Gary Neville slams 'rigid' Arsenal and names the 'obsession' which has proven their downfall - and why this season is more of a problem than the last two

Gary Neville has torn into Arsenal and believes an 'obsession' with one facet of their game has left them woefully lacking in the Premier League title race.

Arsenal watched in horror as Liverpool beat Manchester City 2-0 on Sunday to go 11 points clear - just a day after the Gunners were skewered 1-0 at home by West Ham.

After two seasons of coming so close, Neville feels Arsenal have butchered what should have been a crowning campaign for them - and does not rate injuries as an excuse.
