Arsenal rose to the top of the English Premier League table after a 3 -1 victory at home to Stoke on Sunday.
That left the Gunners two points in front of both Chelsea and Liverpool, though north London rivals Tottenham Hotspur will join them on 12 points if they win away to Cardiff later on Sunday.
Wales midfielder Aaron Ramsey, who suffered a leg injury following a poor tackle by Stoke’s Ryan Shawcross three years ago, made it seven goals in eight games when he gave Arsenal a fifth-minute lead at the Emirates Stadium with a close-range strike after Potters goalkeeper Asmir Begovic had palmed away a Mesut Ozil free-kick.
Stoke, however, were back on level terms when United States international Geoff Cameron scored his first goal for the club in the 26th minute with a controlled shot from the edge of the box after Marko Arnautovic’s volley had come back off the post.
