Arsenal fans are in a delightful mood after their side beat Newcastle United at the Emirates to leapfrog Tottenham and go up to third in the Premier League standings.
The mood was right at the Emirates as Arsenal ensured they collected three points against a resolute Newcastle United side and ensured their tenth successive home victory in the Premier League.
A first-half goal from Aaron Ramsey and a late strike from Alexandre Lacazette were enough to seal the win, although the Gunners were made to work hard for their rewards in the end. Disallowed goals could have been the talking points after this game if Arsenal had ended up dropping points in the end.
So naturally, the three talking points from the match emerged and circled around Ramsey, Lacazette, and Arsenal going third on the table. Let’s take a look at some of the reactions across Twitter, beginning with Ramsey, with fans celebrating the Welshman while also mourning the fact that he will leave the club in the summer.
I always miss the games when Arsenal play their best. #Ramsey

@LacazetteAlex was imperious once again. The energy and work rate he brings to our team is superb. Decisions go against him, gets roughed up yet he does not stop and his goal tonight was well deserved. Superb Laca. #Lacazette #Arsenal

Really impressive from #Arsenal tonight – measured, controlled and incisive. #Lacazette was superb, twisting and turning like an eel and a superb finish. #COYG #ARSNEW #bbcfootball
