Just started watching and keeping up with arsenal this season. What is with them and always scoring late game? They do it pretty often. Did it against City, Brentford, Chelsea, United (twice). Is there a reason for this? They look like an entirely different team once the 80th minute hits.
More focus on defense and also more reliance on key attacking players to produce that one moment of brilliance to win/level the game. I think this is the vibes for this first half of the season, and maybe in Jan/Feb.
There will be a point in time Arsenal will have to play the usual attacking football, but there is a lot more game management happening atm. Hopefully saving the energy for the long season as we know what happened last season.
