West Ham have injury-time goal disallowed as Arsenal go five clear

This season hasn't always been easy on the eye, but Arsenal are now on the brink of their first Premier League title in 22 years.

The Gunners were made to sweat yet again in their dramatic 1-0 win over relegation-threatened West Ham, with Leandro Trossard's score and a disallowed West Ham goal the difference for Mikel Arteta's side.

The vital victory stretched Arsenal's lead to five points ahead of Manchester City, who have a game in hand, and put league silverware in touching distance after three successive second-placed finishes.

Some will say Arteta's side have got here the hard way, while others will argue victories secured when a team does just enough to get over the line is the mark of champions.
