And, for all Arsenal's recent struggles, it is worth noting that only Manchester City and Manchester United have taken more points than them in the Premier League since then. They rank seventh-bottom in the Premier League for conversion rate this season. There may still be three Premier League games before the curtain falls on this most unique of seasons, but that challenge begins now.

Apart from Kane, there is no striker in the Premier League you would rather the ball fell to in the last minute of a game than the Saints man.
