This Lyanco guy has been throwing his elbows around all game, punched Jesus in the back, now headbutted Nketiah and tried to grab his neck.... How is he not sent off

This ref has been trying his hardest to help Soton

Pretty sure I heard at the start of the match the ref hadn't worked a Southampton loss...

Arteta is trying to be too clever playing Tomiyasu on the right instead of being pragmatic, he should go ask Pep how that works in the CL. Tomiyasu offers nothing going forward on the right which makes Martinelli ineffective as well.

I agree though. It was a "tactical" decision against Salah, but now it feels like something else. If Tierney isn't doing enough to start at LB then tell him that. Don't tell a player its a "tactical" decision and there's nothing he did wrong.

It might be time to forget about the title with Haaland breathing down our necks

I hate tottenham as much as the next Arsenal fan, and I hope they lose, but that looked like a foul.

Not yet, its still mathematically possible. But my safety net is that I was moreso looking for top 4. But I hope this helps the board see they need to touch up the squad a bit in January

Jesse Marsch is done.

Leeds can't finish or defend.

He's partially at fault but their defenders and strikers are awful.

Plus I love Aaronson but he's no Raphinha replacement

They play through lightning? I didn't know that. Even the NFL will stop a game for lightning... Another reason why I hate baseball (or maybe just the MLB). Cant even play in a light drizzle

Newcastle sliced through that right side of Tottenham like a hot knife through butter.

 

[Premeditated]

I haven't been following Bruno Guimaraes and Newcastle like that since the transfers.

anyone know how he's been? He was one of Lyon's best midfielder and was shocked bigger teams didn't go for him. same as their other midfielders, really.

and what kind of football do they play usually? more possession and system or are they a counter attack team? if it's the latter, I don't see them getting into top 4. Like West Ham and Leicester the last 2 seasons.

By all accounts he's been very good, and they usually try to press teams.
