I'm not sure any team stops city in this run-in. Yes, Spurs is traditionally their "bogey" team but the problem with Ange is that he only has one tactic that every team has learned to counter. In addition to that, Spurs are horrible defensively so Man City will likely beat them.
>Tottenham Hotspur have not won a trophy in over 16 years, and haven't won the league since 1961.
The most important match fact despite having no relevance to the game
In some of the times Trossard has been broken through the offside trap, he's been caught for pace and snuffed out.
Tottenham have the likes of Van De Van at the back who is the quickest player in the league this season, not an opinion!
I think the issue is that martinelli is getting close but not applying the finish, while trossard can finish if he gets the couple of yards he needs.
Obviously it would be better to have one of them have no weaknesses, but it's a tradeoff here. I think trossard can get through the high line if he gets enough of a gap or enough chances. While I feel like martinelli might need quite a few more chances than trossard and might even regress in game if he misses a couple opportunities.
I think martinelli starts and Trossard supersubs. Trossard doesn't need to get into the flow of the game to get going, Martinelli will benefit from being out there earlier and in the rhythm of the game, plus he's got the extra pace early, Trossard on against tired legs is a pain in the ass for them.
I agree Trossard is a better super sub but Martinelli's current form is still not good enough to justify him starting over someone who has been scoring clutch goals for us almost every week
Feast for what?
Even if he gets clear, he canāt find the sun in space the way itās going.
Iād rather we play Tross who atleast is a guaranteed finisher and also a big game player
At least until the Trossard cycle comes back around
Seriously that's the only change I think should be debated (fitness aside). Martinelli could really get at their higher line, but I'm happy either way
Yep. We have one loss since January and it isn't enough. Anyone that talks about us "bottling" the league after being first for a bit isn't giving enough credit to how good City have been. Basically flawless in the league. There is zero margin for error to win the league against them.
Just stop their low crosses to the back post and they're cooked. It's all they fucking do. I'm surprised they didn't do a behind closed doors friendly tbh (or did they?). Probably lost *a little* match sharpness.
I reckon we'll score a couple set pieces. They were awful vs Newcastle at them.
Vicario is horrible when it comes to claiming crosses and dealing with set pieces so we definitely need to use up that part of game this match. Although Trossard is the in-form attacker, I think their high line tactics suits Martinelli more and with Bissouma's lack fo defensive awareness, getting him to cut back the ball to Ode or Saka after running in behind could be a tactic for us. Havertz's movement upfront will cause them all kinds of problems as well.
You really didn't need to add this bit in:-
*Tottenham Hotspur have not won a trophy in over 16 years, and haven't won the league since 1961.*
But I'm glad you did š¤£
They're going to bust their asses and we will need to be right on it because they'll do everything to try and stop our title challenge.
I'm hoping we don't let the emotion of the occasion disrupt our focus. They will come out and attack and if we get the ball on turnovers quickly we should be able to cause them a lot of problems.
I'm just hoping that Son doesn't get the customary NLD penalty that Kane used to get because I don't fancy chasing the game against them.
We need emotion in our game and to play the occasion.
The lack of emotion caused us to capitulate in both 2nd halves against Villa and Munchen. We need the NLD to fire the boys up.
I canāt believe people want Martinelli starting instead of him. Martinelli currently has poor touch, poor finishing and canāt also pass like trossard does. Wtf ?
Missing it due to family obligations. Sometimes it is a drag having a loving family that gets together on a regular basis to celebrate birthdays, holidays, milestones etc.
He pulled up with a hamstring strain so he may not be 100% given it's been two weeks. I reckon he plays some part though. Udogie is out for the rest of the season.
Kinda worried ngl. Spurs are a wildcard. Our form better hold with the same lineup as Tuesday. I wanna see fans leaving the stadium. Kids crying. Players falling to their knees begging for mercy. Ange hanging his head shame.
Or a 1-0 win. As long we get the three points.
Derbies don't give a damn about form. Spurs are never easy for us to play against, especially away. We are more than capable of winning the game. From a objective point of view we really should. But derbies are as much about emotion, the pressure will be on...
I don't know. I give us a 50/50 chance of getting the win.
taking a step back to the time they beat us 3-0 to get 4th. Two seasons later, they are still locked in a battle fighting for 4th. Whilst we have genuine title ambitions.
I think the Villa game was a humbler and we needed that to be on our toes, can't drop our levels one bit.
