Arsene Wenger has erred on the side of caution and left the Arsenal and Chile star Alexis Sanchez out of his match day squad altogether, despite the former Barca forward declaring himself willing to play – despite the medical advice that it would be a little bit too soon for him.
Danny Welbeck is properly fit again though, and the boss has brought his other summer signing straight back into the starting XI for the Gunners trip to White Hart Lane for the second North London derby of the season. I am a bit surprised to see that it is the England forward Theo Walcott who misses out though, with club record signing Mesut Ozil keeping his place in a wider role and Santi Cazorla continuing to run things in a central attacking midfield position.
That one change is the only one the manager has made, so Bellerin, Monreal, Ospina and Coquelin all get the chance to keep up their excellent recent form. This is likely to provide a stern test of Arsenal´s new found solidity and balance as well as a test of the character of our players in a vociferous and hostile away game, but that brilliant away performance at Man City is fresh in the memory and no one should be anything but confident.
Ospina
Bellerin, Mertesacker, Koscielny, Monreal
Coquelin
Welbeck, Ramsey, Cazorla, Ozil
Giroud
subs: Szczesny, Gibbs, Gabriel, Flamini, Rosicky, Walcott, Akpom
Go get em you Gunners!!
get well beck off he is going to be sent off and he is exhausted…gave the ball away 3 times in first minute of half….very poor
He’s been OK in defense and his usual horrible in the attack, we need Walcotts counterattacking ability
Ramsey,wilshere, Szczecny – p45
come on, 3 more goals.
The rivalry between the two Dannys can cost US 3 points. Welback needs to calm down.
yeah welbeck off now, walcott on
Welbeck looks exhausted!! Time to bring on Walcott.
Ramsey has been poor so far!! And Welbeck is exhausted!! Rosicky and Walcott please.
Welbeck is a liability already a yellow and looking tired time to change him
i cant believe how poor our ball play has been …it costs in the ned
Water your damn pitch Spuds!!!
We need a second goal ASAP. I am sure we are going to finish the game with 10 men.
wenger waiting for them to score
So stupid.
It was coming…
jesus he is a joke manager i am sorry to say
All Ramsey has done all game is pass the ball to tote
It was inevitable!! It was fu*king inevitable!!!
if wenger doesn’t a change now, we gonna fall down….. fact
WHO THE HELL IS AT THE BACK POST WATCHING HIM?????????
Hector
make* a change
exactly as i said, rode our luck too many times….
this is painful!!
what the fu*** is wenger doing…wellbeck ramsey off now
WHERE ARE THE SUBS WE ARE TAKING A BEATING
make a facking substitution now¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡
Welback and Ramsey offf NOW!!!!
Ramsey, Welbeck off. Rosicky, walcott on…. horrible passing, cant take it anymore…
Bring on Walcott for Welbeck PLZ!!!
Get Rosicky on.. Ramsey is not doing anything. We need to keep hold of the ball..
40% possession. 14 shots to 3. Hope we can survive.
i iss sanchez soo much…
Why the fcuk hasn’t rose, Benteleb or mason been booked? Repeated fouls with no punishment.
SANCHEZ WHERE ARE YOU….DARN WHEN WE NEED YOU MOST
Yo, I think Ospina might be hurt of something
Opsina what a beast
this is shocking management
so is wenger just waiting until we concede again to make a sub?? we’re getting battered and cant make a single pass
Pleaze bring Rosicky… What is Ramsey doing there?
Rose should be off, Walcott on
Rose?
For all those fouls… I mean a red card!!!!!!
We cannot let these f*cking morons walk all over us like this!!
ramsey abismal today
Wenger fks it up again, where’s Walcott and Rosicky, Spurs are all over us in the first half and Wenger doesn’t do anything, Their goal has been coming for the most of the game! Yet for some reason giving in and not controlling the game!
Make some Changes.. We need Rosikcy and Walcott on now..
Just when I thought WENGER was seeing the light………..FROZEN
Flamini warming up ??? Is Wenger playing for the draw now?? Typical 4th place mentality.
