Oh come on people, I’m starting Monday morning on a HIGH.
Arsenal turned around a one goal deficit twice against Aston Villa with 10 men.
You can’t knock that, you really can’t. That’s finding a next level that feels very much born of last seasons 22 game unbeaten run.
Matteo G was an absolute monster. I’ve always been a fan of his, but I was unsure what his special sauce was. We’re starting to see that. He’s a leader. He drives games forward, he makes elite passes, he’s a beast when he wants to be, he’s a goal threat… he’s the player other players more senior than him look to for answers.
He is captain elect.
To slip back into misery for a second, we were predictably dross in the first half. Our midfield was there to be bypassed, there was no real leadership from our captain, and our defence was typically ponderous. We went a goal down to McGinn, he ghosted in after a ball bypassed about 6 players, his grazed touch easily sailed past Leno.
To make matters worse, AMN, who complained midweek about playing as a right-back made a stupid challenge for his second bookable offence and found himself taking an early shower. It was dim, but honestly, this right back experiment has been awful and it’s clear the player hates it so much he’s willing to break plates in a dishwashing disaster just to rid himself of the burden.
The second half saw Calum C introduced for Saka (who was good). With 10 men, we still looked a threat, but Villa were probing. We won a penalty, Matteo powering into the box, forcing Engel to shove him to the ground. Auba let Pepe take the penalty, the largely impressive Ivorian slotted it calmly down the middle for his first goal.
You’d have hoped Arsenal would hold their nerve, but we didn’t, we let Villa in, before attempting another embarrassing short goal-kick that saw a poor touch from Calum eventually lead to a Wesley goal. We’re such a mess on the pitch, that sort of carry-on is inexcusable.
Emery pushed the nuclear button and subbed his captain and Ceballos off on 72 for LT and Willock. It was an inspired decision. He invited athleticism and hunger onto the pitch and it created an entirely different vibe, even with one less man.
We clawed our way back on 81. Matteo fed a teasing ball to the back post, Chambers didn’t do well with his first attempt, but he poked a looping shot over the keeper at his second go and made it count. Superb work, and the perfect remedy for his earlier mistake.
The second goal came from an incisive Auba freekick. He really is worth his weight in gold, his experience in front of goal is absolutely invaluable to us at the minute. As someone said on the Twitter website, he’s a success key, when he’s in your side, you always have a chance.
The players celebrated the win like we’d just won the World Cup. I could be petty about the levels here, but to be honest, after the last few weeks, it’s nice to know they still care.
WHAT DID WE LEARN:
Granit Xhaka:
The team were booed off at halftime, Granit was booed off as a sub. Terrible. Awful. I hate to see it. But really, I don’t. He’s not our captain. He’s a joke. He is the single worst decision Emery makes each week without fail. I don’t care that it’s not nice, I don’t care that Arsenal class seems to generally be geared around beta males celebrating mediocre ideas and hearting cute Wenger allegories on Twitter, the reality is, Xhaka is a poor player and we need him to take gardening leave.
Bellerin would be a better captain… so would Matteo.
Athleticism:
Emery has a weird thing with hierarchy in his squad. Everyone could see that Saka was a better prospect than Reiss, but Reiss starts. We’re opting for Xhaka in our midfield despite three years of average. Let’s just call a rabona a rabona… our best midfield is Willock, LT and Matteo. It lacks experience, it’ll have bad days, but that’s the most explosive we can be. Emery needs to wake up to this. We need hunger, pace, power and output. Those three made a statement today in a short space of time, let them have a crack at United. Could it be a worse idea than 31 shots against Watford or getting shoved around by Villa for an hour?
Unai Emery:
I’ve been getting a mixed bag of messages on the manager from people that know. Some think he could be in danger. He’s clearly not connecting with the players, his ideas are average and though the table is telling a story… the story is a fucking lie. The table lies all the time, and if you think where we are now is a true reflection of what we can be, we’re OVER.
Others that I speak to say there is no chance of him leaving.
The rationale? He’s where he needs to be. The table is all that matters to Raul and Edu. The gut feel amongst a lot of people is this: We’re a better shade of shite when you look at the others. United are a mess, Chelsea are not a worry until next year, Spurs are having problems, and Leicester is a mirage.
