There's no denying that Arsenal's last-gasp heroics at Tyneside will inject a dose of confidence into Mikel Arteta's squad, much like Liverpool's even later game-winner at the same venue last month. However, there won't be any panic at Anfield just yet over this result or indeed Saturday's 2-1 defeat at Crystal Palace, Liverpool's first setback in a season that until now had been flawless, perhaps even too flawless given the number of late winners.

James's Park this season, as well as hosting Manchester City, Arsenal's Premier League schedule for the next month appears to be quite favorable. In contrast, Liverpool will be playing Chelsea and Manchester City in its next five Premier League games, as well as hosting Manchester United, who, despite the jokes, managed to secure a draw on the team's last two visits to Anfield.

With pundits like Neville keen to fuel the title race, it's certain that Arsenal's chances will be discussed extensively over these next few games, but they are indeed very winnable ones for Mikel Arteta and his highly skilled, resilient squad. Last season's Liverpool title procession wasn't enjoyable for many, including Neville, so you can expect Arsenal's upcoming weeks to be driven by goodwill and a narrative sense of destiny.
