• 90

  IT'S ALL OVER AT THE EMIRATES: Van Persie's double secures three points and keeps them four behind Man United at the top of the table. Wolves came to play but they just couldn't live with the Gunners

• Full Time FULL-TIME: ARSENAL 2 WOLVES 0

• 90

  LOTS OF EMPTY SEATS: Fans leaving in droves to avoid those queues for the train. I've never understood that to be honest.

• 90

  ZUBAR GETS AWAY FROM CLICHY: But Clichy gets back at him to win the ball superbly.

• 90

  FABREGAS CURLS ONE: And Hennessey is at full stretch to thwart the skipper. Cesc and Theo have been so, so close to scoring today.

• 90

  WE'RE INTO STOPPAGE TIME: Three extra minutes to play here at the Emirates

• 90

  CHANCE FOR WOLVES: Ebanks-Blake slams a first-timer over from just inside the box. Decent opportunity that. Arsenal are spared a nervous finale

• 89

  GREAT SAVE HENNESSEY! Walcott goes through and cuts back onto his right, gets the shot away but is stopped yet again from the Wolves keeper

• 89

  FOUR IN THE BOX: They wait for Bendtner's cross but the Dane clips that into no-man's land. Wolves break but Djourou does brilliantly again

• 88

  ATTENDANCE: 60,050 are at the Emirates. Thanks to the thousands of you listening on Arsenal TV Online

• 87

  KOSCIELNY SLIDES IN: Good tackle from him. Arsenal have looked good without the ball today and that is vital for their chance of success. Wolves have not had any time to measure a decent chance

• 86

  FOLEY PUSHES DENILSON: Free kick to Arsenal - but they give it away cheaply.

• 85

  JARVIS CROSSES... and Denilson gets up well to head away. He's looked solid since he came on. Now Arsenal slow the game right down.

• 84

  DJOUROU HAS BEEN COMMANDING: It's good to see him out there after last week's scare at Newcastle. What a fine season he's having

• 83

  ARSENAL CLEAR AGAIN: Now Song harries Hammill and Arsenal can break. Fabregas finds Walcott and he curls one just wide!

• 82

  CORNER TO WOLVES: Djourou gets up well but the ball loops up and Szczesny has to tip it over for another corner

• 81

  THE GAME IS PETERING OUT: And that suits Arsenal perfectly. Wolves aren't threatening at the moment... hang on a moment, Jarvis finds Fletcher and Djourou blocks

• 80

  Substitution SUB FOR WOLVES: Doyle goes off, Fletcher comes on

• 79

  CESC LOOKS FOR THEO: He goes for the ball over the top but Walcott is well covered by Elokobi

• 78

  CHAMAKH WORKING HARD: He blocks an attempted clearance on the right flank.

• 78

  REMINDER: Stay online after the final whistle for our post-match show. Dan Roebuck and Paul Davis will be taking your calls as well as your e-mails so phone the studio on 020 7607 3200 (from inside the UK) or +44 20 7607 3200 (from outside the UK).

• 77

  Substitution HERE COMES DENILSON: He replaces Jack Wilshere - Jack has been outstanding

• 76

  JARVIS GETS AWAY... but the flag goes up.

• 75

  CHAMAKH FINDS BENDTNER: Good ball inside the full back and the Dane cuts back inside to try his luck. The shot is blocked by Zubar.

• 74

  GOOD SPELL OF POSSESSION: It ends when Djourou tries to find Sagna over the top but that pass is overhit and runs out of play

• 73

  TIME RUNNING OUT FOR WOLVES: A third goal would surely put this to bed. Arsenal look the more likely scorers at the moment

• 72

  FREE KICK TO ARSENAL: Cesc behind it... finds Bendtner, back to Cesc but Wolves head away

• 72

  Substitution SUB FOR ARSENAL: Bendtner comes on for Arshavin. He's smiling as he trots off and rightly so - he's played well

• 71

  Substitution SUB FOR ARSENAL: Chamakh replaces Van Persie

• 71

  CHAMAKH AND BENDTNER ABOUT TO COME ON: Both are stripped and ready...

• 70

  WALCOTT CUTS THE BALL BACK: But Wolves get that away. Arshavin was lurking.

