What do you say, what do you know!!
Lost to the Arse, looked a bit toothless up front. Giroud's goal was a lovely. Losing Capoue, could be a big blow as it looks like he's broken his ankle, which means he's out till Christmas at least.
We looked strong defensively solid, despite the goal and Arsenal looking threatening on the break. Showed why we bought Lamela and Eriksen, need a bit of guile to get Soldado the ball. Townsend looked good, but Walker was on some win the game by myself shit.. Bit bemused by why Holtby didn't come on, as Soldado was all alone up front and had little support, though he held the ball up well. Chadli looked nice enough, couple of cheeky flicks, but seemed to have little pace, which after Bale and Lennon and now Townsend, its what spurs fans expect.
Watched the match up by Victoria park, with Jonny, shoots, and Skoota, and decided that now is not the time to let my natural spurs caution take hold. Fuck it we've splashed the cash as I've wanted us to do over several seasons, we've bought in exciting players both finished article and young with upside. We'll play better than this game, even though we didn't play that badly.
Yes Arsenal won a close fought game, put aside some of the crisis talk that had been hovering, but lets get some perspective, third game into the season. No point getting all excited until after 10-15 games to see how its shaken out (though I did enjoy being almost top of the league).
Season is young and I can only see us getting better.