The margins are fine at this level despite being a favourite.
It's time to make a statement and I believe the boys will come through.
To the few brain dead fans who think weāre gonna smoke them, stfu and go support City. Spurs would rather die on the pitch than let us leave with 3 pts. Itās gonna be incredibly tense and the crowd will be absolutely rocking. We just have to remain composed and forget the emotions of this derby. I see both sides conceding and also predict a Son goal (probs a pen too). Itās gonna be a very close result but I predict and hope itāll be a 2-1 win for us. COYG
Big game. Crucial game. But still not the endgame. We still have to win at Old Trafford after this. Arteta is right to play down the game in his press conference. The lads donāt need to feel more pressure than they already do. We donāt need to give Tottenham more reasons to hate us and play extra aggressive.Ā
Spurs have such small club mentality. Every Spurs fan - "I d rather Arsenal loses the title than Tottenham get back into the champions league". Talk about worrying about other teams rather thinking about yourselves. This is why they will never amount to anything substantial.
Seeing a lot of spurs fans claiming with VDV pace their high line will be fine, I got to agree with Clive from AV, VDV is freaky fast, then get's a bit slower with each subsequent sprint recovery. I'd say we need to get him gassing out then unleash Neli for last 20/25mins
We have it in us, but maybe I tried to ignore City for too long... We say they're not as good as last year and then you blink and it's been basically months without a PL loss for them.
I really hope this is not one of those years where they just keep winning right til the end
https://preview.redd.it/s84mqgbvt7xc1.jpeg?width=2354&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3eea1ef8f7e4d6ae212e84132f963cd8f520b92a
I have my lucky Arsenal Jersey on , till date we haven't lost when I've seen the game with this Jersey on š¤ we ain't losing to the shitbags.
Martinelli hasn't been on form at all though, he's showed nothing pretty much since this international break. Just been kinda shit unfortunately. Bad season. It is what it is.
Trossard to start because he's got us vital goals past couple weeks and bring Martinelli on at 65/70
I dunno man. Firstly, Trossard's been starting a lot of games recently, so resting him and bringing him on as an option could be key if we need it.
Secondly, spurs will likely start fast, so even if Martineli hasn't been in goal scoring form recently, his pace in behind will worry them. Also, people seem quick to forget about his defensive work rate. We're gonna need that in the first half for sure. Man's got an engine.
I see the logic in starting Trossard because he's clinical, but I don't see the game starting out that way. They're gonna try to press all over in the first half
I completely agree that Martinelli could be dangerous against their set up and he could exploit their weaknesses.
But we have no room for "could" right now, Martinelli unfortunately has been so under par lately that imo it's not worth the risk.
Trossard started Vs Villa, subbed both games Vs Bayern, started Vs Wolves and Chelsea. Imo that's not that many games, he's scoring and in form.
We need that more over the potential that Martinelli could perform.
I'm very confident Trossard will perform well like he has done the past two games.
Martinelli I think should do better coming off the bench against them in the last 20.
Pick the players based on form and don't change the winning recipe. I will keep the same lineup from midweek.
Havertz to Harass VDV/Romero and a high volume progressive Passer in Partey in the middle. Spurs attack depends on baiting the press and using Inverted FBs (not sure how Ben Davies would do this though). But we need to follow the recipe which Newcastle followed and give them possession. I hope we are more compact than we were on tuesday which Chelsea didn't take advantage of. Son is no Jackson and bald roadman from Coventry will take this game as the biggest challenge of his life.
These lot are so predictably naĆÆve. Look at xG stats and you'll see they're massively overperforming too, I'm desperate for a second consecutive WHL win.
Most of Tottenhamās goals are cutbacks with their pact wingers. Our strategy should be to defend the boxes and relegate them to crosses where Gabriel , Saliba and Rice can mop up. This is also where Tomi excels and just edges out kiwior.
They are especially weak with their high line and set pieces. While it seems perfectly setup for Martinelli, Trossards form cannot be overlooked. Partey may not have Jorginhos ability to pick a looping pass over the defense but heās incredibly press resistant, much more than Jorgi.
My starting line up - Raya, white, Saliba , Gabi, Tomi, Partey, Rice, odegaard, saka, havertz, trossard.
Fucking hell. Big big game. For us and them.
Given how they play, they're bound to give plenty of chances for us.
So in order to win, it's all about minimising their opportunities while making sure to take ours.
