Ratings for Arsenal

[garryparkerschest]

Kane, Bentaleb, Mason 10.

Everyone else - Above 9.

The most complete performance I have seen in a longtime, with this being Tottenham that could mean EVER.

Did you notice how many Gooner players who were marking Lamela when he got the ball? It looks as if he always had at least 2, if not 3, player closing down his space. Not easy to run with the ball then...

This! I thought lamela was very good! Every time someone passed him the ball he had at least 1 or 2 defenders breathing down his neck. Monreal specifically. Almost all of his one touch passes were accurate and found either dembele in the hole dissecting a defensive line or walker in space on the overlap. A large majority of our many attacking moves that ripped them to shreds involved at least 1 clever little turn or first time pass by lamela. And he was probably our worst player!

What a performance! By everyone. Players fans club. I wish I had the time to dissect the entire performance but I just wanted to say that we played the goons off the park, played so damn well in fact, that even our quietest player was outstanding.

I thought Dembele performance was good in parts but I was much more happier when Chadli came on...what does that say?

We needed a goal at the moment so moving eriksen into the middle and Chadli wide made sense. Dembele has done magnificently in the ten role recently. He's been driving at the defense, attracting tons of defenders and then laying off balls for Kane or eriksen. I think it's a very good foil for our system. A beast in the heart of an opposition defense who the other, more flakier but composed players can feed off.

Very solid all round team performance, its interesting reading everyone`s individual analysis of the game, in particular Dembele playing in a more advanced role, to my very uninformed eye this makes it look like we shape up more in a 4-3-3 style which seems to suit us much better.

My man of the match is Poch. Deserves a lot of praise he turned a team full with underperformers and willingless players to a real Tottenham-team you absolutely have to love and you just see how good the spirit in this group is. He now found his core and they are the totally right ones. Just get rid of Ade, Kaboul, Capoue, Lennon and maybe Soldado and Paulinho and replace them with players who have the same hunger like Mason, Nabil or Harry.
Already buzzed to see the integration of Pritch and Alli in this team and Levy will like this way also.

Back to the game another praise for Poch to have the balls to play Dier instead of Fazio. Totally correct decision for games like this. He even gets the best out of Dembele in the last month.

So fucking proud of this group hopefully they can kick on.

Individual ratings:
Lloris - 7
Rose - 8 - very good going forward, too easy to beat in their first goal.
Vertonghen - 7.5
Dier - 7.5
Walker - 7.5 - best performance o fthe season so far for him.
Mason - 8.5 - needs to be more accurate with his passing/ long balls but feck me he was everywhere.
Bentaleb - 8.5 - lost Koscielny for a free header in second half but bossed the match most of the time.
Eriksen - 8
Dembele - 8
Lamela -7 - pretty uneffective in front of the goal and final third but played an important game in the pressing and keep it ticking in the middle. Good performance.
Kane - 9 - incredible

team+coach - 10
