We normally have a couple of infographics before big games and this will be no exception, but usually we find that the Gunners stats are usually better than our opponents – even against Barcelona! But tomorrow’s game against Spurs is not looking as positive as usual, either for our midfielders comparison from FootballFanager, or for the Combined XI figures.
Let’s start with looking at how Ramsey/Coquelin compares to Alli/Dier….
Not looking very positive there! Now on to the whole team……
Who makes it into the North-London combined side based on pure stats?
Our friends at Oulala.com have taken a look at all the player stats between Spurs and Arsenal before Saturday’s game to build a combined XI, and the figures don’t look too good for the Gunners!
