On Tuesday night against Ludogorets 15 minutes Arsenal found themselves in a rather big hole . But Arsenal showed a new-found grit and determination to dragged themselves from two goals to ultimately win the game.
Tuesday’s win is not the first time that Arsenal have displayed great determination – the determination that all title-winning sides share. An attribute that has been absent from the North London side for many years – having forcefully beaten Burnley and Swansea in tight games with late goals.
