Draw Premier League: Arsenal vs Tottenham Hotspurs | Sunday 24th September | KO: 14:00 BST | Sky Sports

Prediction

Arsenal 2-0 Sp**s

 

[RandomHero84]

Take a look at United and Chelsea. It's happening all around. I suspect the WC has something to do with it, and surely the +10 minutes extra times will also affect especially later in the season.

I will be really surprised if Maddison isn't injured after this also. Ange said he wasn't 100% even before the match, and they kept him on the field after the incident.

Timber also kept playing after he got injured badly. Really stupid from Tottenham to keep him on the field. Keeping on playing can make it much worse.

But Maddison is an injury-prone player, which is part of why I have never preferred him.

Looks like when you take an old action figure out of a congested toy box.

I'll be honest, bar the first 30 minutes, our performance was very poor, much like every other performance in the league so far this season.
Ødegaard was totally nullified, to the point of him being invisible, and Nketiah was a total waste of a shirt today. Looked completely disinterested throughout. How he managed to play a full game i'll never know.
Our passing was abysmal, constantly giving the ball away, and we looked lethargic, slow and weak.
Unforgivable error from Jorginho as well, a catastrophic brain fart of epic proportions.
We didn't lose, but something isn't right with us so far. Maybe teams have figured us out a little bit? I don't know, but it's down to Arteta and the players to start putting solid performances in again.

 

[Dennis_Bergkamp_10]

Credit where it's due, Sp**s deserved a point.

We played poorly, too many mistakes and not enough threat. But that's what you get with players like Nketiah, who works hard but just isn't good enough.

Also Jorginho can go and **** off. Can see why @Mitch rates him . Piss poor excuse of an athlete.

You have your answers in your own post mate.

Martinelli & Trossard both getting injured before NLD resulted in Nketiah having to start.

Rice getting an injury even in the 1st half, Partey being already injured, and Jorginho with no match sharpness giving a horrible gift goal resulted in Arsenal losing focus for tens of minutes.

Earlier in the season Zinchenko and Jesus were out. Now it's other important players. It affects a lot. Has not much to do with teams figuring Arsenal out if your comparison is to some prime Arsenal from last season when most important players were fit.

IMO it is getting used to playing 3 games a week. We haven't had CL football in so long so this is new to everyone bar Jesus and Zinny. We have to go up a level from last season in everything we do.
And as much as we want to beat them esp at home, Sp**s are a very good side and playing their best football in a long while. IMO the draw to Fulham was where we really shouldn't have dropped points.

Saka was disappointing today IMO. He was roasting udogie, who got an early yellow, looked like he had the opportunity to really destroy him. But was relatively quite from that point on, where was the killer mentality? Also his goal scoring reactions definitely got a reaction out of Maddison, he was heavily involved in both goals and absolutely destroyed Saka in the first goal.

 

[rockofcashel]

Only finally got to see the Jorghino mistake now on MOTD.. wtf was he at

He's definitely wayyyyy too slow for games against any half decent level of opponent

Bloody hell that pic makes it look quite bad. Hope he’s ok but wouldn’t be surprised if he is now out for them for a period of time.

The defending was schoolboy error stuff for the first alright.. he'd a chance to step inside and face an oncoming Madison, but chased him to the touchline and got turned easily enough

Pretty poor

Ah, @albakos, I just realised why your phone is blowing up!

 

[albakos]

A bad result, but results like these are temporary.

What is important for me is that I got to see a live Arsenal match, so the emotions and the superb matchday memories will stay with me forever.

And yes, this dream of watching a live Arsenal match was made possible for me by no other than a very generous gentleman from A-M.

This forum is unmatched

Shame we didn't win bro so it left bit bad taste for you but glad you enjoy it.

How was the reaction when we conceded after scoring?

Not good brev

To his credit, I think Arteta is trying to find a way to be more robust to injuries, but to me he hasn't been able to crack it. Essentially what you are saying here, if we have 2 or more injuries to starting 11, than the quality of our football is going to drop significantly. We are not going to be playing many games of quality this season if that's the case. Its still a bit too much goldilocks football for me.

Were not playing the same style as last season. We are aiming for more control in matches to help with issues of fatigue and longevity. We are still teething and becoming accustomed. Its necessary to evolve, beyond what we were last season.

Cant just remain the same because it 'worked before', when in reality it didnt work last season.

We could try to reach a new level and go through the teething process, or we remain the same like Man United and make no effort to progress our football because it 'worked before'.

 

[Mrs Bergkamp]

Overall, I thought we played poorly. Even the first 30 minutes when we were more dominant wasn't that good. I've given up on the individual player comments now as for so many to ne off, it must be a tactical issue

 

[NZgunner]

Get used to it boys and girls - I don't think there will be a league challenge, other teams will be more wary of us and the additional games will only lead to more niggling injuries, fatigue and relying on players like Jorginho and Nketia.

Best we can hope for is consolidating champions league for next season and having a good run in it this year.

I nipped upstairs to do some errands at half time.

"do some errands" yeah my girlfriend gets bored by half time too, needs attending to
