GET IN!!
Huge win.
8 points clear. 14 ahead of Spurs.
It's on.
The spuds (can I say that?) are absolute shite, which is quite surprising from a Conte team.
They couldn't deal with our pedestrian plod up the field. And because they allowed us (or were incapable of preventing us) to play at 5mph it was an in inevitable outcome.
That City fullback is quite good. Eddie has a lot of potential. And Saka has diverted his attention from diving to playing which means his talent is making a difference.
Nothing really notable up front though.
The real difference is t the back.
It looks like Arteta has coached an Arsenal defence to do the basics. Finally.
That will make a huge difference in this very mediocre league.
Another monstrous result. We looked so assured and composed for most of it. Really starting to look like a team that could be champions.
If we beat United next weekend I think there will be a very good chance we can go on and win it.
Great 1st half performance, assured second half performance. Massive win, onto the big game next week against United.
Spurs were there for the taking but how many times had that been true and we’ve shat our pants? Not this lot. There does seem to be more steel about this team.
I can still foresee some challenges as the pressure mounts up and injuries take their toll but holy shit who wouldn’t have taken this at the start of the season?
They still have some sperm in their balls, a kind of residue. Whilst most "men" don't. So they have an advantage.Quote:

I don't think I'll ever tire of watching that strike from Odegaard.
It was actually very good. A very rare occurrence. He's a very, very improved player. Very calm on the ball which is massive. I guess you have to give a lot of credit to Arteta for recognising that. I didn't two years ago when the guy was running around like a headless chicken. But that's what being a manager is all about, spotting that potential through a cloud of shite.Quote:
