Positives:

Ramsdale - Good distribution, comes and collects when under pressure.

Tomiyasu seems solid so far. Runs hard and doesn't shirk his responsibilities.

Gabriel. Not sure where we'd be without him in the last 2 games, especially with White seemingly playing like he was picked up on the way from a local park game on the way to the stadium.

Negatives:

Pepe. Waste of space. No redeeming feature. Can't take a corner, can't beat his man, dallies on the ball when in decent shooting positions, lazy in tracking back and has no eye for a killer pass. I know he gets shit from some, but Zaha would be ten times the player in this Arsenal team if we'd brought him instead.

Saka. Needs a few games on the bench.

Ben White. Nowhere near quality at the moment. Willing to give some more time though.

Artetas in game management and subs. Not sure how Pepe or Saka lasted the full game, and even though ESR trudged off he would have still had more impact than the 2 mentioned in the remainder of the game.

But a win against those knuckle draggers is always satisfying, especially seeing Dych moaning about the non-penalty being overturned :lol:

Gabriel is MOM, did work of 2 defenders as White gave the impression that defending is beneath him. I don't know what it is with White, he was a solid defender at Brighton, but is looking almost disinterested in defending.

I wasn't convinced by Ramsdale when we signed him but I am quietly encouraged by him now. He is everything that Leno isn't - brave, confident in coming out for crosses, calm in posession with a wonderful passing range. Love the passion he shows as well. Hope this is the beginning of the end for Leno as no. 1.

All three subs were because of knocks or pulls . Otherwise I reckon Pepe would have gone for Lacazette and Saka needs a rest .He is getting over played and looking stale

Absolutely delighted we won...fucking great

These i am afraid are the new expectations...Burnley...Norwich

We are a million miles from challenging for the title and wont get in the top 4

just pleased we won today

Ramsdale looks good but first time i seen him.....White jury still out, but some doubts already....Tomi looks decent

Odergaard has real quality...but easily passed by and tends to drift through games

Saka has really dipped in form....must be those scum fans clapping him...what the fuck was all that about?

If Xaha and Leno had played we would have lost today...simple as that

If Leno was playing today, that would have been a nailed on pen. He wouldn't have got anywhere near the ball.
