Loved that celebration from Aubameyang with the grass slide and glare.
Very reminiscent of Thierry's celebration but I couldn't remember who it was against......
It was also against Spurs!! In 2002.
Wasnt it that mazy run from one half to the other and the slide rule finish?
Great seeing Thierry in the crowd wearing his vintage shirt. Didn't realise that was Daniel Ek sat with him.
Great great win and performance.
Bit nervy at 3 1and Kane went close a couple of times but we thoroughly deserved that.
Actually this was last game before another bloody international break but no Brighton next week.
Let's go again!

On way back from game sitting very happily in pub.
Interestingly to see real connection being forged between team and fans. Very early days but feels bit like early GG days.
Long May it continue.

Does anyone still think we overpaid for Ramsdale and White ? Both terrific today only bettered by Gabriel and Tomiyasu who literally wins everything so many 50 50s and knockdowns. The guys been our man of the match in both our last 2 home games and looks an absolute snip at 19m.

You can see partnerships and trust forming in the team. The defenders know they can pass it back to their keeper now because they trust him, the midfielders know the can swing a high ball at Tomiyasu because he wins them. Trust and understanding is developing.

Only suggestion I would have made is that I felt maybe Lacazette for Aubameyang around the 70th minute would have made sense to me and that we still don’t seem to have realised that by the 60th minute of most games Emile Smith Rowe has totally burnt himself out with his work rate.

Kaveh Solhekol the sky sports transfer guy is taking pelters from arsenal fans on social media. He was the guy who was giggling about us signing Tomiyasu and claimed he had inside info that Tomiyasu had been offered to every single prem club and not a single one was interested. I would wager there is no chance this bloke had ever seen Tomiyasu play

On MOTD2 last night, Keown said this was only the twelfth game Arteta’s teams have played in front of a full house. Nothing about the explanation for that, if it’s true, being the behind closed doors policy. Even the games last season when some fans were let in had a restricted capacity.

Noticeable after the game yesterday how every post match interview sang the praises of the fans. Feels like there may have been a directive for what to be saying in post match interviews even though players generally thank the fans quite often.
Arteta clearly trying to get everyone on board and pulling in the same direction. Wins like yesterday help a lot

The team looked balanced yesterday. You can’t fit Pépé Emile Smith Rowe Saka and Ødegaard all on to the field at the same time IMO. That’s not to say they can’t be rotated.

This is a very valuable point to highlight.

The behind doors games appeared to be essentially high intensity training sessions where pretty much anything can happen.

Confidence plays a massive part in football as confidence enables creativity and expression and the players seeing that they have a stadium full of fans cheering them on like yesterday can only help especially for a team like ours with so many young players. Without that they are essentially listening to the media and social media to gauge people’s opinions on their performances and that is not good.

As the players came out Ramsdale and others were clapping the supporters. I think there are so many likeable players in the side, as a supporter you are prepared to cut them a lot of slack.

Ashburton Grove has never been the forgress Highbury was. Last night could have been because its an NLD but if we can get anywhere close to that atmosphere on a regular basis, it's worth several points over the course of a season.

Some pretty damning stats for Spurs after yesterday's game.
They rank 18th for goals scored, 19th for shots, 18th for shots conceded, 19th for expected goals and 20th for distance covered.

I really enjoyed Aubameyang's performance leading the line. If we can get him at those sorts of levels for just 3/4 games this season we'll have a good season

We're playing games now with what has to be described as our best 11, and in reality most of those 11 positions are clear now. What we need to do now is:
1. ensure that 11 stays as fit as possible and get them playing to that level as often as possible
2. not alienate the support cast
3. work out a way the players outside of that 11 can slot in and be equally effective

When I look through the squad and what Arteta wants from each player in each position there does seem to be quite some drop off in quality. I'd argue that Lokonga could come in to central midfield, Pépé could come in and Lacazette could play the central striker and things shouldn't drop off to much.
