Kieran Tierney made his first Premier League start since Boxing Day as Arsenal again failed to secure three points after taking a two-goal lead, this time against West Ham.
With Oleksandr Zinchenko forced out with a groin problem, Tierney was forced to try and pick up the Ukrainian's duties drifting into midfield but suffered from a lack of service at times.
Meanwhile Declan Rice received applause from both sets of fans during the game, with the travelling supporters believing the England midfielder may well ply his trade at the Emirates next season.
A Said Benrahma penalty and a goal from Jarrod Bowen drew the Hammers level, and possibly put a significant dent in Mikel Arteta's title ambitions with a seemingly unstoppable Manchester City hot on his heels.
