Manager Arsène Wenger was understandably happy with his side's performance against Manchester City.
The Gunners went 2-0 up courtesy of goals from Emmanuel Adebayor and Eduardo da Silva, only for City to pull one back before the break.
But Arsenal were always in control and never looked like conceding the three points, especially after Adebayor scored his second at the end of the game.
Wenger said: "We had a good start and went 2-0 up but we then lost concentration and eased up and were punished when they made it 2-1.
"The game opened up in the last 10 minutes when City went for a second goal but until then they kept good discipline.
"When the team plays well Adebayor scores and he is outstanding at the moment and we need him in this form.
"We have good confidence within the side because we know how we want to play."