The leadership team just want top 4 and they’re going to gamble that those around us are so bad, Emery will come out where he needs to be.
Hard to argue the logic.
We have a lot of easy games coming up, if Emery can shake things up, we will no doubt be in a threatening position when December lands. If we’re within spitting distance, he’ll keep his job. I think he’ll comfortably be in the mixer by then, because we have a lot of very, very good players.
Today’s turnaround was in spite of him… not because of him. I know that sounds petulant, but I think most get what I mean. Emery spent most of the second half rooted to that bench, twitching out like someone had dropped 2Gs of MD in his WKD at a Carl Cox Space reunion. That is not a good look. He has fear in his eyes, but I think the players are good enough to work around him, just like they did at PSG in season two when he basically gave up.
That doesn’t mean the inevitable fail won’t happen
… but that will only last so long, sustaining it until May is a longshot. But the club is risk-averse, Raul was a big part of Emery’s hiring, and things aren’t bad enough on paper yet to make a move.
I can see the rationale, but for me, the sooner we move him on the better. Skanking your way to 4th is not progressive. Betting your future on an average manager with conservative ideas will not take you to the promised land. The longterm damage a top 4 Emery will do to Arsenal is unthinkable, but there’s every chance it’ll happen.
That said, don’t underestimate Spurs and their ability to bounce back. Chelsea has a lot of good players, I think you’ll see a strong finish from them. United are a disaster, but they have good players, so a clever caretaker could be a threat.
I will celebrate the win today. I am very excited by the players we have but I cannot abide by this manager. He’s rank average and the win cannot disguise the performance, the decisions, or the consistency of bland we’ve seen over a season and 7 games.
On reflection, if the brief to replace Arsene was a pragmatist that could improve the defence, we really should have hired Conte. If that’s still the brief, then we should look at Allegri who now has a good grasp of English. Rip the plaster now… because no amount of tinkering will save us in January.
We won’t though… and that worries me.
See you in the comments.
Oh yeah Ozil was playing at some point tonight. Ah not to worry I’m sure he did enough to start against United on Monday….😆
Danny s
“I read that Emery asked Eddy to stay this season and fight for a place and it was Eddys choice to go on loan so……”
I know, it wasn’t a dig at Emery , I was in support of Emery in wanting Nketiah to stay …he would have enjoyed it out there tonight .but let’s not go there.
Anyone who says the first goal was flukey shouldn’t be taken seriously at all and it should be made obvious that it’s just someone with an agenda they won’t let go off that would say stuff like that.
Absolutely love Tierney though, straight up thought we were wasting time chasing him in the summer but i raise my hand up,almost like i was watching a pool LB or a City LB, let’s hope he keeps it up.
If Xhaka or Sokratis are anywhere near the starting 11 on Monday then I’d sack Emery right before kick off
Fantastic result, what we should be playing like in the EPL.
Well done to our youngsters.
Good vibes about martinelli, think the kid has something about him.
Saka, Holding, Tierney, Martinelli, Willock all looking very promising.
Chin up Pierre everyone has a mare at some point.
That Cazorla goal vs Barca tonight was fucking elite.
I’m scratching my head like is Tierney at the right club?? I havent seen an Arsenal full back cross and find his man time and time again and also constantly fall back into position while defending. Like it’s freaking me out!!! LOOOOOOL… what is this player we bought??? 😀
Pierre
Give it a rest. We know the problems.
Arsenal won 5-0 and Spuds lost to Colchester.
Life is good.
Ljungberg and Per’s excellent work long overdue the recognition it deserves.
Spurs fans talking about Pochettino saying ‘I think his time is up’.
Stupid little fuckers forget themselves, as if he’s responsible for holding them back as opposed to elevating them to the position where they feel as if they are being held back.
They really are utterly delusional.
Spurs just aren’t understanding Poch’s philosophy. Must be his English.
No Premier League club has lost more matches in 2019 than Spurs.
CA
“Stupid little fuckers forget themselves, as if he’s responsible for holding them back as opposed to elevating them to the position where they feel as if they are being held back.”
Who do those “stupid little fuckers” remind you of……
Jamie
I think what he did wrong was bottled leaving.
