Damn that was good. 19 games down, 50pts in the bank, yellow card suspensions wiped, and ManU put back in their place.

Arteta gets a bit of stick for his substitutions occasionally, but I thought his swap of Tomiyasu for White was inspired.

Partey and Martinelli were a bit loose with possession, particularly in the first half. Xhaka was great, love his new role. Incredibly happy for Nketiah. And Trossard's cameo at the end augurs well.

Zinchenko was my MOTM. What a signing. Didn't know he'd be this good for us.

Love this club. COYG!!
 
it was an even 1st half but the much better side in the 2nd. i thought this game would be a draw but that late winner was so good.
thought a lot of our players were off with their passing, lots of turnovers.

still taking it 1 game at a time, theres plenty of games to go and ive seen teams in the past cough up leads.

glad Nketiah scored a few

Lovely watching that, very enjoyable to sit through that replay.

- One of those matches where I'm glad I knew the result beforehand, the nervy last few minutes would've got me.

- Comprehensive performance from Arsenal. We played them off the park, much like we did in patches at OT. Deserved win.

- Possibly White's worst game for Arsenal so far, wise move to sub him out. Not much we could with Rashford's quality opener. Aside from that, we really controlled the game and Tomiyasu on helped that. They didn't really create much else and Ramsdale should have done better no doubt in coming out for that ball.

- Eddie Nketiah. Is there a better "number 2/back up" striker in the PL? So happy again for him. The disrespect he cops is ridiculous. Everything from the shit he received to that contract on 100k a week to then him sitting there and listening to people write Arsenal's downfall when Jesus was injured. He bided is time, waiting for his chance having been at the club since he was 14. An academy graduate, those 3-4 weeks waiting for the restart after Jesus' injury so he can show what he can do, when so many wrote the bloke off. Its ****ing brilliant. Get around the bloke. Hope that finally shuts up the doubt about him

- If Arsenal was an orchestra, Zinchenko would be the conductor. Seriously, I had no ****ing idea how good he was when signing from City. He's everywhere. He controls the tempo. And he's a leader too. Look at how much responsibility he takes and he is constantly vocal, not just in the huddles etc but through many stages of the match. Fast becoming as integral to Arsenal's system as Partey is.

- Saka. ****ing hell. He's 21. I really forget that sometimes. 21 years old. Look what he's achieved already for club and country. If Antony and Mudryk are 100m euro players, Saka is what, 200m? He's ridiculously good.

- Trossard was very handy coming off the bench. Martinelli looked gassed as the front 3 often do at that stage of the match, given their work rate and so on. Kiwior was in the director's box. The club is strenghtening the squad and is looking to do more, great stuff.

- The scenes at full time. This was great.



- Wherever this ends, I don't know. I defintley believe though, the title challenge is on like donkey kong. Can we get there? Again, I don't know. And for now, I actually don't really mind. What's clearly evident is that Arsenal are back. What we are creating is special. Very special. And it is ****ing glorious.
 
Echoing glenferry23 Last night was the first time I really truly appreciated Zinchenko. I knew he was good and how important he was but he was truly sensational last night. Absolute barometer for our team.

And Saka. I kind of felt he would tail off this season but he’s gone to another level. How is he this good at such a young age? I mean our front three at the moment is ridiculously young and the chemistry is electric.

I had zinchenko as man of the match, though a few others could easily have it too

What a great victory, we really probably only need to draw with city both matches or one win one loss and we are looking really good for the title

Nketiah has filled the void perfectly as well, deserves a lot of credit

What a crazy season it has been
