Arsenal have rarely been accused of winning ugly but it was a charge they will joyfully accept after a 1-0 victory at Manchester United befitting that unflattering description - and then some.
Mikel Arteta's side were scrappy and well below their fluent best against a desperately poor United but this was three points that meant the world to them.
This eyesore of a game was settled by Leandro Trossard's 20th-minute swoop at the near post after Casemiro fell asleep - not literally of course - in unforgivable fashion to play Kai Havertz onside.