He could have been at Madrid, PSG, Munich etc.
Poor old Pierre is having a meltdown.
If Emery reverts back to type, which I think we all feel he will do at MU, he could be cutting his own throat.
Cesc this decline actually started last season but was written off here as Spurs focusing on the UCL. It was nonsense then.
Imagine someone writing on here we were rubbish in 2006 in the league because Wenger prioritized the champions league, he would have been lynched.
The project has stalled for Pochettino at Spurs and how he gets them back on track will be the true test of his supposed “greatness”. Still feels weird calling a coach with zero career trophies a great coach.
Bennyd ‘What a great striker Martinelli’s going to be, like Bergkamp and Anelka rolled into one. No wonder the club decided to let Nketiah go on loan, they knew Martinelli needs games too. Brilliant.’ Please tell me you’re a child. If not I’d advise putting your crack pipe down. Interestingly Holding played on the right of the two meaning he’ll slot in with Luiz playing in his usual right sided cb. Sokratis the fall guy. Will be a very capable back 4 once the 2 full backs and holding are ready to start regularly. Very dynamic team tonight, lot of… Read more »
—————–Leno——————–
Bell Chambers Holding Tierney
—Ceballos Torreira Guendouzi—
–Pepe——–Auba—–Martinelli–
Looks like the best we can muster
This or similar (if you prefer Saka or Willock somewhere) should be posted all over for the next 6 days to put some pressure on UE
Manure are wank and wounded atm and we should take the game to them.

“No deflection on Martinelli second goal ”
It was going in row Z but hit the back of a forest defender and looped in .
Ca
Delusions of grandeur, Poch will leave Tottenham and they’ll slip back into obscurity.
Levy is as bad a ceo as Ed Woodward, he lucked out with Poch, before that it was one bad hire after the next.
CA They really are utterly delusional. Like a posters name here, aptly named: Forever in our shadow. Bunch of cunts. In other news. Really pleased with the youth tonight. Yes we played Notts. County but the youth have done exceptionally well! What i really liked is that they kept the pressure on to make sure we scored an additional 2 goals instead if sitting back basking in our 3 goal lead. I’ll admit I shouted myself hoarse to push the kids to do this and they did!. Whether UE understands that we need to be playing at a higher tempo… Read more »
Goonah
You would choose Martinelli ahead of Saka. ?
I must watch a different game to you lot…
Really inspiring win tonight.
But as they say in America, pump the brakes a little. We have been here before with Carling cup performances. This one hopefully is different. I liked the energy and mobility. Would much prefer seeing youths making mistakes whilst growing, than seeing the usual smelly suspects.
Ufraud
“Poor old Pierre is having a meltdown.”
Less of the poor….
I know it was Forest but that was a damn good performance. Better players, better results. Emery just has to figure out his best team and substitute/rotate as needed. Chambers isn’t a right-back but the fact that he’s quite good on the ball makes up for any shortcomings he may have playing in that position. He’s clearly a much better footballer than Maitland-Niles. With Tierney, we finally have a left-back that can cross. Bellerin will no doubt benefit from him being in the team. Hoping that both of them and Holding stay fit for the remainder of the season. Willock… Read more »
Pierre I have argued for a very long time that DEFENCE is key to success. A solid combination at the back allows the midfield and strike force to concentrate on their offensive strengths. Arsenal have potentially one of the best front line combinations in EPL with Aubameyang, Lacazette and Pepe. There is also plenty of young talent at the club coming through system with next generation in Martinelli, Nketiah, Saka and Nelson. The midfield is not outstanding, but it is better than many posters suggest. The main issue is finding correct balance between defence and attack. Players like Ceballos and… Read more »
Cesc – For sure. I think he really, really wanted the CL win so he could leave with legendary status. He’s spent £140m this summer and might lose £100m in free transfers (Eriksen, Alderweireld and Vertonghen) next summer. Massive hit for them to take with their stadium debt. I guess he realises it’s going to be tough to sustain their level without more summer spending like last one (which is unlikely). Dropping out of the CL next season would be a disaster for them. He’ll probably still get a move to Madrid or Utd sooner rather than later. Spurs are… Read more »
Pierre
It´s 50-50 for me on Martinelli/Saka
Love the drive and hustle from Martinelli. Found the net twice aswell
Goonah
Don’t let the goals fool you, he looks a bit too kick and rush but has bags of enthusiasm and is direct so who knows.