• 68

  ARSENAL WASTEFUL: Sagna breaks down the right but his cross is overhit. Then Walcott finds Clichy but his cross is poor

• 67

  ANOTHER GOOD CLICHY CHALLENGE: He's got the measure of Hammill at the moment

• 66

  CLICHY STOPS EBANKS-BLAKE: Wolves trying to find a way back into this game but Arsenal are defending well when they have to

• 65

  AT THIS STAGE LAST WEEK... Arsenal were 4-0 up. Can they hold onto a much slimmer lead this time around? I fancy they will

• 63

  Substitution ANOTHER SUB FOR WOLVES: Milijas is replaced by Ebanks-Blake

• 63

  Substitution SUB FOR WOLVES: O'Hara is replaced by Foley

• 62

  VAN PERSIE ON THE VOLLEY! And that flies wide. He stayed onside to meet a ball over the top. Could have done better

• 61

  WELL DONE SONG: He stops Henry and Arsenal break... Walcott to Fabregas and his shot is blocked! Back to Cesc and he scuffs the ball wide with Van Persie stretching to retrieve it. Dear me - another mad scramble

• 60

  ELOKOBI BLOCKS OFF VAN PERSIE: No card but Arsenal have a free kick. They look in command at the moment

• 59

  GOOD POSSESSION FOR WOLVES: But they aren't going anywhere really. Arsenal have not been under threat for a while

• 58

  HENNESSEY CLEARS - BUT IT HITS ARSHAVIN! Great chasing down by Andrey and his block could have gone anywhere. Luckily for Wolves they get a throw

• 57

  IT'S NO LESS THAN ARSENAL DESERVE: They have swarmed all over Wolves since the restart.

• 57

  ROBIN FINISHES IT OFF BUT WHAT A PASS FROM CESC! The skipper played a first-time ball that split the Wolves defence in two. Walcott raced onto it and squared for Van Persie to apply the finish

• 56

  GOAL! - Robin van Persie 2 : 0 WONDERFUL GOAL! VAN PERSIE MAKES IT 2-0!

• 56

  ARSHAVIN SHOOTS! And that's not far wide. He hit that well from Fabregas' lay-off. The little Russian is finding his form - he's been impressive today

• 55

• 54

  NO ACTION AT THE MOMENT: Van Persie and Zubar have been receiving treatment but both should be OK

• 53

  ARSHAVIN GETS TO THE BYLINE: He cuts the ball back but can't quite find Fabregas. Meanwhile Van Persie is caught by Zubar and that looks nasty

• 51

  HENRY FOULS WILSHERE: Jack has been tremendous so far today. Arsenal break and Van Persie spins on the edge of the box but then gets crowded out

• 49

  FREE KICK WOLVES: It's curled in but Arsenal clear - I think it was Van Persie. Flying start to the second half but will the home side be made to pay for their profligacy?

• 48

  ANOTHER GREAT CHANCE GOES BEGGING: This time Wilshere's low cross hits Stearman, Hennessey saves what seems a certain own goal and Van Persie lashes the loose ball wide. Arsenal really need to take one of these chances

• 47

  OH MY WORD. WHAT A MISS: Wilshere waltzes through the centre, spurns the chance to shoot and puts the ball on a plate for Walcott. He somehow sidefoots wide

• Kick Off OFF WE GO AGAIN: Arsenal attack the Clock End in the second half

• 45

  The players are heading back for the second half. Van Persie is the last man out of the tunnel but he is the first on the scoresheet today.

• 45

  Foy blows his whistle as another Arsenal attack ends with a block from Hennessey. The hosts deserve their lead but have to settle for a one-goal lead. I'll be back in a bit for the second half. So far so good Arsenal fans.

• Half Time HALF-TIME: ARSENAL 1 WOLVES 0

• 45

  VAN PERSIE MEETS WALCOTT'S CROSS: But that comes to him quickly and Robin can't guide it on target

• 45

  FABREGAS TRIES TO FIND DJOUROU: The Swiss defender stays forward but he is blocked off. It's a good game this and pretty spiky at times

• 43

  CORNER TO WOLVES: The visitors break after Arshavin has a penalty shout turned down. Now the Russian DOES get a decision his way - but Chris Foy stops Arsenal taking it quickly! He's not a popular man right now (but not as unpopular as Phil Dowd was last week!)