Tom is warming up
cazorla??????????????????//
I can’t believe this, Santi off, what is Ramsey doing on there
really???? cazorla…………. speechless
what a typically stupid wenger decision….why we will never win anything uder him
Santi off, why not Ramsey?
Cazorla??? Thats a shocker!! I was hoping for Ramsey for fu*k sake!!
Ramsey should be taken off.
ramsey playing like sh*t and take off cazorla………………speechless
OMG, what can you say!!
Sorry i can only see a spurs win now
jesus the truth is they are a much better footballing team than us…and more passion
If we lose or draw I will blame Wenger because even if he didn’t start Walcott he should not wait until late in 2nd half to put on Walcott/Rosicky
Incredible management today. Unbelievable
Giroud is still doing warm ups!!
of course we are losing this game…wenger is a joker
Fukin sub Giroud and let hav pace upfront to stretch their defence & pressin higher up
This bloody ref is playing for them!!!!
pls tell me Giroud is a defender playing high up the pitch. He doesnt hvva single shot.
no wonder ozil doesnt hv much assists with us. he passes to giroud to shoot, but giroud passes to someone else
for god sake, take ramsey off……………….. he is making stupid mitakes
it should be Ozil out not Cazorla, at least he can defend ..
3-0 or 4-0 win yes, said that was boll*cks!
We are spineless and slow today.
Wengers team selection has meant his substitutions are tied.
Ozil, Welbeck, Giroud, Ramsey, Mert all poor.
We dont look hugry and we have now pacey outlet to push them back, Walcott, Akpom? Think Wengers waiting to see if they score a second!!
I can’t watch anymore, we being bossed and it not the same as City.
I think ref not dishing out yellows for Spurs plays a role, but we haven’t got going.
And where is Theo, bring him on for Welbeck.
also I’ve noticed we are starting to push up but not get back, Mert and Kos the only men back, deja vu from the black days.
make a change you gallic zombie….
had our chances…
whats hapened to us.. at times like these i miss our posession game..
We just can happen to keep the ball
Get the donkey off
ugh, we have to take our chances now….
last year 3 wins, this season ????
Yes because last season Tottenham were a much weaker side that purchased a multitude of players that didn’t gel well together. This season they are much stronger. Am i the only one noticing that this is a much strong and in form Tottenham side?
dont rate the whippet but if he scores will forgive him
and ramsey lose the ball again………
Moaning and moaning again. When this worked against Man City everybody praised Wenger. Now that it is not working as well, he is a poor manager. One thing you all choose to ignore which is sad is how in form Tottenham have been lately. Did you really expect us to walk over the team that beat Chelsea 5-3? Delusional much? Walcott will come on soon and reinforce our counter attack so chill the hell out people.
shut up, you are moaning now
Yes i’m moaning cuz im tired of people ignoring facts and complaining
if you think this was the same way we played against City, you are blind.
come on theo, remember last year?
what’s wrong with you wenger? we need pace, giroud giroud not welback
TG Lamela is a donkey
Ramsey SUUUCCCCKKKKSSS
ramsey should be sent to the championship he is useless
Will we take a draw?
We are making every pass seem so difficult..
Referee is a joke- get him off!!!!!
Cmon arsenal
Showing far too much respect. This is Tottenham Hotspur, not Bayern Munich…
Ramsey and these passes… killing me
Ramseys season has been one to flush down…..
soo sh*t ramsey today……….. the bench is waiting for you…. i hope so
i cant believe he played ramsey in this game…he has been shit all season and was hopeless to fday wenger cant make proper managerial decision
Tottenham deserves that, we have been shit
Harry Kane, best player in EPL?
A DEFEAT AGAINST SPUD……………. FACKKKKKKKKKKKKK¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡
Played horrible.
shit
i wany wenger out after this game…not just because we will lose but because it exposes AGAIN that he is an expert in failure..,its shocking just resign you french joker
Terrible, embarrassing performance.
ANWFUL SUBTITUTION……. WENGER LOSES THIS GAME…..
2-1
Thanks Wenger for your wonderful management skills. He will justify it by saying Derbys away are always tough to win
We deserve this. Too much respect shown. Just fcuk this bloody sh*t. Each and every player was sh*t today.
Told you Spurs today are just better than us
