RuffRob Posted February 5, 2023 Report Share Posted February 5, 2023 15 hours ago, StevO said: It’s almost like we were the better team, against the best team in the country. Madness!!! That bar has been set pretty high now. Might be all down hill from here!. There was definately more crosses going in the box yesterday or attempted crosses that resulted in corners. Simplicity in the corners. Just keep putting the ball the the back post, we have the tall players, so not a great deal Arsenal can do about it. I don't thing we played for or won half enough corners under Lampard and hence we did score many. StevO 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fosse Captain Posted February 5, 2023 Report Share Posted February 5, 2023 We got the ball in attacking areas and were always looking to get it in the box. We made the Arsenal defenders have to defend. That brought corners, which creates pressure. I thought we were fantastic all game. Simple and structured. 4-5-1. Hard work, passion and desire. Probably deserved to win by a coupe of goals. MikeO, Romey 1878 and Wiggytop 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gwlad Posted February 5, 2023 Report Share Posted February 5, 2023 Dom should have had two and Onana and Doucs one a piece - would have helped GD. I'll settle for 1-0 though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THIS IS NOT A FUCKING DRILL! He is right though. Arsenal played well, they were trying to do the things that they do week in week out and we stopped them and managed to impose ourselves on them instead. It is one game, so lets see what happens in the weeks that come but that was as good as I have seen from us for a long time! Btay 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The next performance is crucial or the one before doesn’t matter. If we can find that level of performance against Arsenal consistently, we will be okay.

It is one game, so lets see what happens in the weeks that come but that was as good as I have seen from us for a long time! I agree with tempering our excitement. We are entitled to enjoy the win. God knows we've waited long enough but these players have not shown me anything that suggests they can be consistent - the talent is clearly there with some of them and maybe a new Manager can unlock consistency but we need to pull the reigns a bit on players like McNeil - yes it was much better but show me again and then again and I'll start to believe it was the prior managers fault and not the players application. That said, I'd rather be writing that on the back of 3 glorious points than bemoaning another shambolic effort.

Popular Post RuffRob Posted February 7, 2023 Popular Post Report Share Posted February 7, 2023 What will really decide our fate this season is upping the performance and results in all the games we are expected to win or take something from. We have dropped the ball in some 6pointers already, and this is the reason we are in the position we are in. Playing Liverpool away will look after itself. They are still massive favorites, so could take the wind out of our sales. Leeds at home in just over 10 days time is a big game. They are likely to have that new manager feel when they come.