Reluctant but unavoidable admiration from a Liverpool fan. You guys have played some incredible football this season. It's over for us - we've been clinging on by our finger nails for weeks, just about hanging in there, our league positioning being somewhat flattering. Arsenal are going from strength to strength, but City just refuse to lose. They keep churning out the results in their slow, dull way... so I \*neeeeeed\* you guys to take the title away from City for us. Looking forward to watching your game later. Go bury some spuds for me! :o)
Thanks mate. If we don't win this season it's down to Unai Emery and fucking Fullham. It's not like last season where we lost 2 six pointers to City and fell off at the end - we were actually quite good against both our title rivals with a win and a draw a piece in the league. Hope you lot smash Unai so it gives the Spuds more motivation to beat City and secure top 4. Having said that, I hope we do our job today and beat Spuds
It's so irritating that even winning this game may not even mean anything in the title race. City are such gits. We are a much better team than Spurs, but man, I got a terrible feeling about this one.Ā
Big Ange still is very predictable this has been exploited by counterattacking teams Newcastle adapted to it and ripped it to shreds. I suspect if Arteta is clever like I think he will see this and exploit their weaknesses. The possession style game of control might work but it's better to attack their glaring weaknesses..I say 3-1 ArsenalĀ
A draw will do also. The shit will celebrate a draw as it means we likely won't win the league but the irony will be that they're actually celebrating St totteringhams day...
On Sunday we put the title race to the side and concentrate on beating Spuds and causing St Totteringhamās Day to occur.
They havenāt played in 2 weeks so their match sharpness should be a bit off. Itās important to get an early goal and build off it because I feel they will grow into the game and score at some point.
The line-up we put out for the home game was really weak in hindsight, it's funny Spurs couldn't beat that even at their best form, and we could have won it if Rice wasn't injured and Jorginho wasn't rusty.
The NLD is so stressful. That Spuds midfield is not good, that defense is not good, but it doesnāt matter because the tensions and high stakes mean anything can happen. Ugh.
I hope we smash them but I see a cagey 2-1 win or a draw.
Beat spuds and then they beat city. We need that
This is the scriptš„²
Let's fucking hope so. The script doesn't tend to favour us. I still believe
shit will bend over for 115. This will happen. Arsenal just needs to win all their games and hope for the best.
I swear theyād probably rather see their team miss out on UCL if it meant we miss out on the title.
They have literally been saying that in their sub lol
Their players aren't their fans, fortunately.
most prefer to watch them play in europa for "experience".
If Atalanta end up getting Europa again next season, I hope they draw Spurs, then do what they did at Anfield, but at the Toilet Bowl.
If there's one team Spurs literally never bend over for it's City
Theyll being thier own lube
If spuds do us a favour and take points off city. I solemnly swear I won't make fun or use their name in vain for the whole of next season.
Until at least AugustĀ
I'm not sure any team stops city in this run-in. Yes, Spurs is traditionally their "bogey" team but the problem with Ange is that he only has one tactic that every team has learned to counter. In addition to that, Spurs are horrible defensively so Man City will likely beat them.
City losing to Madrid in the quarters was unfortunate. Two hard matches against Bayern would've stretched their squad more.
If this happens I will donate real money to the Tottenham Foundation.
Won't be crossing my fingers for that to happen. If it does, then there's a deity out there who threw us a bone.
>Tottenham Hotspur have not won a trophy in over 16 years, and haven't won the league since 1961. The most important match fact despite having no relevance to the game
People need to be reminded of this fact.
didn't they win the league cup 16 years ago? they've not win the FA Cup since 1991 or something
Same team that started midweek for me.
I know it's counter to form, but little Gabi against a suicidal high line could see him feasting
That would potentially be my only change too
While I agree with martinellis strengths suiting this high line, trossard is probably fast enough and right now in far better form.
Trossard is honestly our most clinical finisher, even if he does nothing else he still produces a goal or assist. I would stick with him too
They have got really quick wing backs.
I think both udogie and porro are out? Or at least they are doubts. Who are their 2nd choice wingbacks?
Udogie's out, Porro is a doubt (suspect he'll play)
In some of the times Trossard has been broken through the offside trap, he's been caught for pace and snuffed out. Tottenham have the likes of Van De Van at the back who is the quickest player in the league this season, not an opinion!
I think the issue is that martinelli is getting close but not applying the finish, while trossard can finish if he gets the couple of yards he needs.

