Celebration Penalty

action

5.0

"We score and Grey kicks it into the net in celebration: Yellow They score and Trossard does the same: not a yellow. They push and climb all over Muani like 10 times in the first half: no foul Muani barely touches Gabriel and he dives to the ground: disallow a goal." reddit

"Got to hand it to Tudor. Letting them score the goal to let them feel the elation of thinking they’ll win the title, then snatching it away by having Kolo Muani (of all people) score against them 🤭 Destroying their spirit." reddit

"Ah yes, Tudor deliberately made Rice fumble the ball for RKM so he could score, definitely. Not to take away from RKM not being able to score under Frank for 8 months but it's far fetched to give credit to Tudor for that." reddit
Poor Attacking Play

action

4.4

"Xavi has been poor. I understand it's not easy to play with basically one other attacker but you need to at least get some attacking momentum going and keep the ball in their third better. Still, Sarr has probably been the worst on the pitch, very unconvincing defensively and invisible in the rare moments we get the ball. Radu MOTM so far despite a couple of shaky moments. Overally, we've improved over the last 20 mins but still way too…" reddit

"Dragusin is horrible. Horrible play. Horrible positioning. Horrible effort. Most of the match and in every way that play to give up a goal." reddit

"I swear half of this sub has never touched a ball. "Xavi should have passed that" WHERE? HOW?! Is it at all possible? Yes. Is there any viable, reasonably doable option in that moment? No. He was isolated with two hail Mary options available who were both also covered by defenders, with defenders between and on Xavi as well. We didn't push up, they retreated and got everyone shutting the attack down. That's a situation most players will lose the…" reddit

Midfield Steam Loss

"We were gonna lose steam later in the game in the midfield 'cause we didn't have enough players. We showed heart and 2-2 it's a different game, sadly the ref killed the game with bad calls. We won't get relegated playing like we did with Cuti eventually back. Players coming back from injury. Losing this game sucks but what can you do with no new signings in Jan to cover. Still losing to the gooners again is too painful" reddit
Biased Refereeing

foul

0.1

"Can't believe how shockingly biased the refereeing is every time we've played these cunts since Ange's first game. How has Gabriel twice got away with fouling Kolo Muani when he would have been through? Not only that, but the ref actually gave the free kick to the animal. Not to mention the pathetic free kicks given to Saka, the fouling on Vicario at every single corner and the shoves in the back every time we go to head the ball." reddit

Long Ball Tactic

action

"Instead of playing through midfield everyone is chucking the ball long to Gyokeres which has not worked. We should move forward how we usually do, but instead of spinning around and passing to the back 3 when we get to midfield, the ball needs to move forward as directly as possible" reddit

"Odegaard for Eze is the smart move, not the emotional move. Odegaard is much better at pressing. But I didn’t want a second hat trick" reddit

"4 goals at their house, Gyokeres was fucking immense, aside from two bangers, linked up so well when people actually run off him?! Happy he got 90 mins because you see even in the last 15 mins what an outlet he is when the game was stretched. We always lose that when Jesus comes on. Shout out Hincapie and also Mosquera, so reliable" reddit
Substitution Strategy

statistics

6.4

"Arteta wants Zubi and Rice to die. I don’t think he understands if he brings on Norgaard ad Odegaard at the same time, it gives us TWO pressing machines that can also control in midfield. Take Hincapie off to rest him, give Nelli some minutes. Because you can’t depend on these players when they don’t get enough minutes. As a result Gabi and Saliba will now need to continue to defend." reddit

"Yet more uneccessary minutes on the legs of Rice and Zubi. Nørgaard deserves more minutes off the bench." reddit
Powerful Shot Attempt

action

5.8

"Gyokeres has thundercunt of a shot in him everyday, but lacks the skill to do it... Tottenham's defense just did what almost noone does in PL, give him space to have a shot like that." reddit

"That was awful defending by Spurs to let Eze have a free shot like that, someone, *anyone*, had to throw themselves at him to try and block the shot, but someone Arsenal's defending for the equaliser was even worse. Fuck knows what Declan Rice was trying or who he thought he was in that moment, but it was a woeful giveaway and Kolo Muani getting a shot off and scoring from that position is shocking defending by Arsenal." reddit

"I guess, but from seasons past we saw what he could provide in those positions. This year hasn’t been that year. When he’d cut in on the right and take a shot, he was unbeatable. Now, almost any defender seems to have him pocketed, especially in the box. I need the Saka back that could take his man on, get in the box, and curl a shot into the far post again, not the cross and run down the wing…" reddit

How these roles work

Blamed (Causer)

Fans named this player as the direct cause of a negative outcome. Examples: "Maguire gave away the penalty", "Ten Hag's formation cost us". Scores are amplified when the causer is blamed clearly.

Sympathy (Victim)

This player was on the receiving end of something — a foul, a bad decision, being dropped, or let down by teammates. Fans feel for them rather than against them.

