I can never hear that term without thinking of Francis Jeffers. Not a good association.

Awesome/brave tackle by Gabriel. Backs to the wall stuff.

Looked the entire side and substitutes were behind the ball when Man Utd were near the box.

Brilliant performance.

Gabriel, Partey, Elneny the standout performers, but they all played very very well.

Well done boys.

Now let’s use this as a springboard.

Great result for us of course, but catastrophic for the OGS project. They had to win this one.

Hard fought and fully deserved. Tactics and performance spot on. No matter than it was ‘only’ won by a penalty and 1-0. We were miles better than Man U today.

Partey and Elneny absolutely bossed the midfield, all the more incredible as Man U played a narrow midfield 4 in a diamond, so it was 4v2 in there. I’ve written Elneny off many times but he proved me wrong tonight, he was everything you want, compliments Partey brilliantly.

Absolutely loved the aggression and physicality in our play all game as well.

Neither did I. Just shows what they’re capable of and that it’s not always down to the manager.

Grit and determination aplenty.

Bellerin made the most of the contact but I'll take it. OGS may not last the season.

Post subject:  Re: Supporters Forum

Partey is blessing. Once we get better team defense, I can envision him being box to box and getting involved on the attack when he sees an opening.

He was superb. He worked his nuts off and added value all over the pitch.

Ceballos and Xhaka will struggle to get back into the fold if that continues. That was a multi dimensional midfield performance that we haven’t seen in some time.

Great result obviously but particularly as it solidifies belief in Arteta's methods. Defensively we look unrecognisable from the Emery era. If only Lacazette could get back to being a real goal threat or we get goals from elsewhere in the team.

Post subject:  Re: Supporters Forum

One guy who never gets enough credit is Rob Holding. He’s not a world class centre half like Gabriel but the truth is he rarely drops a clanger and always provides maximum effort especially in these big games. For a back up centre half he’s not as bad as many try to make out.

He played very well. I was hoping that he wouldn’t have to go off due to injury. A solid game indeed.

Reminds me a bit of Steve Bould, both in appearance and performance.

There was a moment in the 91st minute, we are camped in our box and Man U are slinging desperate balls in and Elneny chases down Man U on their right wing, the recycle it centrally and out to the Left where Elneny sprints all the way across, holds up Shaw, forces him backwards to Lindelof and then forces the mistake from him to win is a throw on halfway and run down the clock. Unbelievable

Lacazette’s press, closing down, tackling and hold up play were so much better today.

Post subject:  Re: Supporters Forum

Arteta said about players winning their individual battles today, absolutely right. It felt like every Arsenal player had the better of their direct opponent today, for a long time it was just the goal that was missing.

Post subject:  Re: Supporters Forum

On paper that is the 3 toughest Games of the season out of the way already. And another tough one v Leicester at home when you consider their threat on the counter. Shame that we lost 3 of them but the good is the league is pretty bunched up so whilst our position is low we’re only 4 points off the top

Indeed. It's a little known fact that "feckers" is a term of affection in a certain region of East Cork. :icon_razz:

Great win for us today. First half was considerably better than the second half, but the work rate throughout was excellent.

That was the performance I have been waiting for. Partey and Elneny were great but acrosss the team good performances and a mention for Bellerin. I think Bellerin, Holding and Elneny are improving significantly. We need to see desire and use of a football brain in every game from now on.

Defense seems to be sorted.
Midfield is moving in the right direction.
Attack next on the agenda?

As others have said, credit to Holding and Elneny today. They both played well. Gabriel is the star man in central defence though. Been so impressed with him.
