Ian Wright admitted Arsenal got lucky with two poor decisions against Bournemouth.
The Gunners maintained their title with a 3-0 win over the Cherries, albeit with some controversial calls.

Bukayo Saka gave Arsenal the lead from the penalty spot just before half-time after Kai Havertz won a penalty.
The German star was brought down inside the box by goalkeeper Mark Travers and after a VAR review the penalty was not overturned.
As Leandro Trossard and Declan Rice made it 3-0, Bournemouth had a goal disallowed from Antoine Semenyo, with Dominic Solanke adjudged to have fouled David Raya.
As a result, the goal was scored – and VAR again decided not to intervene in the decision on the pitch, despite the soft nature of the free kick.
Bournemouth also appealed for a foul on Philip Billing in the same phase of play.
When it came to X, even Arsenal legend Wright felt his beloved team got away with one or two.
He said: “I didn’t think it was a penalty. Bournemouth’s goal should have stood. Job scored three points.”
Discussing the post-match incidents, Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta said: “The honest answer is I didn’t see any of the incidents because I knew you were going to ask me. I did done on purpose.

“The analysts asked me if you wanted to watch it and I said no because then I can tell the truth.
“I haven’t seen them so I can’t comment or have an impression.
“The one on David, the fault, I can’t see it because it’s too far away. The one on Bukayo, was it done on purpose or not?
“I don’t know, it’s so hard for me to judge.”
