Shockingly so though I did say their defence looks shaky a while back - that’s why I am shocked they are letting Akanji go ..

They lose nearly every time Rico Lewis is in defence

He made so many ( typical for him ) mistakes today and made about 15 fouls today without getting booked !

What questions do you think she asked there that a male wouldn't ask

Personally I hate this Americanisation...is that a word of half time talks with Managers, its needs to be binned asap

You can tell that neither Frank or the Presenter like doing these half time interviews.

Wow

I predicted top 6 for Spurs but after the first two games and that performance against PSG I’m thinking top 3 , 4 or 5 !!


Great back four defence

Superb midfield three of Bentancur , Palhinha and Sarr

Up front Kudus is nailed on but the other two forward positions can easily be improved in the last week of the transfer window

The keeper is a good shot stopper but gives me the eegiebeegees when he has the ball at his feet

at this stage, if you don't like women commentators then simply don't watch or mute the audio. End of

Blimey Arsenal were arguably the best footballing team in the premier league last season even with Odegard not performing


Now Odegard has pressure on his position I expect him to have a brilliant season then add these three special players they could/should be untouchable !!

Eberechi Eze

Ethan Nwaneri

Max Dowman

Good day results-wise for two of my three favourite English teams . .. Spurs and Arsenal with Liverpool playing on Monday


Spurs were fantastic and will hopefully add two or three quality players before the deadline .


Arsenal weren’t looking too good UNTIL Odegard and then Saka were substituted !!

Madueke got lucky with Saka’s hamstring going so the new guy will be able to play in his preferred right wing position ..

Nwaneri looked far more effective than Odegard …

The two injuries leave space for Eze to make his debut against Liverpool

Wasn’t at all impressed with Gyökeres or Madueke but after a poor start Zubimendi started to look really at home

Arsenal were playing one of the easiest teams in the league yesterday. Noo conclusions can be drawn from that game other than they have injury prone players

… and excellent players in reserve - possibly better than the accepted starters ?