• 42

  Yellow Card WALCOTT IS BROUGHT DOWN: And that's a yellow card for Zubar. Seconds earlier Djourou challenges Hammill inside the Arsenal box and Wolves have a penalty shout turned down

• 41

  PAUL DAVIS: 'It's very comfortable for Arsenal at the moment'. Have your say at www.arsenal.com/studio

• 40

  ARSENAL KEEP THE BALL: And now Walcott gets down the right and sends in a cross that is miskicked up into the air by Stearman. A second goal would be very welcome

• 39

  WILSHERE IS DOWN: So is Arshavin. Play goes on but both men are groggy. Colin Lewin waits to come on but the ref says there's no need.

• 37

  FABREGAS ON THE BREAK: Finds Arshavin, he's crowded out and Van Persie is caught in possession. Fabregas tries his luck but Hennessey gets behind that

• 36

  ARSENAL CUT THROUGH WOLVES: But the flag goes up again. Walcott played in Arshavin but he was marginally offside. Great save by Hennessey anyway

• 35

  KOSCIELNY IS STRONG: He uses his upper-body to fend off Doyle's attentions.

• 34

• 33

  WALCOTT ON THE CHARGE: He goes down the right and then looks to catch out Hennessey but fires wide. Looking at the replays, it's incredible that Arsenal didn't score a minute or so ago. Desperate stuff from Wolves

• 32

  WILSHERE CLIPS A BALL INTO THE BOX... and Fabregas almost gets there ahead of Hennessey. Good keeping again though

• 31

  WOLVES SURVIVE... SOMEHOW! Arshavin tricks his marker and squares for Walcott but Hennessey makes a wonder save before Fabregas' shot is blocked. So close to a second

• 30

  HALF-AN-HOUR GONE: And Wolves have another corner. Milijas takes it but Arsenal head clear. The visitors are certainly going for it and there is space to exploit if Arsenal can use it

• 29

  BAD CHALLENGE FROM ZUBAR: He takes out Arshavin but the ref didn't seem to see that and play goes on. Fabregas curls a shot over the bar

• 28

  HENNESSEY HAS TO HURRY: But he clears a back-pass with Arshavin lurking.

• 27

  BOTH MANAGERS GIVING INSTRUCTIONS: Wenger and McCarthy both on the edge of their technical areas at the moment. Arsenal's boss is unhappy because the ball is not being worked through midfield - too many lofted passes towards the forwards

• 26

  WILSHERE INTO THE BOX: He goes down the left and cuts back but Walcott is beaten to that

• 25

  PAUL DAVIS: 'The fans wait for something to happen against teams like Wolves or West Brom. They don't cheer as much'. Have your say at www.arsenal.com/studio

• 24

  HAMMILL WITH THE CORNER: Good delivery and Zubar is there first but his downward header goes wide

• 23

  GLORIOUS SUNSHINE NOW: Two seasons in one game so far here today. The floodlights are on though - you just can't trust this English weather

• 22

  ZUBAR BARGES INTO WALCOTT: But that's a fair challenge. Walcott and Arshavin have switched wings to give Wolves something to think about

• 22

  LANSBURY SCORES FOR NORWICH: Henri is doing well on loan at Carrow Road. They lead Reading 1-0

• 21

  WALCOTT GOES DOWN THE RIGHT: He wins another corner but Van Persie's delivery is not good enough. Wolves clear. Arsenal well on top since the goal

• 20

  IT CAME TO HIM QUICKLY: But Arshavin really should have directed his volley goalwards with the net gaping

• 20

  ARSHAVIN MUST SCORE! But he misses from three yards with Hennessey stranded!

• 19

  CLICHY IS CLATTERED: Arshavin curls in the free-kick and Djourou gets up high but his header deflects over for a corner.

• 18

  THAT CAME AS A SURPRISE! If only because Arsenal had been on the back foot. Wolves were enjoying a good spell of pressure but Cesc's vision and Robin's right foot changed all that

• 17

  HE USED TO CALL IT HIS CHOCOLATE LEG! But Van Persie's right foot is as potent as his left now. He dispatched Fabregas' diagonal ball on the volley with great aplomb

• 16

  GOAL! - Robin van Persie 1 : 0 VAN PERSIE SCORES FOR ARSENAL! Robin gives the home side the lead with a wonderful finish!

