Eddie hattrick. Tomi’s first goal. Vieira being Vieira. Smith Rowe AND Elneny assists. Kiwior being a rock at the back. Millimetres off the perfect game!
Only a Havertz goal away from true perfection :(
EDDIE!!!
This was fun
Despite so many injuries, and key players resting, Arsenal’s looks formidable. This season, Arsenal have the depth to go all the way through.
TQVM Sheffield for the + 5 goals difference padding
They are definitely going down if they continue playing like this, was a stroll in the park really, so much so that the Emirates was emptying before full time
