Ironic if we get at least a point there next week and that's a result knocking them off top spot.

Arsenal get a second courtesy of expert pressing though not of our levels last season
Both side pressing incredibly well
The top three sides are the best pressing and counter pressing and counter attacking sides - it’s not a coincidence and it is easy to press and counter press properly
Stay close and your side of your man if not needed in the attack able to move beyond him when a chance to be involved arises and everyone not involved in the attack pick up
It’s easier to play a pass and move game from there as you’re picking them up not the other way around and it’s easier to make a short run off thrn to receive a pass as a consequence"If Everton were playing at the bottom of my garden, i'd close the curtains”

Press is excellent look at Saka a lot too, in between two blocking the lines able to press the one closest quickly and their player behind ready to press the one he’s blocking the lines able too if they try and lift the ball to him
It’s so easy it pains me we’re not doing it at any sort of level this season"If Everton were playing at the bottom of my garden, i'd close the curtains”

If we capitalise by winning our own fixture there is every chance we'll find ourselves 5 points clear of the sides in 5th and below which would be a nice cushion to have ahead of some of the tougher fixtures that will come thick and fast, including that Arsenal fixture.Originally posted by Kev0909 View PostGood result for us with chelsea drawing for battle of 4th.....

Villa are set up to play on the counter. After going 1-0 down, what’s the score? It’s 4-0 einstein.
They can’t even get out of their half and consequently chase the game. They capitulated within a 15 minute spell, BECAUSE they can’t press and counterpress like a top team.
Are you actually watching the game or just pulling out your “press and counterpress” as a default sage point? lol

Sums Villa up that being kept out on the line. League is bang average this season, way more so than the media were spouting off about last campaign.
4-1 deserved tonight but it seems Arsenal are fighting to every point whilst City are still in neutral waiting to go up a few gears at any time.
