Despite coming out on top after the Big Four weekend, manager Arsène Wenger says that the race for the Premiership title is still a four-way fight.
Second-placed Manchester United beat Liverpool to cement their position in second, a point behind the Gunners, who beat Chelsea.
Wenger said: "Liverpool have had the biggest disappointment but they are not out of it.
"Neither are Chelsea because they showed today they are a good team.
"We are confident. The belief is there but I prefer that it remains a four horse race because it is more interesting.
"It makes a day like today great for the Premier League. As long as there are four teams in it the interest in the Premier League is even bigger.
"We have shown great character in the fight today, in the one-to-one duels. We were dominant on that front and that is not the case usually."
