Arteta‘s side will now be hoping to maintain that advantage or even extend it as they prepare for their next four league games against Bournemouth, Fulham, Crystal Palace and Leeds.
And Morgan, a huge Arsenal supporter, has hailed the performances from his team.
Speaking on talkSPORT, he said: “I’ve never seen the Emirates as loud and universal in it’s support for a team and manager as it is now.
“The media are loving the way Arsenal are playing. We got spoilt in the first eight years under Wenger in the way they played.
“I think this is the best quality of football and best squad we’ve had since the Invincibles days.
“Are we going to win the league? We’ll see, but there are only 13 games left.
“Our next four games are relatively easy and I say that not taking games lightly.
“If City were to trip up and we go eight points clear… I’ll leave the rest to you.”

Arsenal have not won the Premier League since Arsene Wenger’s men went unbeaten throughout the 2003-04 campaign.
And the likes of Gary Neville have questioned whether this crop of Gunners stars have what it takes to clinch the title.
But SunSport columnist Morgan has very little doubt about anyone in the squad.
He added: “My argument for the last 18 years has been there have been so many weak links in the team.
“You’d see Arsenal go out against the bigger clubs: Chelsea, United, City, whatever. There were always weaknesses in those starting XIs.
“I don’t see any weaknesses now. I just see a mixture of youth and experience, players who’ve got the right attitude now.”
