    Overall a very good performance. I feel like all the ingredients are there, it’s just getting the right amount of each to achieve that perfection Arteta is dreaming of.

    Was only able to watch the replay last night.

    • I see Lalana is still a dirty, cheating bastard.
    • And the refs are still as inconsistently shite as ever. So flagrantly hacking down Saka repeatedly is fine, but a bit of a tug on a shirt is unacceptable.
    • Big Gabi was immense. He had Ferguson in his pocket for the 90+ mins. I know Saliba got a lot of praise, and yes he did very well. But I thought Big Gabi was even better.
    • Saka was also immense, and unlucky not to have scored. Even with them double-manning him he was still causing them a lot of problems on the wing. How he repeatedly exploited pockets between their fullback and centreback, and ghosting around Milner was fantastic.
    • Speaking of Milner, how the fuck is he still being played as a fullback in the PL at 37? Saka was rinsing him for fun. I can maybe see him still having a role for a smaller club, but surely more in a defensive mid position, where’s his ability to read the game works well but he’s not facing skillful speed merchants all the time.
    • Ode was very good in build-up play and recycling the ball, but his shooting was off.
    • Eddie’s positioning is very good, as ever. And I’m impressed with his burgeoning ability to find teammates with very good passes.
    • Good to see Gabi J is finding his confidence and showing his skills more again.
    • Rice, holy shit what a player we have! I never cease to be amazed by how well-rounded he is.
    • “Sixty million down the drain, Kai Havertz scores again!” He’s getting a little better every match he plays. Love to see it.

    If only there was a way to avoid AFTV’s upload spam on YouTube.

        How do I block it on the Android app? I don’t think there’s a way to do that.

          I thought you could just do it from the channel, but looks like you need to see a video in your recommendation feed and then select “don’t show anything from this channel” from the menu next to it
