He has worked hard for the team today. But his finishing and link up play has again been dreadful.

That's why you call a smash and grab.

Fair play lads, it wasn't pretty, but it's a great result.

Great finish by Luis, hope that gets his confidence back, I thought the substitutions were very smart.

how dafuq did that happen ??

Konate played well tonight.

Also thought Connor Bradley and Bobby Clark did well when they came on.

But Arsenal lost this with their dreadful finishing. They could have been out of sight by half time.

Shut up Bungle  Rowed our luck in the first half. Second half was a very a different game. Trent very unlucky not to score but made up for it with a fantastic ball that resulted in an own goal. Lots of good stuff from Diaz and a great goal at the end. Nunez causing chaos as usual but he continues to frustrate. Konate and Quansah both impressed.

Great result especially with so many players not available.

Classic smash and grab 

Hope that breaks their spirit.

We struggled hard first half but we were the better side second half. Diaz can definitely play RW.. he has become too predictable cutting in from the LW, so it mixes our attacks up him hitting the byline from the right. Konate was exceptional again like he was vs the league game vs Arsenal.

Smash and grab.. but we'll take it and we've got rid of a big threat to the competition aswell.

These losers are not title contenders at all. I'd still rather have Arsenal win the prem than City, if we don't, but they're not challenging for sure. They're playing at home, we're missing 3 or 4 of our best players, we're basically there for the taking at least in the first half and they still manage to lose by two goals without even scoring one lmao.

Anyway, I disagree with some who say we were awful. Not the better team I agree but we had every reason not to be. Still managed to steal the victory (nice not to be on the reiciving end for a change) and some players played a really good game to be honest. Considering we were away from home at the Emirates and we were missing our best players basically, that performance was more or less expected.

Gomez and Konate were superb.  Bradley likewise put in some crucial tackles in a short appearance.

Still catching my breath a bit here . A great game with both teams going at it "Hammer and Tongs" !

Thought we were lucky to go in at half time at just 0-0 but thankfully the team stepped up for the second half   

In Jurgen we trust

I think Arteta is walking a tightrope.

He's spent a lot of money but they seem to have gone backwards. I mean, why the hell did they sign Havertz? He flopped at the Chavs and now he's flopping again.

A few more bad results and Arsenal could be facing a fight to stay in the top 4.