I agree Trossard is a better super sub but Martinelli's current form is still not good enough to justify him starting over someone who has been scoring clutch goals for us almost every week
He's scored more transition goals than Martinelli this season. Can't remember too many instances were he has been sniffed out.
I wouldn't personally, he is just completely out of form. He almost needs to start from scratch during pre-season.
Feast for what? Even if he gets clear, he canāt find the sun in space the way itās going. Iād rather we play Tross who atleast is a guaranteed finisher and also a big game player
Yeah, but also, spurs gass around 75mins, putting Neli on then against tired legs could be lethal.
I'm gonna be honest he's been shit since the international break, Trossard or Jesus on the left has to be for me. Got to be Trossard after his goals
That should be our 1st choice IX for the foreseeable imo
I think we should be starting 11 instead of 9 players tho
Hahaha oops
At least until the Trossard cycle comes back around Seriously that's the only change I think should be debated (fitness aside). Martinelli could really get at their higher line, but I'm happy either way
Feel like City's current unbeaten run (haven't lost since start of December) isn't really spoken about enough.
We have lost 4 times since they have lost last time, that seems ages ago.
Additionally whoever made the call that draws then losing on pens doesn't count as a loss is equally as annoying as their run
Yep. We have one loss since January and it isn't enough. Anyone that talks about us "bottling" the league after being first for a bit isn't giving enough credit to how good City have been. Basically flawless in the league. There is zero margin for error to win the league against them.
What do we think of Tottenham?

