Ahead of spuds. On goals scored!! :d
Good win - from a fan perspective, you’d have loved to continue pummelling your rivals, but they did what they needed to do.
Can I just say at this point:
Fuck Spurs.
Good game but Arteta could have avoided conceding if he'd made some subs on 65-70 minutes, it was obvious Saka was getting tired and we should have brought on Pepe and maybe Laca to give spuds something new to think about
Still, we won and Ramsdale and the defence were generally really solid - Tayamasu is already a legend :cool:
Souness has been on the scotch again
Not surprised we didn't keep the pressure going - these players are still very new to each other, some are still very young, and a lot of them have been working their way back to full fitness and / or have been cramping up after the hour mark. I get the feeling we knew we'd have to fly out of the traps at them because we probably knew we'd fade.
Agree with Mac - need to use our subs a little more wisely as we work our way up to peak conditioning. There's some good, athletic options there now - might need to just put our faith in power and pace for the final 30 some times?
