Arsenal 5 - 2 Tottenham Hotspur: Arsenal punish Spurs' poor tactics

MJGunner wrote:After their 2 goals we had the game by the scruff of the game and completely controlled the tempo of the game. We were by far the better team in every facet of the game and we earned this result thoroughly, we could have even grabbed quite a few more goals.

Great great match. My favorite this season.

What a result, though. I've seen the highlights, and Jesus, take a bow everybody!

Code:

Sell Bale in the summer. This is not Knee Jerk reaction, he is obviously too big time for Spurs. He is not playing for the team right now, ruining our shape (whether it is his agent, himself, believing it, is irrelevant). We should get what we can for him.

hell-shocked? Brought down to earth? Well, this was a wake-up call for us all, wasn't it? And we all thought we were "miles ahead of the Gooners!"

Not only were we thrashed but we were second best at everything. They tackled better, passed the ball better, attacked far better and had a better team spirit. When we had the ball we always looked like we were going to lose it. When they had the ball they always looked like they were going to score.

I hate to say this, BUT YOU'VE GOT TO HAND IT TO THEM. I mean, Wenger and the whole team were under considerable pressure to put in "a performance" and they came up trumps, didn't they?

Have we got any excuses? Were there any key players missing from our side? Er, actually, NO!

Fancy playing them at Wembley next year when they've got Wilshere back?

The sad fact is that our two goals were incredibly lucky and theirs were brilliant. I like Ade, but he had a nightmare game, whereas Van Persie was absolutely brilliant.
Come to think of it, did ANYONE in our side play well? Did we actually put ONE decent move together?

Ah, well, let's move on. We've got Man U next (without Parker) and we need to bounce back quickly. I wonder if we will, after a dreadful performance like that?

This looked like the OLD TOTTENHAM to me.

We may still end up above Arsenal and grab a CL place but we're still in their shadow, that's for sure.

Time for me to get drunk!!!

Nah, the big brother just put his squirt kid brother in his place today.

I was generally pleased with what Redknapp said and found him very agreeable and respectable. lol can't honestly say Wenger would have reacted the same way had we lost in a similar manner. He would have said
"Well uhhh the ref....the pitch...*insert injured player* is missing....there was a dog barking very loudly..."

Harry leave now. All you keep banging on about is england 24/7. Even before the NLD youve said you want to take your colleuges with you, before a NLD. Great one.
