Jonas Posted November 2 Share Posted November 2 (edited) My only regret is it wasn't a hugely controversial winning goal to discombobulate them some more, but I sooth that with the thought that a clean left hook win on top of that hugely controversial winning goal last season will be as sickening.

Big Geordie Posted November 2 Share Posted November 2 Both Hall and Tino putting in terrific performances - reminiscent of Andy Griffin shutting down Ginola, back in the day. Good lads Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We tactically out shone them in every department, you can use graphs and XG to make your point, but anyone watching that game knows Arsenal didn't deserved shit.

They probably score more times than not from the chance Rice got at the end. That doesn't preclude saying that we defended well across the game.

Pata Posted November 2 Share Posted November 2 I have no doubt we could’ve created more xG if it was needed. Dropped back a bit in the second half and it was as comfortable as it has ever been. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBG Posted November 2 Share Posted November 2 Flapped at some corners, but did Pope even have to make a save? There was the block by Hall but other than that I can't remember them going closer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've regressed I feel and now rely on late winners and percentage football. Big sam would be proud. I can’t believe they haven’t forked out the money for an elite striker. Havertz and Trossard are good players, but they aren’t prolific goal scorers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen another XG model record the Rice chance as 0.59, which would be a goal more times than not from that position. Looked that way too. Don't know why everyone is making such a deal about it though. You can defend well, feel like you deserve the win and enjoy it whilst being able to see that across the 90 both teams only had 1 good chance Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Okay, I'll add to the discussion. Our problem this year is scoring goals against low block sides. We don't learn a great deal about that from beating Chelsea's cup team nor today. We got two great wins which we can all enjoy, but we still need to see an improvement with the ball in the upcoming games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We dropped down a bit after taking the lead and Arsenal had no idea what to do outside set pieces and that one cross to Rice. Very much a match where eye test>xG or stats as they had no idea how to break us down. 0.59 for that header seems way too high in any case. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some great performances all across the park from us. The two fullbacks were excellent. They don't half miss Odegaard. He's by far and away their star man.
