Summary

Dave Jones presents Super Sunday and is joined by Graeme Souness, Jermain Defoe, Jamie Redknapp and Alan Smith as they react to and analyse the talking points from Arsenal’s battling win against West Ham at the London stadium which saw the Gunners bounce back into the top four after Spurs’ earlier win against Leicester. All four pundits singled out Eddie Nketiah’s performance and praised the forward for his impact in Arsenal’s attack. Alan Smith feels the Gunners have now got strong character’s in the dressing room and look more ‘streetwise’ which allows them to dig out difficult results that they have previously been criticised for not doing. There is also reaction from Arsenal’s Aaron Ramsdale, Rob Holding, West Ham captain Mark Noble and both managers, Mikel Arteta and David Moyes.