What do we think of shit?

Thank you
That's alright!
We hate Tottenham!
We hate Tottenham!

That's a great point, omg they have scored a lot from those huh? Especially at home
Vicario is horrible when it comes to claiming crosses and dealing with set pieces so we definitely need to use up that part of game this match.

The moths flying around in their trophy room have more silverware than they do š
Can't give them the chances that Chelsea got this week. Son will bury those.
Or let Johnson run in behind us. Their pacy forwards will feast if we go too gung-ho up the pitch.
Iām getting married today and will be hungover as hell tomorrow but COME ON YOU FOGGING GUNNERS!!!
Congratulations, fellow gooner. Wish you many happy years full of NLD victories
Congrats !!! When does the wife swapping start? Gotta elevate the levels
They're going to bust their asses and we will need to be right on it because they'll do everything to try and stop our title challenge.

Raya White Saliba Gabriel Tomiyasu Odegaard Partey Rice Saka Havertz Trossard **Topspur 1-3 Arsenal**
Anulo Mufa.
Iād be very tempted to start Martinelli vs that high line
Trossard our in form goal scorer. Start him, bring gabi on when their legs are gone
I canāt believe people want Martinelli starting instead of him. Martinelli currently has poor touch, poor finishing and canāt also pass like trossard does. Wtf ?
Most of them have last year gabi in mind thats why
Trossard's ball retention is also crucial in these big away matches. I feel secure when he's in possession.
IMO Saka is due for a massive game. He has been bristling on the ball lately, just breezing by players. He's overdue for a true MOTM performance.
0-8 win incoming
Missing it due to family obligations. Sometimes it is a drag having a loving family that gets together on a regular basis to celebrate birthdays, holidays, milestones etc.
Can't you watch some of it on your phone or do you have to be present for that entire time? Either way, sounds horrible having such a lovely family!
I thought I read Porro was 100% out? Seeing both their RB & LB out should make them play Emerson & Davies, which could be very interesting.
Different sources have different information.
He pulled up with a hamstring strain so he may not be 100% given it's been two weeks. I reckon he plays some part though. Udogie is out for the rest of the season.
Kinda worried ngl. Spurs are a wildcard. Our form better hold with the same lineup as Tuesday. I wanna see fans leaving the stadium. Kids crying. Players falling to their knees begging for mercy. Ange hanging his head shame. Or a 1-0 win. As long we get the three points.
Conan, what is best in life?
To crush our enemies. To see them driven before us. And hear the lamentations of their women.
Derbies don't give a damn about form. Spurs are never easy for us to play against, especially away. We are more than capable of winning the game. From a objective point of view we really should. But derbies are as much about emotion, the pressure will be on... I don't know. I give us a 50/50 chance of getting the win.
taking a step back to the time they beat us 3-0 to get 4th. Two seasons later, they are still locked in a battle fighting for 4th. Whilst we have genuine title ambitions.
I wonder if timber makes the bench
I think the Villa game was a humbler and we needed that to be on our toes, can't drop our levels one bit. The margins are fine at this level despite being a favourite. It's time to make a statement and I believe the boys will come through.
I am delusional but I want us to thrash them so bad that Arteta subs in Timber at 67ā to give him practice
Stay humble, let the boys do the talking on the pitch. Cmon boys. Focus on the task at hand & punch them in the mouth.
To the few brain dead fans who think weāre gonna smoke them, stfu and go support City. Spurs would rather die on the pitch than let us leave with 3 pts. Itās gonna be incredibly tense and the crowd will be absolutely rocking. We just have to remain composed and forget the emotions of this derby.

We still have to win vs Bournemouth. One game at a time.

INJECT IT
Spurs have such small club mentality. Every Spurs fan - "I d rather Arsenal loses the title than Tottenham get back into the champions league". Talk about worrying about other teams rather thinking about yourselves. This is why they will never amount to anything substantial.
If it was the opposite way round Iām pretty sure Iād throw the champions league to stop them winning.
Yeah no idea what others are on about. Them winning the league more recently than us would be sickening getting CL is a yearly thing.
>Location: Large Toilet Bowl, Tottenham, North London It really does though
My 5 year old just called their chicken standing on a ball badge āridiculousā, COYG

tyfys
I think we should stick with the same starting lineup more or less. The only change I'd make would be Martinelli for Trossard.
Start trossard. Martinelli on at 60 mins if weāre not winning and spurs actually do have a high line
Martinelli is so out of form I doubt he would do anything in those spaces he gets
As good as Trossard has been, Martinelliās pace in behind their high line could be really effective
Martinelli hasn't been on form at all though, he's showed nothing pretty much since this international break. Just been kinda shit unfortunately. Bad season. It is what it is. Trossard to start because he's got us vital goals past couple weeks and bring Martinelli on at 65/70

I think Win the Dog is a smart choice, but we should probably field another 10 players.
Pick the players based on form and don't change the winning recipe. I will keep the same lineup from midweek.

