Match Threads Arsenal vs Spurs - Match Day 6

[EastUpperDK82]

Well... we are not boring anymore are we ?

 

[ItsBoris]

God no

Why? Our midfield is the weak spot so far and both are on yellows

 

[MiakSarawak]

I like how we play, but just need to cut out the silly mistakes, which i attribute more to nerves.

Continue to play this way 2nd half, believe in themselves and we will win

 

[punkisback]

We seem so languid in our approach to this game.

We always do at Emirates. Really don’t know why. Every game looks like they’ve pumped some sort of relaxant into our dressing room.

 

[$hoguN]

People are proper negative.

Apart from their deflected shot they haven’t really tested us (although they have forced some mistakes).

Raya pulled off a wonder save otherwise this is 2-1. This is like American boxing judges scoring for pressure. We are well in this, probably need to consider bringing on Hjobjerg

 

[Dov67]

Would be amazed if we dont get a red today. Seems like the ref is itching to book our players

 

[philll]

Have to say I'm concerned about the yellow card situation, especially for Udogie and Sarr.

 

[Kirito]

Don’t usually complain about refs but this one is being influenced by the crowd too much. They said it was his biggest game and it’s showing.

 

[midoshairband]

Solomon for Johnson and probably Pierre for Sarr. can't have both CMs on yellows.

 

[only1waddle]

This playing around at the back is just ridiculous. It will cost us eventually.

It's not changing at any point so we just have to embrace it whilst it gets implemented, it's a brilliant game to improve long term against the high press but nerve racking in the now.

 

[George94]

That's the problem, refs are more interested in booking players for shouting at them rather than actual fouls on the pitch

 

[hooty]

Overall I think a pretty good half. Basically went toe to toe with a very good team, that pushed Man City for the majority of last season. Lots of young players out there.

Fine, we lost control for a bit for about 10-15 minutes but overall quite impressed. Am so happy to see a genuine attacking plan rather than just sit back and counter and hope Son/Kane produce some magic. So refreshing.

 

[bigfrooj]

Sarr is struggling a bit, probably his worst game for us. Holjbjerg would positively love this game, that’s my only change at half time. Richarlison to come on later on.

 

[chas vs dave]

Have to say I'm concerned about the yellow card situation, especially for Udogie and Sarr.

Same here. Im concerned

 

[Ghost Hardware]

If only Johnson could finish

Solomon against a tired defence should be good second half.

 

[fecka]

Brennan is clearly nervous and hesitating at both ends of the pitch. If he doesn't improve significantly after the break I believe he'll be the first to come off

 

[glacierSpurs]

We have 3 players on yellows.

Sarr did pull him down but we got no advantage from previous foul.

Udogies wasnt a foul and only his first.

Biss gets carded for calling the refs shit out

Saka has to be booked based on the ref's standard, but no. Disgraceful.

 

[Barmy_in_Palmy]

This playing out from the back shit is not working here today. I hope Ange tells them to stop

Why would he do that, he wants them to play out the back, have you read nothing from him about how he won’t compromise on his philosophy.

 

[AllReb]

I like how we play, but just need to cut out the silly mistakes, which i attribute more to nerves.

Continue to play this way 2nd half, believe in themselves and we will win

Unless we get a red which this Ref can’t wait to give!

 

[werty]

Romero and a few other are taking too many touches, which is putting other players under pressure when they finally get it.

We've been much better in second halves of games this season so hopefully that continues
