Great result 🤩 just what we needed. So happy for Martinelli to bounce back from the penalty miss. 10 games to go no other distractions. Let's keep going.

Glad our Gabriels and White gonna have a break now too.

Kel Varnsen

I hope Saliba is back soon, because Holding makes it hard to play with a high line.

goon

Kel Varnsen defo in the long run but we dealt with it well today. Let Holding go in aggressively where he did very well and get White and Gabriel to cover in behind if he loses or we lose the second ball.

We’re playing some lovely football. Great combinations. Making things look simple

HomeSteak reading this back on the way home from the game, which one were you watching??

Clrnc

RocktheCasbah He posted that in the first 15mins or something when Palace hit the post and was dangerous on the counter. Was a fair comment

HomeSteak

RocktheCasbah i'm very dramatic bro

invisibleman18

Awesome performance and great to hear the Vieira chant. Expected a scrappy tough game after the Europa exploits. Fingers crossed we can get through the international break without losing anyone else.

KingslandBarge

invisibleman18 That was a lovely touch and definitely an instance that made me admire our fanbase. If Paddy wasn't streaming it like us, hope its at least picked up on MOTD.

RocktheCasbah

HomeSteak funny, I've just remembered that after that Palace chance, I turned to Al and said, we've had the ball for ten minutes, they've had a shot on goal..

For me, Martinelli, Ødegaard and, yes, Rob Holding were excellent. Ødegaard in particular is such a joy to watch. Unbelievable that we got him for £30m.

Perfect tonic off the back of Thursday night, great atmosphere in the ground and topped off by the half time interviews with George Graham, Pat Rice, Frank McLintock and Bob Wilson. A day for heroes.

IBL only Odegaard is his equal.

Clrnc

goon as long as he's not marking a diver like Kane or Son it's fine. If he's marking Haaland or Salah it will end in disaster too

invisibleman18

It was absolutely vital to increase the points gap before Man City next play. I've always preferred points on the board to theoretical or assumed points that haven't been won yet, so this can only put more pressure on them.

goon

Clrnc yeah he loves his personal battles. Costa, Mane, Son, Haaland, even Zaha yesterday in the second half. Some of those were more successful than others...

Qwiss

So people are gonna bash on Holding even when he has an excellent game then.

Bring Back Kerrea Gilbert

Qwiss yeah Rob was good.

JazzG

Very good win, started a bit nervy and if that Zaha attempt had gone in could have been a very uncomfortable afternoon. Once we scored though it was one way traffic for the rest of the game. Annoying we didn't keep a clean sheet and concede from a set piece again!

Really good way to go into the international break with the win.

Qwiss Excellent is probably pushing it, had a decent game though. His passing was very good, got caught a couple times defensively. Has an annoying habit of getting too tight sometimes,

RocktheCasbah

I should have given Ben White a shout out really. Not only has he just played 4 hours+ in a week, he was proper excellent yesterday. His passing into Saka was sensational - and his fighting spirit summed up when he lamped the ball into the Clock End and celebrated like he'd scored. Annoying that Palace then scored from the resulting corner.. 😂

Caught this lovely moment after Saka's first goal too.

Claudius

RocktheCasbah Ben White was imperious yesterday. Really love this guy. He’s the face of the type of modern footballer Arteta wants on his team. Athletic, great skill, smart, high work rate. Just comes together. The pass for Saka was a peach

Gurgen

RocktheCasbah That was actually quite stupid as he didn't need to boot it out for a corner at all. But yeah, in general he was excellent.

I am Arsenal Till I Die

RocktheCasbah Caught this lovely moment after Saka's first goal too.

Is that Block 25/26? I don't know how you tolerate the drum for 90 mins. I usually sit Clock end upper and even that far away the drums get intolerable after a point.

Bring Back Kerrea Gilbert

White was excellent. He looked super focused and his passing was sublime.
