Arsenal looked as though they would be going level at the top of the table with their opponents for much of leo messi news now the second half. Kim Little was the beneficiary of a controversial penalty decision to give the hosts a 1-0 lead. Merson has gone with a 3-0 victory for Mikel Arteta’s side, which seems like a very fair prediction when you look at the form of the two teams. The Gunners really needed a new man in the middle of the park after Albert Sambi Lokonga was loaned out to Crystal Palace and Mohamed Elneny underwent surgery following a serious knee injury. Spurs fail to win a header, and then another header, and Arsenal send Saka away down the right. Excellent run from the England man, plays it inside to Martin Odegaard who takes a shot and drills a hard low shot past Hugo Lloris. That is excellent from Arsenal but my goodness Spurs are poor.
