Arsenal climb to summit after dramatic fightback

Arsenal came from two goals down to beat Bolton 4-2 and move above Chelsea at the top of the Premier League. Bolton had deservedly raced into a two goal lead by the 28th minute as Arsenal failed to make their dominance count.

Gary Cahill volleyed Bolton in front and Matthew Taylor scored from the penalty spot.

But the Gunners are a more resilient outfit these days and Tomas Rosicky pulled a goal back just before the break.

Cesc Fabregas equalised soon after half time but the visitor's were unlucky as William Gallas had fouled Mark Davies in the build up.

Thomas Vermaelen hit the third with his right foot before Andrey Arshavin scored late on to complete a memorable victory.