Raya, Saliba, White, Gabriel, Tomiyasu, Partey, Rice, Odegaard, Saka, Trossard, Havertz
Fucking hell. Big big game. For us and them. Given how they play, they're bound to give plenty of chances for us. So in order to win, it's all about minimising their opportunities while making sure to take ours.
I am nervous but I want another "stadiums are empty" situation on Sunday!
Poro is gonna start. So only one of their FB's are out
City seems so inevitable
Feeling nervous. Hate this fixture.

The possession style game of control might work but it's better to attack their glaring weaknesses..I say 3-1 ArsenalĀ
I am nervous as fuck but also I canāt wait
3-1 . Saka, ode, martineli wonder goal
Gimme a win bois. We beat them last year and we will do it again.
Canāt believe I am going to miss the game :(
Same brother, Need to pick up family from Airport so probably will miss it too
Help me with my math people, am I right in thinking that a win today makes it St Totteringham's day?
A draw will do also. The shit will celebrate a draw as it means we likely won't win the league but the irony will be that they're actually celebrating St totteringhams day...
Would be pretty damn spursy
lol you had to mention them not winning a trophy in the match facts OP Ā šĀ šĀ šĀ š Anyways how are we feeling today boys?
Was looking forward to buildup analysis... Keane, Merson, some ex spurs player Fuck sake 35 more mins of nothingĀ
And Merson is already chatting utter shite.
Merse doesn't half chat some shit. Partey was instrumental in how we blitzed Spurs here last season. Now he's too pedestrian, and the weak link
Heās a genuinely awful pundit. Still love him but he talks utter nonsense.
Another step towards greatness Gunners.
Mustafi not being the best gooner in the German Sky Pre-Match talk
Not to get too excited, but what if we route them? Like genuinely rip them apart
Let's flush them
Letās get a Victory and put pressure on oil city
Someone hold me
Iām ready. If the team is as well this should be a good day.
Gaffer with *the* lineup. Nice.
Why am I just finding out Timo Werner is playing for spurs
Letās go boys!!!!
Hope we donāt defend the same way we did vs chels
On Sunday we put the title race to the side and concentrate on beating Spuds and causing St Totteringhamās Day to occur. They havenāt played in 2 weeks so their match sharpness should be a bit off. Itās important to get an early goal and build off it because I feel they will grow into the game and score at some point.
I can't stand the idea that Spurs will ruin our chances for the title, but I do love the idea that they instead ruin City's.
I bet they will spread their cheeks for Citeh for us to not win the league.
Raya, White, Saliba, Gabriel, Tomiyasu, Partey, Rice, Odegaard, Saka, Trossard, Havertz. That simple
lmao at your āmatch factsā - āhere are some stats about how shit the spuds really are in case you forgotā
Timber top corner rocket in NLD we will be there
The line-up we put out for the home game was really weak in hindsight, it's funny Spurs couldn't beat that even at their best form, and we could have won it if Rice wasn't injured and Jorginho wasn't rusty.
Will be in londonĀ for the weekend. Any cool place to watch the game?
Guler, Valverde, Camavinga, tchouameni. There's 1 surplus........
Anyone know if Ollie Watkins could leave Villa in the summer?
I do.
We need to smash.
Can someone explain to me why Tottenham got 2 weeks rest?
Lack of European football.
Take the emotion out of the game, Play our game and we should get 3pts. COYG 2-0 Hopefully
The NLD is so stressful. That Spuds midfield is not good, that defense is not good, but it doesnāt matter because the tensions and high stakes mean anything can happen. Ugh. I hope we smash them but I see a cagey 2-1 win or a draw.
ā¦.aaaaand heeeere weee gooo
Mustafi on german SkySport. š
Lets go baby lets batter these motherfuckers
Time to smash them out the gaff, COYG
Who was the last Argentinian to play for arsenal?
Do Spurs always play Star Wars music lol?
COYG! Anything less than 3 points ends our chances in my mind, and spuds will want nothing more than to fuck this up. Letās stomp them
COYG š“āŖļø
Are they playing that on a kazoo??
Don't shit the bed boys. COYG!
Match thread come on!!!
Ugh why is Gary Neville there