Stroller
“If you want to get best out of these two players then you need
two hard working and mobile DMF/CMF playing behind them.”
Exactly…its all about balance and tonight we had it.
Its over to you Emery.
Hopefully Emery realises that Ozil is finished. Couldn’t even muster up an assist in a goal glut at home against a Championship side. Chambers showing him how it’s done.
Off home to console himself with a late night Fornite sesh. Good lad.
Jay LDB10
They will appoint Howe I think if Pochettino wisely fucks off.
Where they are now is because of Pochettino and the style he implemented there, he has extracted more from that side than it’s worth on the field and they are totally deluded if they think they are being held back.
Jamie
It could be great, they lose Eriksen, Alderwiereld and Vertonghen for free, they miss out on the UCL, they have to pay Lo Celso’s fee next summer which takes away their budget, they have that massive stadium debt as well and then Pochettino fucks off.
Cesc –
The ultimate Spurs trifecta for next summer – no CL, they lose those 3 players on frees, Poch resigns.
Wow I like that picture Cesc, a tail of rising but never winning or fulfilling anything then a sharp decline and all the loss that entails.
Has to be an Ilma Gore, she’s the lady who painted Trump with the tiny penis. Perfect for Spurs.
Cesc Appeal “Stupid little fuckers forget themselves, as if [Pochettino is] responsible for holding them back as opposed to elevating them to the position where they feel as if they are being held back.” Pierre “Who do those ‘stupid little fuckers’ remind you of …… ?” For those who don’t understand all of the dynamics here, this is Pierre suggesting that Spurs fans’ calling for Pochettino’s head is akin to Wenger critics here and elsewhere calling for Wenger’s head back in the bad old days. Seriously. Pierre thinks these two things are analogous. That is, Pierre thinks Wenger’s many critics… Read more »
Back from the Emirates. A few observations: 1) Yes it was only Forest, but it was nice to feel as relaxed and carefree as a City supporter when it came to our defence and being able to savour the variety and range of our attack. Good goals too. 2) Fantastic to have Holding and Bellerin back.The best thing about Holding is his calmness and assuredness (I know, only Forest). 3) Great to have proper fullbacks. Tierney looks the real deal, with great positional play, accurate crosses, and a good eye for a pass. 4) It may take a few years… Read more »
Stroller, agreed.
Every title winning side over the last 20 years has been built on a solid defense. At least one world class defender.
Adams
Ferdinand
Stam
Terry
Campell
Vidic
Company
And probably van dijk this year.
If we are going to challenge for the title in the next 5 years, we need to identify and recruit a world class defender.
WOAB,
Quite often Fans who attend games and fans who watch on TV have slightly different opinion of players.
For example Nelson is timid in attack, but is diligent on defense. However that aspect is lost on TV. I also thought that he grew in the game.
Also Saka may be electric going forward, but you can also see in some exchanges where his inexperienced and naivety shows. Özil disguised free-kick was made to be hit first time. He tried to control and the opportunity was gone.
Cesc,
It feels like the mini-trophyless-revival engineered by Levy and Poch over the last few years is coming to an end. Poch looks disenchanted. “World class” players like Eriksen who we were told was gonna be sold for £100m is going for a free and the burden of the stadium debt is gonna weigh on them.
As CG would say, tick tock.
Bamford I haven’t called anyone anything. I do think it is a little ironic for a WOB to call Tottenham fans ” stupid little fuckers” for criticising Pochettino ,and I quote. ” as if [Pochettino is] responsible for holding them back as opposed to elevating them to the position where they feel as if they are being held back.” This is EXACTLY what happened at Arsenal EXACTLY.. Arsene Wenger elevated Arsenal football club to a higher level than at any time in their history and the fans (WOBS) held him responsible for holding the club back . This is EXACTLY… Read more »
Valentin,
You’re right about the difference between watching matches live and in TV.
