I realise I'm responding to Sandy and that's like talking to a brick wall.

But Smith Rowe, Saka and Martinelli are in the top 5 for providing goals and assists for all U21's in the league this season. They are joined by Phil Foden and Michael Olise.

They have room to develop, but they have been very good this season. It's asking a lot for them to carry us this season, but we don't have a Kane or Son. They are doing extremely well so far.

When he's playing city.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Yeah City, that rubbish team who aren't one of the best teams in Europe.

What's your record been like against them away from home, and did anyone put in as good a shift as Kane did?
----------------------------------------------------------------------

That wasn't my point.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The real point is, that we know what he's capable of with performances like that against City. Clearly we know he's by far the best player from either Arsenal's or Spurs's teams. He's having a season below his usual standards but has been good under Conte overall.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

That's not the real point at all. We know how good Kane can be.

He obviously wants out, which is why he put in a masterclass in front of Pep. He will still score goals though.

Conte clearly just wants a payout.

Your best player and manager not wanting to be there doesn't exactly auger well. The rest of the squad knows this aswell, they're not stupid. Which is part of the reason you've seen so many inept displays this season.

I think a lot are going way overboard over Arsenal youngsters. Saka is OK, the rest are average at best. You would think they were storming clear at the top of the table with the hype over them.

They are doing what all Arsenal teams have been doing for decades, flat track bullying teams in the bottom half a dozen.

I would not be getting that carried away at the moment if I was an Arsenal fan.

----------------------------------------------------------------------


Agreed, I actually don’t think Arsenal are all that. Neither are we and us Spurs fans know it, but Arsenal fans as per usual going overboard with their form. They have previous for this. It will be a lot closer than they think.

Don,

Sorry, but you're talking absolute nonsense. Pure and simple. It's just waffle.

Who has gone overboard? No-one has said it's a done deal or that we're definitely going to get CL football.

We are appreciating the good form we're in, the good players we have (who are actually performing for us unlike yours) and seeing where it takes us.

We've got ourselves into a good situation, why shouldn't we be happy?

Don_Tottenham of all people saying arsenal fans are getting carried away

Btw, who is actually getting carried away? We're all cautiously optimistic. That's reasonable.

This...jeeze, ive not seen anyone go overboard at all , we're doing OK, we know we are that's it. You lot are trying to say how chit we are, we're just saying we may not be as chit as people think.

Sandy and don are just trying to paint an underdog mentality, so it's win-win for them no matter what happens.

Nobody but our Weare equivalents are getting carried away. We know it'll be tough for us.

Mate, all i see on here is “we are better than you” by Arsenal fans getting giddy as per usual. 3 months ago it was mostly “Arteta out”, proper bi polar supporters. How about you finish the season first hey? Considering we have come above you in the last 7 seasons. There is literally nothing in any of the top 4 challengers, hence why there barely anything in the points total. So, at this moment in time nobody is better. Arsenal are certainly not a better team for me. They are in form agreed, but form can soon end very quickly

We spanked you 3-1 at the Emirates and are currently above you in the table with games in hand.

Saying we're better than you isn't unreasonable, surely?

As you say though, things can change. But, like when some of you were spaffing off when you had games in hand on us, you have to actually take advantage first. Are you confident you can do that?

Oh, my bad we don't have games in hand on you. I was thinking of west ham. We'll have one after tonight though.

Don,

So what you're saying is we can only be happy when the season ends? Where's the fun in that? Why can't we just appreciate things for what they are?

Normally, when the season ends, everyone goes into hiding anyway. That's the beauty of being a football fan. One moment, things are going well and the next, you could go through a tricky spell.

Unless you expect everyone to stay quiet from August to May? And again, I say, where's the fun in that?

As it stands, objectively, we are a better team than you. That's a literal fact currently. Does that mean we're guaranteed to be ahead of you? No. Does it mean we're in a good position? Yes. Can it change? Absolutely.

Right now, we're happy with where we are and saying we're going 'overboard' for that is a bit stupid IMO.

The good form is you are beating bottom six teams. I wouldn't get to carried away.

We just beat wolves in the league twice.

You don't have any games in hand, and beating Spurs this season at the Emirates is hardly a surprise as Spurs have only ever won their once. Just as Spurs in all probability will beat Arsenal in the return at WHL, which will also not be a surprise, as it is years since Arsenal won that fixture as well.

As Don said wait until the end of the season before crowing.

Well Spurs have beaten Wolves twice this season as well, not that difficult. So what's your point?

We lost to Wolves a few weeks ago Sandy

You lied and said we're beating bottom 6 teams, sandy.

Wolves are 8th. We recently beat them twice in the league. You recently lost to them in the league.

Comprehension not your strong suit?

We also had already beaten them twice this season, so I also don't get your point Palmers.

Spurs have also beaten Wolves twice this season, so what part of that don't you comprehend. Unless Arsenal have beaten them three times this season, I don't get why you are crowing on about beating Wolves. Lots of teams have. Try beating City, very few have, and Spurs have beaten them twice, home and away. That's worth crowing about.

One of the times you beat Wolves was in the cup ffs

This has no relevance when we're talking about league.

We have beaten Southampton, Wolves, West Ham, Leicester, Newcastle and Villa - all of whom are not in the bottom 6.

So yet another shocking and easily disproven comment from sandy.

As far as i can see, Arsenal are no different than what they are usually. They beat the small sides and fold like a pack of cards against the top sides apart from Spurs at the Emirate’s, which they always win anyway. Arsenal are no different to how they are normally. They will be in the mix for the Top 4 which they are most seasons. They don’t have any match winners. No world class players. They are in excellent form no doubt, but I still think we will finish above them. If we get 4th or not is anyone’s guess, but I personally still think United will sneak it

Comprehension isn't your strong suit then, Senior Sandy.

Why are you crowing about beating wolves in the cup? It has no bearing on the league.

Arsenal fans are not crowing.
