If they play thst game 10 times without Rodri and De Dryune Arsenal would beat them at least 8 times. Rodri is too strong in the City team
Maybe it was a blessing not playing saka.
My sister and I would catch more river perch just bouncing a jig along the rip rap than any other fancy presentation. That is why I liked seeing Jorginho starting.
Nobodyās talking about Odegard. He was absolutely fantastic today. His pressing and work rate in general was out of this world.
Imagine that Arsenal team with a world class striker like Osimhen, they would be devastating and could really go toe to toe with City for every title. But still a great performanc even with an average striker like Nketiah.
wow arsenal beat 12 men man city, even after michael oliver's hard work for city coming back from dubai
Canāt seem to keep Spurs out of their mouth, mind your business in Woolwich and weāll mind ours in North London as it belongs to N17.
So your telling me that City has become " Rodri FC " š š š š
Lucky goal
City didn't have Xhaka to get a red card and play 11 V10
The back was functioning good & Declane Rice was superb assissting the back 3.
As a villa fan, give some credit to spurs whether they win or not is another topic for now they are at the top of the table.they are at their best position since 1961-62…i am impressed with this Tottenham team.cxnt wait game against us..and these punditps are bunch of biased airhead
Jorginho was amazing today! Definitely made up for that error against Tottenham
Man City didn't convert their respective chances…don't get it twisted. Stop making it more than what it is.
As long as city pass sidewards and backwards they will lose many more games they just got no pace moving forward lots to be blamed on ederson cos he brings play to a standstill
Arsenal needs to make sure they donāt drop points to some pesky mid table teams now. I mean draws especially. Thru canāt keep pressure on City if they draw too much. I like spurs but agree they can be 3 or 4 but not 1. We have a genuine challenge here at the top. Liverpool are solid and may challenge too. 3 horse race, if City gets ppl back.
Spurs are the better team. Arsenal lucked a deflection to win against a seriously depleted Pep team. That was a dreadful game to watch. Championship mid table clash.
Not playing Kalvin as a proper CDM, idk what pep is doing…
Pep got it wrong. Why buy Phillips for 50m, not start or play him when he's the most natural replacement for Rodri… and playing Bernardo as CDM?
It was a revenge.
D Rice is the key player in that game, he was the player who was detecting the game all along⦠great player
This Shaka guy is always high
Nobodyās talking about Eddie . He was not even there . Such Great Talent . Even city did not care to defend him š
Declan was screaming at Jesus for not passing him the ball when Jesus took a tumble near the goalpost. A split second opening but Arsenal could have taken the lead earlier.
Great to get Oxlade Chamberlins reaction
Did city play badly or did Arsenal limit City?
I knew well shaka hislop from his playing time. One of best howlers and butter fingers, but today he is talking like achieved something incredible…you feel salty as usual on arsenal's growing
For the match between the two most attacking sides from last season it was a little crazy. A combined Xg of 1 was produced with a game starting with zero natural wingers on both teams and ending with eight center backs on the pitch.
Just give arsenal the credit they deserve abeg
Gibbs is always a gooner for life
Why no body talking about the clear corruption and bias towards City for the refs? Kovacic deserved two red cards today
Who ever cuts your videos needs a pay rise… hopefully they'll concentrate a little more and cut them in at the beginning of a convo topic and cut them out at the end of it. Radical stuff.
A bit more shooting or ideas inside the box today. Too many over the bar shots from odegaard when easy pass was on. But quite good display.
ā Tbh, I get that City are missing key players, but people forget:
Arsenal donāt have Saka, Timber, missed Martinelli for the first half coming back from injury, Partey came on with 20 minutes left also coming back from injury & Arsenal have significantly less depth than City do, if anyoneās expected to cope with losses of big players it would be City cause of their superior depth & quality on the field āoverallā, however, today it was Arsenal & there aināt no downplaying that
A game of 2 defences!
Arsenal have finally lost that duck off their back!
Fortunate deflection?! Yes! But Arsenal were well versed!
Brighton, Villa,Newcastle and West Ham title deciders. Top 5 would drop points from these trams
Talk about Harvets linkup play ,,assisting Martinelli goal š¤
If Declan Rice is worth Ā£100M then Trent Alexanda is worth Ā£200M as a midfield player, especially going forward ā¦. TAA skills on the ball AREā¦miles apart !
Saliba is SPECIAL. If he doesn't get injured they win the league.
I'm starting to worry about Ray's tendency to hold on to the ball for far too long around the goal post. We were lucky twice….too close to comfort….he needs to read his field fast and move the ball out safer and quicker…..
It's good for Liverpool playing against those little contender Away from home now next year won't be so much of a challenge
LoL spurs never get the credit but don't worry. U guys are In for a surprise. Ange ball is here
I cant believe they beat city without Saka!!!!im a United fan but i live trough Arsenal succes:))) beautiful….thats how we should play….. you put Osimhen in the winter in that team and they will be unstoppable !
Great gunner gibbs
This game was chess, a defensive masterclass. Reminded me of the massive Italian league games in late 80's and 90's. Not every game can be 100 miles per hour…
tbh the earlier games BHA/LIV n WHU/NUFC were more entertaining games…
Craig, you lose credibility when you forget players names of the teams your critiquing.
City still winning the league
Nobody mentions the injuries arsenal had last season against city. Hislop always says we when making reference to city. Bias punditry at its finest.
Shaka!! What ever came out of his collapse on live Tv? Good to see him healthy.
