Said after they worked their backsides off, in an albeit horrid game of football, to get the point they fought so hard for at Chelsea, that was the platform for the ‘Big 9’ push to top 4 …..
4 games into the Big 9, thats 3 wins and a draw. Which should have been 4 wins from 4 if we’d have got what our dominance deserved against Arsenal.
It’s to our detriment as to just how grim this season has been, that three ‘firsts’ this season happened tonight-
5 games unbeaten in a row.
3 consecutive wins in the league.
2 straight wins away in the league.
Superb, dominant away display again. Bar a slow start to the second half, that was a three-quarter game of attack against defence. Three superb goals. (The West Ham opener, completely against the run of play, was a belter web. ). Similarly super long range finish from Gakpo. Who just continues to get better and better the more comfortable he gets with us. Real top draw technical footballer there in that effortlessly elegant Dutch style. Really pleasing to see another quick response to a set back ala Sat’day. And a brilliant headed winner from Matip who came in from the cold with a great display. Adding to our dominance both ends the air tonight.
The counter-press high set the tone for everything. (Never understand anyone who complains about our high line when it underpins all our success/ style. ). Utterly dominant, controlling display.
Keep on telling us we’ve no chance of CL. We’ll keep throwing that right back at you as they have proved over and over these past 7 years under Jurgen.
6 points. Roll on Tottenham.
UTR! FTT!!!!!
