Martin Odegaard and Bukayo Saka’s end-time goals equaled 3-3 at the bottom home of the Premier League table, but the lead of the big guns on the chart Mikel Arteta has now been reduced to only 5 points and Mikel Arteta’s team has played two more than Manchester City teams they will meet at Etihad on Wednesday.

Jesus told Sky Sports after the match:

“We don’t want to come here and be negative because we are very positive. The season we are doing has been fantastic.

It’s a Premier League, it’s not easy, it’s hard; you compete against a very autistic team like Southampton; they play, try to defend well, then attack.”

He continued:

“We still have a lot to do this season, nothing is over. We still have five clear points; they have two games in hand; if we want to be champions, we need to go there and win the match.”

Arsenal will travel to Manchester City on Wednesday for the biggest game of the season and will also determine the destiny of this season’s Premier Leauge champions.
