MATCH RESULT ARSENAL 2 vs 0 WEST BROM AS SANCHEZ SCORED TWICE.

The Gunners dominated Tony Pulis' side from the first whistle in north London on Thursday night, with their Chilean attacker netting a first-half brace to seal a vital win
Alexis Sanchez scored twice as Arsenal tasted victory in the Premier League for the 500th time with a 2-0 win over West Brom at the Emirates Stadium.
Sanchez made it six goals in his last six league games with a first-half double, his first a low drive from outside the box and the second a free-kick that deceived Albion goalkeeper Ben Foster.
Gareth McAuley hit the crossbar with a header in between the goals, but Arsenal were otherwise rarely troubled as they recovered from successive draws against West Ham and Crystal Palace to move above Manchester City into third place.
With four matches to play, Arsenal now hold a two-point advantage over City and are four clear of Manchester United in fifth on a night that saw them move closer to Champions League qualification against a backdrop of empty seats at the Emirates.
West Brom slip to 15th and have just one point and one goal from their last five league outings as their wait to mathematically secure safety from relegation goes on.

ARSENAL FORWARD ANDREY ARSHAVIN BLAMES FAILED TITLE TO WENGER.

Former Arsenal forward Andrey Arshavin has questioned the club’s reliance on managerArsene Wenger and has pointed to his conservatism as a possible cause of their failed Premier League title bid this season.
The Gunners sat top of the table as late as January this season but now find themselves 12 points behind leaders Leicester City following two consecutive draws with West Ham and Crystal Palace.
Arshavin, who joined the Emirates club for a record £15million from Zenit St. Petersburg in 2009, believes that a damaging factor in the failed title fight is the club’s reluctance to question Wenger and his ideas.

NO CURRENCY SWAP DEAL WITH CHINA-FG



As you know, a lot of importers now are complaining that they are not able to access dollars to buy goods and things like that. So, if in addition to dollars, we have the Yuan, then they can also have it available. So, it has given us a greater opportunity for our economy so that those people can also now import notwithstanding the shortage of dollars. So, that is really what it is more about, rather than a swap deal or any such thing.
“It’s not really a swap. What it is, is that as the Chinese economy goes strong, there is some pressure on them from trading partners, international financial institutions. They agreed that the money should be internationalised. So, they started that for a while. They were protecting it also. They did not allow it to be fully exchangeable. But now, their economy is fully strong, they are looking for a way to internationalise the currency. Now, they are saying essentially that they want to segment it. For Southern Africa, South Africa is going to be the sort of a hub for the currency. In West Africa, they’re looking for a hub. Ghana is interested in being the hub for the currency to circulate for those who want to use it. It is not compulsory. But Nigeria is a bigger country with bigger economy. So, that does make sense. And they became a kind of attracted to Nigeria to be the hub.
