Match Day Thread Tottenham Hotspur vs Arsenal - Matchday Thread

I seriously can not believe we are 3-0 up considering how ****e we have been, sloppy, slow at times and rarely getting the 2nd balls. But hey ho! Maybe Lady Luck is on our side for once! The really good thing is we can not play the 2nd half as badly as the first. COYG!! and Come on Nottingham Forest!

 

We haven't played that well offensively. I think thats why Arteta was looking annoyed most the half.

But our defence is a joke.

Ben White just seems to be getting better and better.

 

Oof, almost 4-0. Tomiyasu just couldn't keep that header down.

 

What a save from Vicario to prevent Saka getting a 2nd.

 

Ok, this has been a much better second half display we're also creating all the chances.

 

Maddison is such a twat, isn't he?

 

1-3. They're back in it. What is Raya doing there? Ffs.

 

That's such a **** mistake under no pressure from Raya. What the hell man.

 

Football is a funny old game. We didn't play that great in the first half, yet had 3 goals. We've played much better second half, yet have no goals and have conceded.

 

Don't want to jinx it, but we've managed the game superbly since conceding. We've defended well and still creating plenty in transition and on the break. We're winning a lot of duels and seconds balls in the middle too.

 

Penalty to Spurs. ****. Rice with a poor mistake.

 

Son makes it 2. This is going to be a horrible end to the game.

 

Gary Neville pissed me off today

Anyone notice how he went silent at EVERY Arsenal chance or goal?

But screamed in delight when Spurs scored. What a biased ****

 

Happy with that.

Am not bothered it wasn't our best performance. Toughest of our remaining games done.

Just need a City slip up.

 

2-3. FT.

Thank GOD for that. It should never have been that nervy or close, and we gifted them a way back into the game, but at this stage of the season and - especially in a north london derby - all that matters is the W, no matter how we get it.

Huge, huge win. Maintain a 4 point gap on the top of the table and north London is still red. Onto Bournemouth now.

COYG

 

Crazy game in the end that !

Should have put the game to bed at 0-3 but an absolute gift got them back in it.

Love the fact that we've beat them on their own ground, secured St Totts day, put ourselves further ahead at the top and dented their top 4 chances

 

First time we've beat Spurs away back-to-back since 1988 under George Graham apparently.

 

Do you know how annoying it would be that we have every metric in our favour of being the best team in the league, yet we still may not win it? Ah, pain.

 

Not every metric. You have lost more games than both Liverpool and City.

 

Remind me of Spurs 2017/18

best home record, best this best that, won most games in calendar year blah blah blah

won **** all in the end
