London. The qualities of Gabriel Jesus, defender of Thomas Partey, playing William Saliba is a mature defensive player.
There is a lot that distinguishes Arsenal’s young, feisty team that fell to Tottenham in the Emirates.
Granit Xhaka’s recovery is perhaps the main story.
interruptions in Premier League It was so many that Saturday’s first game could be mistaken for the first game of the season. Expectations were rising in north London on this wonderful day of autumn, a derby as both groups of fans raised their hopes.
In case anyone missed the opening seven rounds, the first half in the Emirates has been a carbon copy of the clubs’ efforts so far. Arsenal, led by Gabriel Jesus, wanted to make the decision and did so with strong pressure and strong pressure. With full-backs Ben White and Oleksandr Zentenko in the middle of the field, Granit Xhaka was released and broke the lines by running into the area at the right post of goalkeeper Hugo Lloris.
Incredible end of the party
White and Zentenko held those positions as Spurs were ready to play cards from Lloris. It disrupted the opponents’ building phase so much that they set up camp in their half of their court with a five line of defense. Antonio Conte’s men rarely controlled the ball, but they gave Thomas Partey surprising space outside the penalty area.
Spurs may have underestimated the Ghanaian from a distance. His stunning finish twenty minutes later, in which he sat behind Loris, must have been a shock.
There were spaces available for Spurs to use on the flanks and despite Dejan Kulusevsky’s injury, there was plenty of offensive potential to exploit. Richarlison’s penalty kick after just over half an hour was preceded by a solo performance by Son Heung-min as Arsenal’s central lock slipped reluctantly, at which point Gabriel illegally climbed onto the brass. Harry Kane scored his 100th away goal in the league by taking the penalty kick in the middle of the goal.
In defense of Emerson Royal…
Despite the fact that Arsenal was more convincing in terms of play, the match still stands and influences this situation. It’s annoying to repeat, but Gabriel Jesus’ importance to Mikela Arteta’s gang is immense and I felt admittedly he appeared behind central defender Christian Romero and pounced 2-1 after just four minutes in the second half. Spurs immediately put themselves in a difficult situation that only got worse.
When Emerson Royal stupidly entered with the buttons on Gabriel Martinelli, Conte appeared to collapse on the touchline. Finally, referee Anthony Taylor put up the red card, to the sound of jubilant home fans celebrating as if they had already won the match.
If Emerson was hired in defence, Virgil van Dijk was responsible for a similar intervention on Amadou Onana in Liverpool’s encounter with Everton, but he remained on the pitch. Regardless, onlookers were right that the ruling was devastating for Spurs.
Fantastic trip
Xhaka, who was tirelessly cutting lines, slashed away from the opponent’s defense to turn 3-1, a result that has stood the test of time. I chose to land a little here, with the Swiss. Recently in 2019, we sat in The Emirates and watched Xhaka throw his captain’s armband out onto the lawn to a huge boo. It’s a fantastic journey the midfielder has undertaken under Arteta, in large part due to the freer role he has been assigned to recently.
If anyone was still suspicious of Arsenal, they must have been silenced by now. Many also shy away from talking about Arteta’s men as title contenders, things change very quickly in football and it’s easy to stand a stupid face when things start to go wrong. But in any case, this team has – without a doubt – shown the highest level so far with Manchester City.
When autumn leaves fall, winter passes and these teams meet again near the edge of spring, it will be exciting to see the exact scale of today’s victory. Given how tight last season there was, there could be a lot more to celebrate for Arsenal fans than just three points against their worst opponent. Although of course it’s not fun either.
