Aubameyang scores and saves his good pal Arteta’s job!

 

Great run from Saka in the build-up. Beat three players to create that space.

 

Lol Arsenal down to ten men again.

 

Holgate! What a relief.

 

Watching Newcastle try and chase a game is hilarious.

 

Big Sam has already taken over at WBA.

 

That was coming. Complete domination so far

Mourinho's slightly changed his setup from what he's mainly been doing this season and he's isolated Son and Kane by doing so. Bergwijn and Sissoko are so deep, they can't release the pressure.

 

Sigh

 

SONNYYYYYY

 

Son got megged moments ago then he responds with that.

 

That goal is so damn frustrating

 

Lol good thing I'm on a delay

 

Outstanding performance for 32 minutes and then we switch off.

 

Bayern is playing Wolfsburg right now and Lewy just scored his second goal within 5 minutes...

 

How many more does he need to break Gerd Muller's record?

 

Hugo is so good

 

25 more to get to the same number.

 

First 32 minutes were how we wanted that to go. Created chances, played some outstanding football and didn't let Spurs take the sting out of it or counter attack. As well as we've played all season given the situation and the opponent.

Quandary for Klopp here. Want to regain the speed and intensity of the attack but cannot allow Spurs to counter attack. It's possible we end up with a repeat of the Chelsea/Spurs stalemate from the other week, where Chelsea sacrificed a little bit in attack in order to kill the potential of the sucker punch.

 

Not a good start.

 

He really does have a penchant for scoring goals against Wolfsburg and in quick succession. I was just looking up that match in 2015 to check how quickly he scored those five coming off the bench.

 

Haller with an absolute text-book bicycle kick against Palace. Wow.

 

Spurs should be leading. From the moment the second half started this didn't feel right. Rhys Williams is starting to get exposed.

 

it's gonna be so wild when Hugo eventually retires/leaves

team has been centered around him for so long and he's so, so crucial

 

I’m glad I was wrong about wanting to sell him a couple years ago. He had a rough patch during that time but he is back to being an elite keeper.
