16 Conclusions on Arsenal 3-1 Spurs here, look.
2. Arsenal are not shit. Arsenal might actually be really quite good, you know.much had changed on both sides of North London since the last Emirates clash almost exactly a year ago
Last season’s Arsenal would not have beaten this Spurs team 3-1. We prefer not to dwell too long on what this Arsenal would have done to last season’s Spurs. For the first 45 minutes, this was a fascinating and excellent game. Chiefly because those first 45 minutes went exactly as anyone who has watched these sides would have predicted. Arsenal dominated possession and played with fizz and confidence and always, always, always on the front foot.
What it shows, when you then throw in catastrophic individual errors like Lloris’ for the second goal and Emerson Royal’s fury at the holes in the back of Gabriel Martinelli’s socks, is how fragile it all is. This was a game to hammer home the idea that Conte’s methods require players of a level that is still ever so slightly beyond Spurs. You need to get lucky, which Spurs didn’t for the opening goal, and you need to be flawless, which they weren’t for what followed.
