my guy show for here today...
Success no get enemy true true.
As for Saliba, that guy go enter your lineup straight. You gree?

Naa he won’t bro ,Araujo and kounde na bomb ,even for national team self he only played when kounde was injured

No be matter of success baba ,Barca fan no get problem with anything mancity and arsenal .

Great we won and I think with this we can convince few more that Arsenal is damm serious about making Top-4 this season, God helping us.

We extensively discussed here few days ago what should be our best approach to this game. Looked like Arteta saw through us...To beat Spuds, we need to press higher and stop them from playing their games without a slip, because their top 3 can score with half a chance. Not every team can do that, but Arsenal has enough quality players to achieve that. And we did exactly that and we won.

Great game from Partey, just that we have to manage him carefully now. It's good to also groom Awilo. As we can see, with Partey off a more disciplined left back came on in Tierney. Partey's availability is why I preferred Zinchenko over Tierney.

Good management there from Arteta, just that I expected Vieira to have come on much earlier for Odegaard.

Good one, good win... We move to the next one, no time to check time.

The match was somehow to me. I was expecting us to score more immediately after the red card unfortunately some selfishness in he box cost us.

Ramsdale was impressive today though I kinda miss the old Ramsdale wey dey bring crazy vibe come field 8/10

White was white today. Very tidy and hard to pass by. He might have been angered by Saka's selfishness today. 7/10

Saliba , to say he was superb today will be an understatement. A middle finger for that ref for penalising him. Shey the guy no chop come field ni . 8/10

Gabriel conceded a needless penalty but the most of the fault still go to Xhaka and Saka. Nice turnover for that 3rd goal. 7/10

Zinchenko didn't perform as I expected today. He won some headers against Richarlison today though which is kinda impressive. I love the way he celebrated that Xhaka goal. His passion is something worth commending. 6/10

Partey ehn....no much talk. His goal will be giving Lloris nightmare for some days 9/10

Xhaka was impressive too. His only negative was that penalty we conceeded. An outright clearance was the better idea instead of losing the ball to Richarlison. Before he took that shot, I knew Lloris stood no chance. This is not the Xhaka we know... imagine this guy petting Richarlison when the latter wanna fight..that doesn't sound Xhaka to me. 8/10

Saka was surprisingly selfish today but what a thunderous shot for that 2nd goal. He might be playing to instruction but his decision making sometimes are questionable. 7/10

Martinelli has changed from that lightweight guy last two seasons to a brutish, bullish, confident and technical player. His decision making today was kinda off. Somebody should help us count the number of dribbles he completed. 8/10

Jesus is a proper 9 we have been longing for. His goal was a result of persistence which is commendable. And that dribble in the first half, oh my...so sumptuous . He should have won a penalty in the second half when he was tripped. A middle finger to the ref on that one too 9/10

Nketiah is a perfect like for like replacement for Jesus IMO. The way he carried that defender trabaye toward the ending of the match is a proof. 5/10

Sambi is a perfect Wenger type of player. He came in and kept everything tidy. I still think we're being unfair to this guy. Partey's form is not giving him a breathing space too. 5/10

Vieira didn't influence the match the way I expected but he kept everything tidy too. 5/10

Tomiyasu didn't play enough to fully rate him.

Kounde na senior player for that French team so he was always going to start.


Na true sha... Arsenal and Barcelona no get problem. Na Chelsea be una headache. But I'm sure you'd have troll us had we lost today. Talk trur

Kudos to arteta for the overall game management
He just showed he has improved from that man u game
He managed the second half very well
Conte was waiting for us to attack and they will break

iamoyindamola:
Bros he's a defender
All these blaming others for his mistake no go fly abeg
Did anyone spare xhaka or mustafi during their errors
Let's maintain the same energy abeg

I find it hard to fathom how you blame Gabriel but absolved Xhaka who failed to clear the ball inside the box?

I can't fathom this but when there is an agenda it must surface

Abeg carry your Mustafi fandom go meet am for German second division league

Excellent.

E be like say you dey stadium watch this match. Beautiful analysis and ratings.

Very true.

We have definitely learnt from that man United game.

You could see how they kept possession and used the back 2 whenever they were in tight situations. That high line was very hard for Spurs to handle because we had players who could hold the ball.

Our oooooo rat neva show face?

I don dey miss am somehow

Roland17:
The entire sequence that led to the goal was chaotic.. but for Gabu’s level of experience he should have stayed up. The angle was already against him as he had very little or no chance of making contact with the ball.

That red changed everything. But one thing i hated seen was that long pass from their full backs down the middle to Kane and no one could intercept. Sha happy Xhaka gets his first MOTM in 7yrs.

We forced Conte to make 4 subs at a go

I hate their long play too
It's was really discomforting

May God bless whoever scouted this guy.
To think this guy cost less than 30M compared to dem Kuli, VVD, Fofana and Freezer.

And with just 2 changes, Arteta nullify everything. Coaching masterclass

True? I don't think so.

He is the real leader of the team. Ode just dey carry arm band ni. Just look at how he sharply called a meeting after that first goal..

Leno swallowing goals like something else.
4 goals now.
I said it, he has a bigger chance of a WC spot backing up Rammy than going to Fulham.

I am not static in my thinking and always bow to superior arguments.

I sat my head down and thought of the positives and negatives of a high line.

From my post you can see where I listed the qualities required to play the pattern and discovered that we have them. I also pointed out that the most important thing here is for the players to study the game and know when to push up or fall back.

The reasons you gave was the same reason I gave previously when I talked about the highline but you said Spuds were very dangerous on counter and that we shouldn't try it.

Well, thank goodness you've finally seen it

mirinder:
you said he can't score

I said he wasn't a consistent goalscorer. That's two different things na

We still need DM wey get Energy. Partey kinda like Alex Song replicate, injury and flair.

He was saying that during post match na. Maybe he's joking.


Besides, Xhaka is the actual captain of this team. Arteta sef. Once he loves a player, he's blinded. He loves White-so he must play. He loves Odegaard as Captain- thus Armband.


The question of leader was seen today when the ref called Odegaard to talk to his guy after a foul. Ode just tap his chest infront of ref and bounced off. Twas hilarious sha. Captain go talk to hin guy proper.


Like Terry to Lamps or Mikel that year. Even down to talks, like See Jesus after one goal. That is captain duty. Ode just dey look too


Woh. We just fit overlook am sha.
