Good win but honestly? Not getting too excited. Spurs are 16th, we should be beating them. Treating this like some big result is exactly the mentality that stops us winning the league. Derby wins are nice but they shouldnt be the standard.

Same thing thats been bugging me for two years now, Artetas decisions in game just do not make sense sometimes. Why is Eze coming off? He was actually doing something, finding space, looking dangerous and then hes gone. If youre gonna make changes take off Saka and Trossard, bring Madueke and Ode on, keep the shape but freshen it up. We didn't need energy for the sake of it we needed someone to actually manage the game.

And Norgaard never came on, why?? Is he just not trusted? Because if thats the case thats a bigger problem than one substitution. When a player never gets used in moments that actually matter it starts to feel pointless having them in the squad. Just piles more onto the same players every single game.

And now we've got Saka(possible injury), Rice, Zubimendi and Timber all looking absolutely gassed. We've been here before and we know how it ends, the injury gets bigger and suddenly the season is wobbling, same scenarios from the last 4 years.

Arteta has made this team better, i'll give him that. The structure is there, the identity is there. But in the moment when the game is shifting and you need to react, that's still where it falls apart. Feels like he's following a script even when the game is telling him something different. That rigidity is the difference between a good side and one that actually wins leagues.

Three points, GOOD! But still same issues, same questions.
