That was painful to watch but top 4 should be ours now. We need to find a solution to this away form problem next season.
Not a great performance but I'm struggling to think of one clear cut chance Watford had all game. We defended well. Shame midfield and attack weren't up for it.
The win against Huddersfield away was far more embarrassing than today's performance.
At least today we had lots of chances to score more goals and were wasteful. Against Huddersfield, we barely created a thing in the second half, and they looked the better side. The team bottom of the Premier League this is.
Yes Samir. We get it. You want Wenger back

Actually think we might beat Wolves, cos they can be quite defensive and allow us get on the ball, but the Leicester I've been watching under Brenda will batter us in a few weeks.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Wolves are also physical and brilliant at counter-attacks. Leicester's weakness vs Arsenal is that they try to play football and that's advantage Arsenal - provided we can cut out Vardy's supply line.
Watford looked good and dangerous in the first half even with 10 men. In the second half we kept the ball better but we made our lives difficult not to score the second goal. They had only 1 chance to score second half.
As for the game, it wasn't the greatest display. But 3 points and a clean sheet away from home, whilst Troy Deeney gets sent off.
Not exactly a horrible night's work
Think we only need one more away win now assuming we win our home games. We got to better though no excuses now.

I think exactly the same. Strangely confident of beating Wolves but also think Leicester will batter us. It will be a nervy final day at Turf Moor

The full time whistle
Watford were the better team even with 10
men and surely would of got a goal with 11 men still on.
Problem with Wolves is that they are difficult to break down and Arsenal lack creativity. Brenda’s teams are open and will always leave space so it could play into Arsenal’s hands, but they do have more quality in attack than Wolves.

All that counts is the score in the bottom left hand corner.

United still got City and Chelsea
3 priceless points despite an excruciating last 10 minutes.
Nice to see a ref do us a favour for once.

Arsenal won't be dominating possession against Wolves. Wolves are used to the top 4 dominating the possession and breaking on the counter. Hopeful we'll pull off a victory here.

Probably our best player tonight.
United and Chelsea play each other so we should be ok. Hopefully City batter United and then United beat Chelsea, and they struggle to buy in the summer without CL football.

Teams who play football outplay us. Happened when West Ham battered us this season. Happened when Everton battered us. Even Brighton played us off the park on their patch. We are not at the technical level where teams that go toe-to-toe with us get taken apart. Watford wouldn't dare lay a glove on Spurs with 10-men. They'd enter survival mode and defend for their lives. We're pretty much the only team in the top 6 that could have produced that kind of performance away from home. Everyone knows how bad we are away from home, but even then, I still think people here underestimate just how garbage we are away from home. I don't believe Huddersfield or Fulham would have played any worse than we did today when facing a 10-man Watford for 80 minutes.
