He also made three tackles and three recoveries, showing excellent commitment to keeping Wigan on the floor, despite the commanding lead he orchestrated in the early stages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If Arsenal are to create history in the final third of this campaign, they&#8217;re going to need Eze in this sort of form throughout. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-arsenal-s-quadruple-hopes-build\">Arsenal&#8217;s quadruple hopes build<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Between Liverpool and Manchester City, it feels like we&#8217;ve been overdue for a historic quadruple in English football for some time now, but on this occasion, it&#8217;s Arsenal in the driving seat to do something never achieved before.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Gunners are four points clear at the top of the table as they seek to end their near-22-year wait for a Premier League title, while they await the other side chasing the quadruple, Man City, in the EFL Cup final.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Both sides are going strong in the Champions League, reaching the last 16 and waiting to find out their opponents, while City made it past a stubborn Salford side 2-0 in the FA Cup on Saturday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But it&#8217;s Arsenal who hold all the cards, and a performance like this will only serve to underline their credentials. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Winning the quadruple may still feel like a pipe dream to even the most optimistic of Arsenal fans, especially considering how quickly it has fallen apart for Man City and Liverpool in their recent attempts. But right now, they&#8217;re showing no signs of relenting as they utterly dismantled Wigan Athletic here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-next-for-arsenal\">What next for Arsenal?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This was the perfect way for Arsenal to recover from their disappointing 1-1 draw at Brentford on Thursday, but Mikel Arteta will not be taking anything for granted &#8212; especially given the lack of quality shown by Wigan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Gunners will continue their Premier League away triple-header at Wolves on Wednesday, quickly followed up by a North London derby at Spurs on Sunday. <\/p>\n\n\n<h3><strong>Read more:<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/news\/\"><strong>Latest football news<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\r\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/bet\/football-tips\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Football betting tips<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\r\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/bet\/betting-sites\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Best betting sites<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\r\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/bet\/betting-sites\/best-free-bet-offers\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Best free bet offers<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\r\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.squawka.com\/en\/bet\/football-tips\/accumulator\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Football accumulator tips<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Arsenal breezed into the fifth round of the FA Cup with a 4-0 win over Wigan Athletic at the Emirates Stadium on Sunday.