Credit (Beneficiary)

Fans gave this player clear credit for a positive outcome — a goal, an assist, a key moment. Includes players who enabled something good to happen. This is the co-winner of a match moment.

🟨 Yellow Card · Jurriën Timber · 27' · ARS 5 reactions

"Timber: "Oh, shit. I fucked up. Better get a yellow too""

"Timber actually gets a yellow for one of those, it’s a miracle "

"So Timber gets a yellow card for stopping a promising attack, but Spence doesn’t for the same thing. OK."

"So stupid from Timber. Tries to make a pass that's never on and picks up a booking trying to recover the ball. I hate the fact that this team is coached to take more risks in our half than in the final third."

"I better see White at some point this game. No way Timber should play 90 after this yellow"

⚽ Goal · Eberechi Eze · 32' · ARS 5 reactions

"Eze only scores against Spurs. I can live with this"

⚽ Goal · Randal Kolo Muani · 34' · TOT 5 reactions

"I don’t care I blame this on the ref, killed all the momentum for us, was never a freekick on Kolo Muani he was free on goal But also we’re so bad at defending in the box"

"how do you concede a goal to kolo muani of all people"

"Ok Muani! I was down on you but you did it boy!!"

"Got to hand it to Tudor. Letting them score the goal to let them feel the elation of thinking they’ll win the title, then snatching it away by having Kolo Muani (of all people) score against them 🤭 Destroying their spirit."

"Wtf? Charity FC at it again. This is Muani's first PL goal, ffs."

🟨 Yellow Card · Archie Gray · 35' · TOT 5 reactions

🔄 Substitution · Cristhian Mosquera · 57' · ARS 5 reactions

"How many times is Gabriel going to do this nonsense? Can we put Mosquera in for him if he’s not scoring goals"

"I can understand Timber coming off, I can not understand Mosquera over White. Injury possibility maybe? But yeah..."

"Timber is on a yellow. Mosquera must be coming in for him"

"Holy shit is Arteta actually using a new formation or Mosquera at RB?"

"WOW an actual chance that was needed. Even if Mosquera scores an own goal it’s good process it’s a good change. Timber is on his last legs"

⚽ Goal · Eberechi Eze · 61' · ARS 5 reactions

"Eze has scored 5 goals againts Spurs LOLLLL"

🔄 Substitution · Dominic Solanke · 62' · TOT 5 reactions

"Richarlison and Solanke on at the same time? Well I never…"

"Van De Ven and Solanke are the only men on that pitch I trust"

"Given how their CB needed to flipping dive when the ball got vaguely close to RKM, I’m interested to see how him having a strike partner in Solanke works out"

"Solanke in his DM era. Proper Kane arc."

🔄 Substitution · Richarlison · 68' · TOT 5 reactions

"Richarlison will score a spectacular goal and pick a fight with someone to end up losing again."

"It would be delusional to hope for a comeback from this atrocious Spurs team."

"Why take off Eze instead of Zubimendi wtf"

🔄 Substitution · Mathys Tel · 82' · TOT 5 reactions

"Oh bloody hell you ain't wrong. He was pretty much completely frozen out at that point a la Reguilon so didn't even register as a potential option in my head."

"Not even remotely the same, they barely even play football at this point, everything they do is either a dive, or reliant on fouling the opposition."

"Interesting sub to take off Palhinha and get Tel. Liking subs from Tudor so far. Can’t blame this game on him."

"So the shock of not one intelligent person, it in fact was not the coach who was the problem"

"Palhinha has been our best player this season by my god, he was absolutely awful today"

"Being the home side with Spurs only having 35% possession has probably contributed to Arsenal scoring those three goals.😒"

Fan

"One of the most annoying parts of the Gabriel dive is that the cunt pulled that against Newcastle earlier in the season as well and got away with it there too. Pathetic player and refs should be wise to his bullshit by now. Edit: The Newcastle goal was given, which begs the question as to why the one today was not even more."

"We asked for reaction and they delivered. Let's get behind the team. With our support they can do it. Also good man management from Arteta. It's been overdue by over 2 months but you gotta thank him "

34 replies mixed replies more negative Show replies

Good is still a stretch. Mikel still stubborn as f for keeping Rice/Zubi on. Rice was a liability at our 1/3 and Zubi didn’t have the legs to chase and needed Saka to put his body on the line. What does Norgaard have to do to see games out against poor sides like Wolves and Spurs? −

Personally think martinelli should have come on earlier. Trossard was having a stinker, but other than that great.

