Yeah that second half was absolutely arsenal shitting themselves for no reason. First half they looked a lot more likely to score than us. The first game was relatively equal

If arteta gets his head together and doesn't shit himself, they're stronger than us

Now and on paper yes. However maybe Arsenal's style suits us. They are probably playing as well as they can at present whereas it's clear we have a LOT more in the tank.

We're becoming difficult to beat and the new players are settling in well. The established players were awful early season but especially Macca and Konate are looking more like their old selves.

My main concern is injuries in key positions. The squad looks very thin in some positions. However we are definitely improving.

Not sure. I don't think Arteta likes playing us and they couldnt score a goal over 180 mins in the leauge and we bossed them at the Emirates in that second half without a striker.

Us playing without a striker is why we bossed them as we outnumbered them in midfield.

Slot will have to decide if we do the same again if we face them again
 
Bookies have Arsenal and BM as clear favourites (4/1 and 9/2).

Then come 5 teams between 8/1 and 12/1 (us). Big gap then to Chelsea at 20/1.

Seems about right even if Arse are overvalued at those odds.
 
I think it’s 50-50 against Arsenal, City, Chelsea and Newcastle.

Would prefer to avoid a PL team

Not sure I agree given how we set up yesterday. Ekitike could have come in and played off the left for example.
 
I think we need a CB in the window to be able to truly say 'It's on' because I just don't see us getting to May without one of Virgil or Ibu getting injured

Is Leoni back this season? If so that may be enough for the club to keep the gunpowder dry.
