Arsene Wenger wants a WIN after a spell of drawing
Arsenal took an early lead against Bournemouth after Alexis Sanchez latched onto a poor back-pass from Steve Cook.
Eddie Howe's side then levelled things up before half-time thanks to a penalty from Callum Wilson.
However, the Gunners pushed on in the second-half with goals from Theo Walcott and Sanchez.

And Arsene Wenger was glad to see the Gunners up their levels for the final 45 minutes, claiming that was the difference between the two sides.
"Yes overall [in the second-half] I think we got better during the game but Bournemouth played well," Wenger told Sky Sports.
"They started with high intensity… physicality… and I saw and thought they would drop a little bit in the second-half.
"We were unlucky because the penalty for them was another questionable one and after that we had to improve our level in the second-had which we did."
And Wenger was also glad to see his players pick themselves up despite a disappointing 2-2 draw with Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League midweek.
"In patches yes [fluency was back]," Wenger added.