I agree that Nelson is positionally/defensively more aware than Saka and that he grew into the match Hopefully his timidity is a confidence thing and a few matches like today could help him become a little more assertive in attack
Bamford As much as I may have my differences with you, I 100% agree with you re Pierre. I can’t respect a supposed Gooner who put a manager before his club, The Arsenal. He will never understand that we did this for the club that we love. We hated seeing the club being dragged in the mud and laughed at. We all respect Wenger…. for his first 10 years. Unbelievable football was produced thanks to him. But power got to his head and lead us to where we are now. All I want now is for the club to act… Read more »
I really hope that tonight game showed UE to trust the kids.
I am not saying that we have to play them all the time.
What I am saying is that they have displayed more commitment than some of those so called seasoned pros that still ghost around the club stealing a living.
I want to see more of that commitment to win!!!
Leg db10
You are missing the point , mine or your opinion of Wenger are irrelevant .
My point was , how can a WOB call Tottenham fans stupid little fuckers for disrespecting Pochettino when this WOB did exactly the same to Wenger .
Now ,if it was me calling Tottenham fans “stupid little fuckers ” then I would be well within my right as I agree , they are stupid , ignorant and clueless for disrespecting the man who has done so much for Tottenham Hotspur football club…
That is my point ….the rest is irrelevant.
My point was , how can a WOB call Tottenham fans stupid little fuckers for disrespecting Pochettino when this WOB did exactly the same to Wenger .
I think when CA did it he meant in the sense that they (Spud fans) don’t know how good they got it under Poch and they’re lucky to have him. Wenger at the end there was such a pile of shite so the scenarios weren’t the same he clearly had to go after so many years and warning signs. Not really the same scenario
The ways in which Pierre thinks he’s better than other people are just so fucking imaginative though, I have to give him that much 😂
The weird thing with Pierre is you get the feeling now that he’s going to be on a mission to downplay and ridicule everything the lad Martinelli does to try and appear right about the whole Nketiah thing.
FYI Pierre Martinelli in one game scored more than Nketiah did in all of the 8 senior appearences he made last season. One more goal and he’ll equal his total for the last 3 seasons.
Pierre
For the record, its well within all of our rights to call Tottenham fans “stupid little fuckers ” in fact its our birthright. My old man did the same and my lil heathen children will follow suit.
As you were.
Tierney looks ready to start against Man u, so does Holding and Chambers. We can’t rock up there with the usual clowns at the back. Really impressed with Tierney, especially his crossing, hard to judge his defensive ability against Forest. Chambers had another good game and has to start ahead of AMN until Bellerin is fully fit. Martinelli was seriously impressive, not only the (very well taken, not flukey in the least) goals but his hustle as well. turns out we can play some good football when we take out some of the wasters from the team holding us back,… Read more »
I think as much as we all desperately want to see arsenal back in the CL for obvious reasons, what we’re learning at the start of this season is that if we lost out on CL money again and had to sell a couple of first team players to cover our losses, as a bare minimum we do have an excellent batch of youngsters who if not by this season, by next season will be able to improve us in most areas of the pitch. It’s not like years gone by with the threat of needing to sell our one… Read more »
Pepe saka martinelli Eddie holding tierney bellerin Leno guendouzi willock chambers RN saliba Most of these players can have a big, valuable contribution to improving the team compared with years gone by and the handful who don’t make the grade will probably be sellable for very pleasant fees That’s really damn nice to see as we haven’t had a good team for ages, let alone one where most of the players are very young and with very high ceilings Sadly I’m not convinced emery will pick many of these against utd. It’s going to be the same old crap experienced… Read more »
I see some people saying chambers should be dm. Let’s be real he’d probably do a much better job than xhaka and help guen a lot.
Tho vs utd we’ll likely have AMN starting RB if chambers doesn’t so I think emery will put chambers RB
In a couple of games when belle Tim is ready, I’d play a backline of ——————Leno Bellerin-holding-Luiz-tierney ———chambers-guen —————-ceballos Pepe—————————saka ——————-Auba Give it a try for 45 mins and see how it looks The good thing is that we actually have a lot of versatility in this squad. You can easily swap Luiz and chambers in that setup between CB and DM (which might be a better idea anyway) We also have willock who can swap in for guen or ceballos where desired Up front and wide forward we have several options out of Auba Pepe laca martinelli saka and… Read more »
China1
I’ve see enough of David Luiz to not shoehorn him into any starting 11.
