Was awful the first half, but massively improved the second.

Definitely not awful.

He wasn’t the Greek God of the right hand side but he did his job.

I’d rather that than what the three banter boys would have done

 

[tap-in]

Unfortunately he'll be at CB on Thursday

Yeah but at least that's his position.

 

[ptrcopp]

"Only Özil scores goals like that in this stadium!"

Elite stuff from Martin Tyler

“Bouncy goals”

 

[Mrs Bergkamp]

I'm delighted with the win and the effort all players put in. Even though Auba struggles in attack at times,he cleared our box at corners! Laca was a beast snd Kola is really good when playing further forward. A shout out to Leno who I thought looked a bit soft early on but he's been coming into his own lately. Laca and Sokratis will be a big miss on Thursday but that's for another thread. Happy to be a Gooner tonight.

Or Lauren.

He was great at them

That guy was a beast and cold as ice on the spot.

 

[Mrs Bergkamp]

Emery interviews and thanks the fans for their support. He waffled on about energy, intensity and application and asks the fans for more of the same on Thursday and to fill the stadium and get behind the team. Well done the fans today despite some quiet moments.

Lovely stuff.

There was a spell during the middle part of the match (latter part of the 1st half to the middle part of the 2nd) where we were under fire and it felt as if we were losing control of the match, but we rode it out very well. Thought Emery needed to make changes there as we couldn't keep possession and United brought wave after wave, but we fortunately came out of it unscathed. Overall, not a vintage performance, but one we'll gladly take as it could have easily gone the other way on a different night.

Laca and Leno my co-MOTM. Both were equally instrumental in their roles in attack and defense respectively. Sokratis and AMN were also great in defense, some wary passes notwithstanding. Kola was a nice outlet down the left hand side, linking up nicely on several occasions to spark an attack.

Nice goal from Xhaka, with both he and Ramsey putting in decent shifts. Still not convinced with Auba taking the pens (prefer the "put your laces through it" style rather than the trying to be clever method, especially when his run up is so basic and doesn't try to put the keeper off balance with a stutter), but hopefully it brings some confidence back into his game.

Emery has also been solid in big matches. Only City and Liverpool (who are not our immediate rivals atm) have gotten the better of us in head-to-heads in our matches against the top 6. We've gotten the better of Spuds and United and matched Chelsea. So between our immediate Top 4 rivals in Chelsea, United and Spuds, we've come out positive.

Top 4 is in our hands now considering our remaining fixtures compared to our rivals. We should aim for the third spot as it is in our grasp. It would be hilarious to see us have another St. Totteringham's Day when all the talk was about how Sp**s were in the title race only several weeks back.

Guys, watch Hannover vs Leverkuson highlights. What weather and a game! LOL.

I think he looked poor because of the same reasons Bellerin loons poor - there’s a clear lack of defensively support on the at side.

Kola has Xhaka, who has been very good poaitionally recently, and Monreal, who knows how to play the LB roles, AMN has Ramsey and Sok.

Not only that, Rashford is pulling out onto that side which doubles or even triples the personnel he has to deal with.

Thought he improved in the second half, to be fair.

 

[blaze_of_glory]

Really good performance all around. Credit to Emery, got the guys set up in s way that really gave Utd a lot of trouble.

 

[ptrcopp]

Thought he improved in the second half, to be fair.

He did, but Sok and Auba (and then Saurez) definitely did more to support.

Özil created 4 chances today

He was meh, but who cares? Not a day to pick out poor or average performers. Everyone gets a ten.

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

Need to destroy Rennes now to go to international break with good position

Who could SIT through this game?

Another big game masterclass from Emery. Even with the useless officials who could have easily screwed us over and believe me they tried, we produced yet another big performance. Maybe the big sides will start to hate playing us again, we're a different animal in these type of games now.

I like that, different animal. We showed a lot of c*nt today as well which I liked tbf, going down a bit easy, some tactical fouls, slowing the game down. Was enjoyable.