• 15

  KOSCIELNY DOES WELL: He slides in to concede a throw when a corner looked a certainty. Hammill tries to cross but Clichy blocks

• 14

  SZCZESNY CLAIMS AGAIN: That looped up into the air but the Pole takes it comfortably. Good spell from Wolves though

• 13

  JARVIS WINS A CORNER: Wolves get another chance to sling the ball into the Arsenal box... but Szczesny punches well

• 12

  GOOD CATCH FROM HENNESSEY: He climbs to take Sagna's cross at full strength. That's the right back's first foray forward

• 12

  WALCOTT TRIES TO GET AWAY: But Elokobi comes across and lashes the ball high into the stand

• 11

  PAUL DAVIS: 'Wilshere has made a strong start'. Have your say at www.arsenal.com/studio

• 10

  DJOUROU PENALISED: And he's not happy about that. Chris Foy's early decisions haven't been great

• 9

  POOR KICK FROM HENNESSEY: But Fabregas can't quite take advantage. The rain has relented by the way, gone as suddenly as it arrived

• 7

  ...DANGEROUSLY WHIPPED IN... but the flag goes up for offside and Djourou was first with the header anyway

• 7

  FREE-KICK TO WOLVES: They did a lot of damage from set-pieces against Man United last week, remember...

• 5

  VAN PERSIE OVER THE TOP AGAIN: This time Song sets him up with a surge and short pass but Robin sliced that first-time effort

• 4

  VAN PERSIE STEPS UP... and curls a shot over the bar. Good opportunity goes begging. Arsenal have started well though

• 4

  IT'S IN THE NET! But the ref has stopped play! Fabregas slammed the ball past Hennessey but the game had been stopped for a foul on Wilshere. The ref should have waited a few seconds really

• 3

  GOOD PLAY VAN PERSIE: He collects a pass from Arshavin and bursts into the box. Wolves clear his cross but Walcott threatens and wins a throw

• 2

  THAT IS SOME SHOWER: We're safe here at the back of the press box but the players have had a drenching. Arshavin did get forward but his cross was cut out by Zubar

• 1

  EARLY TOUCH FOR KOSCIELNY: He's had a haircut too and it's getting very wet - the heavens have just opened!

• Kick Off WE'RE OFF AND RUNNING: Van Persie and Fabregas get us underway at Emirates Stadium.

• Wolves must have won the toss because the teams are switching ends. Arsenal will attack the North Bank in the first half

• Alex Song is blonder than ever today. That is one hell of a hairstyle. Fabregas gets some strapping on his wrist at the side of the pitch and then jogs over to the centre spot for the coin toss

• Cesc Fabregas leads out the Gunners in their familiar red and white colours. Wolves are in their traditional old gold.

• The players are in the tunnel, going through their final preparations. And here they come...

• To my left are our commentary team of Paul Davis and Dan Roebuck. They'll be on in a couple of minutes to bring you all the action and field your e-mails. Send your comments via the website at www.arsenal.com/studio

• The players are trotting off the pitch after their warm-up. Djourou is one of the last off for Arsenal in his yellow tracksuit top - he's a sight for sore eyes after last weekend's knee scare

• I've made my way up to the press box. The sun is out, 'The Wonder Of You' is getting an airing and we're just ten minutes away from kick-off

• Man Utd 2-1 Man City. So lead is now seven points over Arsenal ahead of today's game at the Emirates. Three points imperative for the Gunners against a Wolves side that ended United's unbeaten start to the season last weekend

• City have ten minutes to find an equaliser at Old Trafford. Here at the Emirates we have just over half-an-hour until kick-off. Our MatchDay Show is just about to get underway.

• Incredible overhead kick from Rooney gives United a 2-1 lead in the Manchester derby. Bad news for Arsenal but it really was world-class

• Arsenal subs: Almunia, Denilson, Squillaci, Eboue, Gibbs, Chamakh, Bendtner

• With the exception of the injured Vermaelen and Nasri that is probably the strongest Arsenal XI. Arsene Wenger is true to his word - Wolves is a vital game, Barcelona can wait

• The stand-out names are Djourou and Song - both are fit to start. Not many Arsenal fans would have expected that after watching the Swiss defender limp off at Newcastle last weekend

• The Arsenal team is in and here it is: Szczesny, Sagna, Djourou, Koscielny, Clichy, Wilshere, Song, Fabregas, Walcott, Arshavin, Van Persie.

• I'm Chris Harris, your text commentator, and I'll get the team news to you as soon as it's announced. Just in case you're not watching the Manchester derby, United lead City 1-0 early in the second half. Boo.
