This was another big result for us, this time against the reigning champions. We stuttered midweek but today came out with a bit of umph about us and we ran out clear and deserved winners. It suggest a close game with only one goal in it, but the truth is we controlled the game, even with 10 men for the most part of the second half. That is a bit of a downer that we miss Porro for Mondays game against Brighton, he was playing well and clearly took one for the team, and we should also mention that Elanga's penalty is still rising we think, had that have gone in it would've looked a more appropriate scoreline on reflection.
But I've said it before, I'll say it again, it's 3 points, 3 welcome points. That's the important part and we'll keep going.
A game that never really got going in terms of entertainment with the final score line and a point each being a fair reflection of how it all panned out. Spurs got their goal very early to take the lead while Lautaro Martinez scored his third of the season for us to tie the game back up before the end of the first period. The result leaves us still searching for our first League victory.

One of the hardest fixtures was next up for Arsenal as they hosted Manchester City at The Emirates. They left it late but they managed a point from the game thanks to a late equaliser from Pepe who come off the bench to get a valuable point and keep the clubs unbeaten start to the season going.
The gaffer spoke after the game ;
" A massive game for any side in this division when Manchester City pay a visit and looking at the game, it wasn't a classic by either side with neither able to get control of the game. Im not sure either side did enough to win it really and a draw was a fair result but when we went a goal down, it was looking like a defeat until we mad some changes which turned out to be the correct ones for a change. Six games in and unbeaten is great going for the side, especially after the last game in the Champions League ".
