Way too emotionally invested in Arsenal and Arsenal Women

There will be other games 😎 World class finish
Feel for Eze but Mikel did the right thing. Eze couldn't get in the game and it wasn't really his fault, not the day for him. There was no space in the middle and he was getting forced back and losing the ball. There will be other games and he'll look great
if only there was a sample of, say, 5 seasons of Arsenal being one of the best teams in Europe. Then maybe our coach wouldn't have to defend his team for *checks notes*... winning a match away at Forest.
Arsenal’s burden, which is seemingly heavier than most other teams’, is that we have to win the *right* way. We either please them or our manager has to “defend” why we didn’t make them happy. This burden is assigned to us by the media - but also by a chunk of our own supporters. It is absurd.
Konsa and Rice massive in getting us this result. That's proper effective recruitment, buying players who get you results on the pitch (Although Konsa did play Delap onside, but his performance was great regardless)
This is a team that knows how to win. We played poorly today really, but still found a way. It's effective, but not pretty. Got away with a couple at the end, the Murillo chance was huge, and Konsa's brilliant defending denied Delap. Madueke made a difference at HT - worked hard for his goal 👍
