Tomas Rosicky was Arsenal's hero - his two goals were more than he had scored in his previous 65 league games, while he also produced a goalline clearance.
But what looked like a comfortable win was thrown into jeopardy when Mertesacker clumsily brought Shane Long down on 70 minutes.
West Bromwich squandered several good chances to take at least a point in the frantic final stages, with Romelu Lukaku and Shane Long both guilty of bad misses.
- An incredible late goal from Matthew Lowton set Aston Villa on course for a 3-1 win which dragged Stoke into the relegation mire.
- Luke Moore scored a late equaliser to end Swansea's run of Premier League defeats with an entertaining 2-2 draw at Norwich.
- Nigel Adkins's first home game as Reading manager ended in defeat as Southampton cruised to a 2-0 win at the Madejski Stadium.
