Amazing game
Before the game, I said I’d be a bit pissed off if we decided to turn up for this one just because it’s a big game at home. Well, we didn’t turn up and we were shocking for the first 30 minutes. I thought all hope was lost. But we came back from adversity, were the opposite of flakes, and battered Arsenal for an hour. We deserved to win. Just cut out the lazy defending and we could pick up a lot more points.
Gakpo was very good at retaining the ball. Mo didn’t have a great game but kept trying, and his ball to Nunez was filth.
Thiago was very good when he came on and reminded me just how good he can be. Henderson put in an energetic performance. I thought Fab looked quite good.
Konate was an absolute monster at the back. He can become the ultimate front foot defender. He was my MOTM. I’m very proud of the team. It’s disappointing that we were so poor early on but it took real courage to come back and batter Arsenal like we did. We still have IT. We very well could go back to being disappointing in the next game, but deep down we still have quality and desire. Let’s just get some fresh faces in and go again next year. It would be nice if we showed this desire each week though.
