My son in law told me this morning that in all the years he has been a season ticket holder and the years before that when he went when he was able to get a ticket, he has never experienced anything like as it was when Gabi scored, the stadium went mental, absolutely crazy.

Brilliant gesture from our captain, encouraging Emile, Mo and our youngster Sagoe Jr to take applause after the match. Classy :)

I saw lots of people saying Ramsdale didn't really do anything to be dropped and I did agree, that it seemed pretty unfair, so I was looking up the difference in their passing, to see if it seemed justified and the first thing that jumped out was Ramsdale's save percentage over the first 4 games and I don't know if he actually has been that harshly done by tbh.
In the first 4 games his save percentage was 55.56, only making 5 saves and conceding 4 in 4 games, that's pretty terrible at what most of us consider should be the reason he shouldn't be dropped, he's maybe not as good as distribution, but he saves goals. Raya made 4 saves just in last night's game, he also claimed the ball everytime it came in the box, making it look easy.
In terms of passing in the Everton game Raya had 93.75% accuracy, attempted 9 long passes, successful with 7, with an accuracy of 77.78%
In last night's game had an overall accuracy of 82.5%, attempted 17 long passes, with 12 successful with an accuracy of 70.59%
In the 4 games previously Ramsdale had an overall accuracy of 77.08%, attempting 33 long passes, successful with 11, with an accuracy of 33.33%
Maybe the added spectre of Raya and the added pressure has been unfair on Ramsdale and made him make mistakes, but Raya has taken his opportunity and looks far more composed, it looks like a totally justified decision to me.

Think it's going to be a cracking atmosphere tonight at the Emirates.
How we progress in this competition is a mark how far we have come

Three points needed today lads and Sally - payback for Dyche`s first game in charge. Vieira ESR or Havertz with Odegaard and Rice? Strong midfield either way and expect Jesus to start COYG.

Having seen utd in a couple games, I was disappointed that at 90 minutes we were still drawing. I honestly expected us to rip them apart. Ecstatic that we won, and while I don't condone violence, the cherry on the cake was Keane getting nutted.

Could we utilise Mo Elneny further back if necessary?

So, just quick rant from me.
Firstly, there's noway that havertz is an upgrade on xhaka. maybe couple of seasons ago, but not in this current time. Secondly, why we're willing to let Tierney go is beyond madness.
Thirdly and most importantly, why is arteta continuing to play players out of position to accommodate players we've (in my mind) overspent on.
We were so close to city last season, and (although time will tell) I think we've gone backwards, the meddling of a solid back 4 has confused me, partey, one of the solid defensive midfielder's going right back, and havertz getting so many minutes in a midfield that's crying out for a smith-rowe or trossard.
Was really upbeat about the season ahead after the last one, but this overspending on players in positions we didn't need, and the tinkering has put things on a downer.
Again, a lot of you might disagree, just my opinion. Hope we turn things around. COYG.

Just watched the highlights and a Rice highlight on YouTube from the match. He looked solid and sensible on the ball. Plenty simple forward passes, winning duals and interceptions.
Anyone see him live and give a little more perspective? Really unlucky not to score which would have been a nice middle finger up to Souness
Can't find a highlight video of Kai - how did he do.