I had a dream in which Cristian Mosquera scored a headed goal to win us the Champions League final. Anulo mufa. +

Only man management issue was no norgaard for either rice or zubi −

Timber looks genuinely exhausted and it has been going on for weeks now so kudos to Arteta for the change! +

Think he needs to rethink Gabriel as well. Perhaps try Calafiori

It was not good man management. Timber should not have even started. Trossard and Saka should’ve come off earlier (he would’ve left Saka on if not for the ankle). Norgaard should’ve come on for Rice or Zubi. No reason to take Eze off. −

↳ Jesus Christ. Odegaard literally assisted the 4th goal and rice was cleaning shit up until the very end. −

Saka should have been off earlier. And perhaps Zubi

Mosquera had that right side on the clamps when he came on

"Even putting the goals aside think that was Gyokeres best game for us. Ref gave him nothing but he kept running, led the line well and those flicks really created the best chances for us"

33 replies mixed replies more negative Show replies

When he won that ball straight back in the 1st half-- he got that dawg in him +

He was quality today. Some lovely touches and incredibly work rate. If we’re able to help him find space with his body facing the goal, I’m sure he’ll bang in a lot more. It’s just incredibly difficult for him to create this space though. +

Flicks? I didn't see a single hair flick all game

Eze also deserves a lot of credit for going for those flicks. He's often there or there abouts, which is something Ø struggles with +

Yes, best hair flicks, only rivaled by goategaard. I hope he continues this self belief. Rooting for em. Been regretting staying awake late night here past few days as Arsenal drew, but not today. Keep your head in the game Arsenal, please, I beg you 🙏 +

He was great. And we FINALLY started playing him through the middle. Vik and Eze looked good together +

The one thing, regardless of form, he always brings is hustle. He has his flaws and struggles so far this year but he fights every minute he’s out there. Gotta appreciate it. On top of that, his hold up play has improved seemingly each successive week and if we can start getting him more shooting opportunities, like we did today, he can take off. +

I was thinking it was this or Atletico. But I prefer this one

Ref was terrible for both teams today. For everything our defence got away with, Gyok got nothing −

He was brilliant and that first goal was a very unArsenal goal in a good way. +

"Mosquera substitution changed the game IMO. His energy helped pin Spurs in for a good chunk of the 2nd half and keep the pressure on. He was outstanding. Hincapie also so good, his pressing was relen"

24 replies mixed replies more negative Show replies

Arteta should have done that against Wolves too. Timber has looked super tired for a few games now. Give him some rest. −

Mosquera’s got it. Idk what it is but he’s got it. I’d trust him in the lineup anytime we need him to fill in. +

Yep. Mosquera brougth a ton of energy and shut that side down.

Yeah I had my doubts about Mosquera he was phenomenal today. Slightly worried about what’s happened to Timber though. He was never amazing going forward but seems he’s lost his confidence or fitness or something. Used to be our best defender every game previously, now he’s probably the weak link. −

↳ Looks knackered. −

Mosquera looked really comfortable at RB. Really feel like we're spoilt for choice there. +

It was a good sub, but I don't think it changed it the game. We dominated throughout and were never under any extended pressure. And they completely gave up for 15 minutes after the 3-1.

↳ Yeah it could be that his sub was aligned with when Spurs simply ran out of energy. Still, the game seemed to shift after he came on

Think Hincapie good for derby games. Calafiori for low block opponents. But Arteta again is not using his bench.........

↳ You're wrong, the reason you save that last round of subs is in case you get an injury like Saka did. It was perfect game management −

"Is Romero injured or did Tudor bench him to assert dominance?"

21 replies mixed replies more negative Show replies

He's out for 4 games, red card. I wouldn't put it past him to beat the shit out of the captain at Hotspur Way though. Prison rules. −

He's on a three match ban for intentionally smashing into the ankles of an opponent while we're in the middle of a relegation battle. −

↳ baffling there's so-called spurs fans completely oblivious to stuff like this −

↳ Ohhh, just Romero things then. Fuck I don’t feel bad about missing that match then. −

He got a red game or so ago

Banned

He’s suspended for the red card against United

Suspended for a fuckton of games −

he's suspended because of a red card against United scum −

Red card ban −

"Great performance, but I don't like that Gabriel almost coin flipped the game with Kolo Muani disallowed goal."

21 replies mixed replies more positive Show replies

That was pathetic and embarrassing. Arteta should be punishing him for that. If not for an equally pathetic call to uphold it as a foul, he very well could’ve made us drop points today, or could if he does it in another game. −

He does that quite often. Also that cut across the defender he did in the first half - some refs will pull that up. He flirts on the edge of what you can do as a defender sometimes rather than just play the ball.

Spuds fans probably telling their grandchildren the ball was over the line and Gabriel flopped.

Feels like his old bozo gene has awoken again a bit this season, hopefully he can sort it out for the run in

That was a horrible moment, poor judgement from Gabi and we were incredibly lucky to get away with it. Could have been a real sliding doors moment when coupled with the Raya save off the line... −

It was the same thing he did against Woltemeade at Newcastle. Soft call imo especially with how physical he usually is in 50/50s

he's not been that good this season, been at fault for many goals and would've cost us a goal today if it weren't for the ref making a shit decision −

↳ Gabriel is nowhere near as good as Saliba I’m pretty sure the only reason he has received so much praise this season is he scores goals −

Worst part of his game. It’s a really bad habit. Fine margins - he got away with it here but woah that was lucky. Ref clearly made the wrong call. −

Perhaps Arteta has to try Calafiori for Gabriel
