Arsenal were too casual and then they showed some gumption at last. What a match. Plus, some views on Salah, City and more.
If ever you wanted proof that we are not THAT Arsenal team anymore, there you are. It’s almost like Mikel wanted them to get close just to prove a point.It was a weird game, although not quite the one-sided onslaught for Spurs that Gary Neville was trying to tell us it was when it was 0-3. Spurs should’ve scored through Romero and then of course did score through Van De Ven. It was very tight and honestly, if they’d have said onside I’m not sure we could’ve argued it.
As expected, the crowd got back behind Spurs and there can be no complaints about the penalty they did get. Michael Oliver not giving it first time is poor, but I’m not sure about the Spurs fans screaming CORRUPTION when VAR rightly called him to the screen to overturn it, which he did after a single replay.
Every team raised their game against them because, you know, it was United. But even then they, seemingly, always found a way to win. Mark . MCFCFirstly those were the exception to the rule. Since then: Souness failed to succeed Kenny, Evans failed to succeed Souness. Houllier then did a great job for three years before successfully being replaced by Rafa. Rafa was then succeeded by Hodgson, Kenny again, Rodgers before being successfully replaced by Jürgen.
I want to be optimistic about Slot, his record is pretty good; though we should temper that by also saying it’s a record in a league where Steve McLaren took FC Twente to a league win over Ajax and PSV as well. Steve McLaren is now assistant manager to the last Dutch coach out of Holland…Ten Hg. Also there hasn’t actually been a single successful Dutch coach since Cruyff. They tend to be decent cup managers and not much else.
And dare I say it, is sympathy making an appearance? Sympathy that they do not seem to have any competent football people behind the scenes, Sympathy that the dead man walking manager comes up with new ways to make himself look silly after the latest subpar performance, Sympathy that the new goalkeeper drops at least one clanger a game, sympathy for having to watch Antony, sympathy for the defensive injuries , sympathy for the forlorn hope that sir big Jim and the cycling genius will...
CM: Rice – No real explanation needed, he seems to be getting better and better and developing his game very well at Arsenal. Possibly England’s most important player after Kane. RW: Saka – He has a combined total of 33 goals & assists in all competitions for Arsenal this season, played very well for Arsenal in the UCL this season and could still win the League title. Palmer has definitely stood out for Chelsea, but Chelsea are a midtable team and are shocking. Palmer is certainly unlucky not to start, but he will be on the plane to he Euro’s and he would be a bloody great impact player off the bench if one of the wingers or Bellingham is having a stinker.
