Arsenal 5 - 2 Tottenham Hotspur: Just what we needed

They could have easily scored 3 goals... Not even exaggerating.

I wish we had played them with 11 men for the 90 minutes tbf. That gives us a better idea of the current team. We would have probably still won because our attacking was brilliant. But it would have been a lot more harder.

Hope wenger sees this

what we really needed was a win against Spuds.. and we got a big win.. all that currently matters is the momentum and confidence we get to move forward...

I never understand those passing graphs people post

LOL, me too.

I agree with RG, on Wednesday we must win big and take out Vila next week.

Did you guys see Kompany say Arsenal were the best team they have player this year.

"I didn't really see it," Walcott said. "But I think he did go in quite two-footed but the referee's made the decision and you'd have to ask him what he felt.

The result of working for Arsene Wenger for 6 years You could have told me AW was the one who said that and I wouldn't doubt it for one second.

hahah, agree,
AW style.

It is a clever way to answer like this.

Actually our defensive line is very dangerous in the first 15 mins,
once again, hopefully AW can see this is how "brittle" our defence without a DMC!!

Most happy to see are:
- the chemical reaction of Sanga, Walcott, and Cazorla
we must keep Sagna and Walcott in the coming seasons.....
- Wilshere is so active and his passing to two flanks are very high quality

Sagna

Actually re-watched the entire first half to observe the first 18 minutes and what I saw was some bland football from both sides and exactly 2 good chances from both. We started to come alive after about 12 minutes so your claim that you were dominating is null.

Hahaha, that has to be my new sig

I love this picture, or collection of pictures:

The Giroud one is going straight to my signature space

Jack Wilshere and Cazorla immaculate first touch:

Plus an extra Villas Boas blank face:

Omg, that AVB gif, I remember laughing when I saw it live

This was against 10 men, but nonetheless its exciting to think how much potential the midfield of cazorla and wilshere have to keep improving. Walcott also seems much more dangerous with them.

Also, since jack returned, wenger has stopped using a double pivot.

Wilshere plays ahead of Arteta and behind Santi. They both rotate actually. But it's true and it is a bit weird though.

I guess we are changing back to 4-3-3

Sagna--------------Koscielny----------Meretsacker---------------Gibbs

You guys think that squad is good enough to win a cup or two and finish in top 4 ?

did you sell our captain?

when everyone fit inject some youth for cups and thats good enough imo
