'Margin should have been bigger': Arsenal boss Arteta on nervy 1-0 win over Everton

Mikel Arteta

Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta said his side have to learn to kill games off while they are winning after reclaiming top spot in the English Premier League with a 1-0 win at Everton.

Viktor Gyokeres scored the only goal from the spot as the Gunners moved two points clear of Pep Guardiola's Manchester City.

But after needing a stoppage-time own goal to beat bottom-of-the-table Wolves last weekend, Arteta was again made to sweat for 96 minutes against a depleted Everton. "The margin should have been bigger. We have to learn while we are winning," said the Spanish coach.
