Have to give it to Tottenham. With their North London neighbours single handedly ruining football, Spurs are playing a brand of football that is really entertaining everyone.

Oddly mixed feelings after that. We won the game, and advanced in the title race ... but we didn't do it in a way that pleased Fabian HΓΌrzeler. I keep asking myself if it was worth it.

Trade for Dylan cease and then I’ll be done.

Feels increasingly like the clearest route to the title (and more) is simply having Kai Havertz available during the run in. Doesn’t seem like he’s going to be a 90-minute player at any point this season, but even being able to use him for 20-30 minutes to close out games would be massive.

Imagine you work your fingers to the bone as a ballboy and some idiot comes along and undoes all your hard work. Fuming.

It’s 3 points in one of our hardest remaining fixtures but I can’t say it convinced me that this team’s wobble is done

If Arsenal do win the Premier League this season, they'll need to have the parade in the Cardiac Care unit because that's where everyone will be.

Idk if I can keep doing this

The manager is not responsible for every poor touch and pass in the final third, of which there have been plenty today.

Darren England don’t make it about you challenge

Hopefully fans of rival clubs can take some solace from the fact that we also aren't enjoying a second of this.

This Arsenal team may win this game and the title, but something still *feels* off beyond just normal title-race anxiety.

Go get another goal. We’re one Chelsea corner away from dropped points

I laugh whenever people claim there’s a PGMOL conspiracy when it’s clear as day that they’re all just terrible at their jobs. Sometimes it favors your team, sometimes it favors your rivals, but it’s almost always terrible and wildly inconsistent.

What the hell is Darren England’s problem? Third time he’s stopped a clear Arsenal attack to call a foul β€” just go back and card him later!

First half I thought we played decent, just kept getting the final action wrong. We’ve been dreadful since halftime.

twice in 10 minutes that Darren England has refused to play the clearest of advantages.

I cannot overstate how much I miss Martin Odegaard.

01.03.2026 17:49 πŸ‘ 21 πŸ” 5 πŸ’¬ 1 πŸ“Œ 0

Trossard hasn’t been in good form in ages and I wish we had Odegaard or Kai available to start so we can try Eze on the left again

01.03.2026 17:48 πŸ‘ 0 πŸ” 0 πŸ’¬ 0 πŸ“Œ 0

Trossard not really on it, again. I’d consider moving Eze left and bringing Kai on if he can handle 45

Really disappointed with Eze’s performance in the final third; he’s gotten himself on the ball in dangerous areas but can’t get his final ball or touch right. That said, it’s really encouraging he’s being found in those areas and I’d bet on him eventually getting one right if the chances keep coming

Spent the whole half playing with our food

The number of promising attacks that have ended with the wrong final pass or touch is aggravating. Everything is just off by like 15%

Eze’s been off it at the precise location you want him receiving the ball.

stop wasting high turnovers!!!

I'm obviously ecstatic about Arsenal's draw, but I am not forgetting that the last time we lost a title race, City dropped out of the CL super early to Real Madrid on penalties. I'm extremely nervous City are going to get bounced by Madrid again, allowing them to focus on the league.

We need a fourth goal bc our bozo gene is stronger than their ineptitude
