Wolves 1 Arsenal 4:Arsenal secured an emphatic victory against Wolves to keep the pressure up at the top of the Barclays Premier League table.

They got a helping hand in the first half from the home side, with both Ronald Zubar and Jody Craddock scoring own goals.

Arsenal kept their foot on the pedal, Cesc Fabregas and Andrei Arshavin extending their lead before Craddock got a consolation goal at the correct end.

Arsenal midfielder Fabregas should have added a fifth goal in the 76th minute but sent his effort over the top from close range, after Robin van Persie had squared the ball into his path.
