Match Threads Arsenal vs Spurs - Match Day 6

[King of the Lane]

Genuinely what was wrong or so twatty with the celebration? Can someone explain to me? Unless I missed part of it?

Its Maddison's celebration so he is trying to be an antagonising little shit

 

[glacierSpurs]

Ange got it wrong taking son off

Son was knackered and Richy could have brought another dimension of attack forward. Too bad he had no effect without crossings in to his way.

 

[rossdapep]

The fact they only scored from an OG and a pen makes this sort of feels like a missed opportunity. Wild that.

Had we had a player similar to Maddison to bring on, I think we would have taken it.

You can see Solomon is a little way off the big games. Richarlison isn't good enough to do stuff alone so didn't really have the support cast late on

 

[cjbyid]

I still don't understand why people are heavily backing Arsenal to win the league tho, they don't look it at all.

 

[Oh Teddy Teddy]

Liverpool going to be a bigger test next weekend.

 

[GarlicBread]

This is so positive. I think how well we do this year is really just going to depend on injuries to key players, not just Madison, but our full backs, Bissouma, Son.

First 11 looking superb but looks like the depth may struggle to play the style we want.

If we’d paid £80m for Van de Ven I’d say it looks a fair price at this stage. So accomplished for a young man.

Our MotM for me. But the whole team made us proud.

Was about to mention VDV. He has settled in extremely well and really quickly. What a steal if he was in fact the cheap option.

 

[EastUpperDK82]

Hope Maddison is okay...

 

[Joshua]

I’m not talking about simply lumping it. We are being pressed from our keeper to our strikers. We need to adapt to the game.

Very glad we continued as we were and played through it.

 

[Tezza1978]

We've got to be happy with that. Defended like lions against all those set pieces, still looked dangerous on the break and could have won it at the death. Son and Maddison - and Vicario - were immense

 

[TC18]

I think they can count themselves lucky. They should have had a red with Nketiah, the “penalty” wasn’t really a penalty. They huffed and puffed in the first 35 and had a lot of help with the ref booking key players for us, preventing us from being a bit more aggressive.

The lads played well, kept going which is all we can ask for. We get to go into Liverpool with positives. VDV looked good btw.

 

[Athenspur]

What a travesty that Maddison didn't get to play alongside Kane in this Spurs team.

 

[midoshairband]

I could pick any number of players to highlight after that - lots of really good performances.

but man, I love Pedro Porro. the guy has been reinvented in this role. and he can definitely defend by the way.

 

[mark87]

Why is Saka being a prick and copying Maddison's celebration?

 

[theShiznit]

We played the better football too.
Stopped a bit when Maddison and Son went off but some of Biss's between the lines play is next level, he Saar and Udogie (who after the booking barely gave Saka a sniff) are so calm on the ball.

Also thought Porro, Romero and Mickey were awesome.

 

[Hawk_Spur]

Van de Ven.

Rolls Royce.

 

[Misfit]

Big shout to Udogie, getting booked early but played with maturity after that.

Kid is immense. Got absolutely everything to be a worldy - mentality especially it seems.

 

[rossdapep]

I still don't understand why people are heavily backing Arsenal to win the league tho, they don't look it at all.

Miles behind City.

They are bringing Reis Nelson on and still starting Nketiah.

Also thought Raya looked a little shaky with the ball

 

[13VanDerBale13]

That game was very reminiscent to the Brentford game, own goal & a pen against us.

We’ve done very well given the circumstances.