In retrospect, we may have been too harsh on Mustafi. He has his penchant for high profile mistakes but so do Luiz and Sokrates.
I think Mustafi complements Holding better. It will work so long as we have Torriera sitting in from the backline, not Xhaka.
I would play Chambers-Mustafi-Holding-Tierney in the backline till Bellerin is ready.
Either of Mustafi and Chambers can play the Bellerin position half-decently. They can inter-change during the course of the game.
Great win last night. I haven’t watched the game yet: still waiting for a download this morning, so I’ll read the comments later.
It doesn’t absolve Emery of anything in my eyes.
It’s high science how our ‘second team’ plays better than our ‘ first team’.
Emery sure knows how to pick his first eleven for PL matches.
You can’t help but get excited over a 5-0 victory especially when handed up by our young players but let’s not get too carried away, this was not a first team Forest either. Tierney looks better that I thought he would be. If the improvement made in the four days since his u23’s runout is anything to go by the 25 mil paid for his services will prove to be the bargain of the season. “Arsene Wenger elevated Arsenal football club to a higher level than at any time in their history and the fans (WOBS) held him responsible for… Read more »
Love a good league cup thrashing with the kids.
On the screens over here, when Saka was brought on. It showed at first Freddie giving Saka instructions for a period of time, then Emery added something smaller.
I think Emery isn’t this naive. He’s seen enough of a reaction from certain players now to obtain levels from other payers are not cutting it.
Ozil couldn’t even clap when he left the field. He must really hate how he was thrown in with the youngsters and proved how far he’s fallen.
– attitude does that to you.
I think the youth are up for it more. Years gone by, they were hyped too much, crashed out in competitions or failed to make an impact when they should have.
A lot of them know they work hard, they will get chances and can go as far as their performances let them.
Dissenter
All it takes is a league cup tie for Mustafi to sell you another of his upcoming blockbusters.
Charlie Saw your comments late last night. Completely agree with your Allegri then Vieira thinking. Some time ago I read in a broadsheet UK newspaper an argument put forward that a BA gained in the UK adds too much debt for its viability to a student where it takes around 10 years to pay off the student debts. The argument was asking if a BA today was really worth the debt and pain and misery vs. what real opportunities it affords the student. It went on to illuminate the ways employers did far more penetrating background checks on potential candidates,… Read more »
apologies for the repeated post
Charlie, with our time differences I think you may have missed a lengthy post i made re training and health matters you ask questions about.
If this is the case let me know and I’ll repost at a quieter time as I think you’ll find the data collecting info both unusual and possibly interesting.
I don’t want to clog up the blog more than I have this morning.
Last season the Maitland-Niles and Mustafi combination on right side of defence was considered disastrous and the same has occurred with AMN and Sokratis this season. In the two Cup Games where Chambers played alongside Mustafi the team have not conceded a goal and look far more solid defensively. I have made the case many times this season and last that AMN lacks the defensive quality and positional sense to be RB and that despite his shortcomings Chambers would be in absence of Bellerin to be a better option. My view is that Mustafi might prove to better option alongside… Read more »

Mustafi is a big NO in the epl, play him in cup competitions to keep his value then sell in the summer as well as papasaucrisis,
only Torr is a DM, luiz chambers are not but could work in a system as part of 3CBs

Sorry for it, the internet…. nature of the beast.
Really enjoyable match last night even though got soaked
No real opposition of course but great all the same to see so many youngsters excel
Interesting that despite being still a teenager Guendouzi is already a senior player and therefore completely bypasses this tournament
Really strikes me watching Martinelli last night that if we can continue each year to find just one teenage gem at the £6m mark as with Guen and GM we would be able to take on the big budget teams very successfully. Holding also represents that strategy as a £3m signing a couple of years ago
Haha receding seems like we have quite a few parallels in a sense then Ironically tho I didn’t know what to study at uni because I’m interested in almost everything but don’t have an individual passion for too many specific subjects – so I decided town planning would be a good choice as it leads to a specific career if you’re not sure what you want to do after uni and at least if I did want to change I’d have a degree in something I was actually already in a classroom in China with a class full of 3… Read more »
