It looked as though we found the next year that we had in the locker.

More of this please.

13 out of 15 from the next set of games and we will be in a good position for the final run-in.

Seen Rat face Bernado s comments on winning 6 times or whatever. Hoping Citeh can drop more points today just so he can f*ck off.

And for your bingo card, an own goal corner.

Had to work hard for the first 25, after that boom!

Actually felt relaxed watching this one, maybe cuz only 14 left!

Strikers striking, defenders defending, wingers winging, mid fielders passing, and Raya keeping a clean sheet!

And the train kept a rolling.

Going to enjoy this run.

Half the managers play us like it’s a free hit

The other half play us like it’s a cup final

ANOTHER rival manager saying Arsenal are the best team in Europe.

LOVED the game...so glad that we were up for it. Leeds ran and ran and ran but, we outplayed them. We moved decisively, confidently and with purpose. I didn't see too many screwups on our part and Leeds were way way too rough...I thought that many fouls were not called against them by PGMOL. Glad for the win and for the intensity...now, let's end Chelscum's hopes for a trophy on Tuesday...can't stand João Pedro, Enzo, Cucurella.

The real Pedro is back

The one focused on the bigger picture

Kai does give us a new look, and with him playing just behind Gyok might really help if those 2 develop a chemistry. I know its early days but hopefully this is what we need. I would keep sitting Ode as a sub. The team was moving so much better without him and his spins and back passing.

Finally a low blood pressure game! My doctor will be happy

Jesus being absolutely flaky in front of goal as usual- misses that header, then scores a pearl of a goal

How did DCL escape a yellow for that challenge on Gabriel?

And commentators doing their best to get Timber sent off for the challenge on Darlow.

Excellent observations, Pedro.

Arteta was a ruthless gambler today and I'm glad he was! Havertz is going to be the reason that Gyokeres will score more goals before the season 's end.

Arsenal will win the premier league title - the team wants it and has the mentality to win it.

Of course, I want the Carabao Cup more than anything right now, because of the rocket fuel effect for the other competitions. I am confident the gaffer will keep them focused on Chelsea and only Chelsea. I am not worried about Al-Newcastle or One One Five.

I've commented this season a few times that when Mikel gets tight, the team inevitably get tight along with him and we typically see the horseshoe of sadness come back.

Seeing his words pre-Kairat about the reflection and intention to live and play with enjoyment, it sounded absolutely beautiful but I wasn't sure if we'd live up to it. Well, the opening signs are great! Long may Arteta stay calm and confident; he will lead this team to victory if he can maintain it. I don't care if we score only by set pieces and own goals to win it, I will cheer every one. But what we're also seeing is that the better football is returning, and we might just have some fun while we win!

COME ON ARSENAL!

we had the combo today - own goal by set piece

it is still interesting that when city or pool profitted from own goals or terrible mistakes we heard ‘they put so much pressure on, they forced it’

for us it’s luck. doesn’t have anything to do with the fact any opponent knows our strength and they are afraid from every set piece or the stadium going silent before corners … nope, it is lucky

Vik's bagged 4G/2A in 6Apps since January 14.

(Worth repeating here.)

Ok that post got me hyped! Impressive performance today. Gotta be said though, we’ve changed our style. More direct, no four thousand touches from ode and actually a bit ruthless. I’ll take another one of these Tuesday please

Great rousing post Pedders!

Up The Arsenal.

We were magnificent today.

We do have our lows but as long as we keep at it and show that we can turn things around, who's to say we can't do what is needed to bag a trophy?
