Fortunately, Gabriel and Dixon’s blushes were spared as Nicolas Pepe's second half strike and a last minute own goal by Wolves' goalkeeper Jose Sa gave the north Londoners a vital 2-1 victory.But the match, and quite possible their top four hopes, were almost sidelined, after the former Arsenal defender compared White and Gabriel to Arsenal Invincibles Martin Keown, Tony Adams, and Steve Bould.
