Maanum, scorer of such a great goal v Bayern, tries a shot but this one is way off, catching the wind to fly miles behind.

LONDON, April 2 (Reuters) - Katie McCabe scored the winner with a powerful strike as Arsenal came from a goal down at home to beat Manchester City 2-1 but Chelsea rose above them to second spot in the Women's Super League later on Sunday after a 3-0 win over Aston Villa.

Arsenal showed they have the fight to win the title in their win over Manchester City.

With Little’s absence requiring a more combative approach to get three points, it is fitting that McCabe’s strike was the difference on the day. My foot has been in ice for the last four days, trying to get the swelling down. They tried the same routine a minute later, Maanum was onside and won a corner, which led to the goal. “We didn’t even have her out kicking long balls yesterday to save the foot for another 24 hours. “(I was celebrating) with the girls because it’s been a real squad effort this season.

McCabe was playing in her third position of the game: left wing-back. It lifted the 3,982 sell-out crowd at Meadow Park and was exactly what Arsenal needed to be: combative and decisive. [their meeting at the Academy Stadium in February](https://theathletic.com/4185411/2023/02/13/arsenal-women-man-city-wsl/), Eidevall’s side could not get close to City in these areas.

Arsenal stay right in the hunt for the WSL title as a "scintillating" second-half fightback leaves manager Jonas Eidevall "lost for words".

"It's going to be an exciting run-in." It's a massive three points." I had a fantastic medical team to help me. "We want players to go away with their national teams and stay fit, and then come back and prepare for a massive end to the season," added McCabe. "We know that they're not one of the teams that are there in the end of the Champions League, but they are definitely a top European side. "Manchester City were very comfortable, cruising really. He told BBC Two: "I said to their manager [Gareth Taylor] before the game that we have played a lot of good teams this season, but no team has played as well as Manchester City did at the Academy Stadium when we played them in February. "We didn't start the game as well as we wanted to, but the team showed their resilience to come back from a goal down to then win it in the end. "Scintillating second half from Arsenal and a fully-deserved win in the end." "Qualifying for the first semi-final in the Champions League was unbelievable, and then the quick turnaround to get fit. "Then, in the second half, Arsenal came out with some energy and fire." "A full turnaround, spearheaded by Leah Williamson and Frida Maanum," Brown-Finnis said of the second half.
