- No Rice, no Odegaard, no problem. Arsenal kept pace with Man City in the early weeks of the season thanks to a second-half goal from Gabriel. But without such key players, how did Mikel Arteta ensure his side emerged with a vital 3 points? Adam Clery looks at what they did both with and without the ball that gave Spurs another North London nightmare.

Hi everyone, Adam here! You may have noticed we already published this video yesterday but, sadly, a certain broadcaster tried to claim over 80% of it over a small clip we'd used and, obviously, we weren't going to allow that. So, while we fight our corner on this one we've taken down the original and reuploaded this version that just uses stills. It's not ideal for a few things we wanted to highlight, but hopefully you can still understand it. Thanks for bearing with us and hopefully we'll have the original back up soon enough 🙏
It's sad that mutable people can't talk about the same game ; it will be the same as it is only one game your have to change there names like football games that were not fifa had to change there names 😂😂😂😅
Shame. Guess I’ll just have to watch the video again then!
not sure hy they didnt just invite you on
Shades of that's my ball and I'm going home by the sounds of things! I did think I'd gone slightly mad when I had seen the notification and then came to watch it only to find there was no video.
I appreciate what you do all the way from Kenya
Real ones know this is a reupload
🤐
Hehehe, yeah boi😅
your god damn right!
I was very confused
So the EPL is being horrible about footage copyright resulting in a re-upload of this well made analysis video. Well done 442 and Adam great work!
Footballing institutions hate free publicity and coverage for some reason.
People who say “arteta just copies pep” have literally no clue what they’re on about…his ‘in game’ management and ability to adjust to situations is not just someone copying another manager…
Copied David Moyes in this one 😂
Or Big Sam 😅
Sean Dyche masterclass copied by Qrteta
The lines so compact Rafa Benitez would be proud
Arteta is a genius who started his coaching career while at Arsenal under Wenger. He was supposed to be Wenger replacement but the board thought that the fans were not ready for a manager with no experience. He was Peps assistant for a reason. He personally picked some of City's coaching staff while at city.
Loved the breakdown!
As an Arsenal fan, I love the fact that we're displaying a level of humility and work ethic that is truly surprising. The willingness to do the donkey work and buying into the game plan. Great to see!!!
Young/new Arsenal fans are so not used to what they’re seeing under Arteta’s team, they can’t help but question its strength and resolve before every potential challenge. And this Arsenal team keeps answering every hardship being thrown at them with triumph and success. I don’t blame those fans, they lived through horrible periods, but it’s time to realise this is a new era. It’s other clubs who fear Arsenal now, as much as Arsenal used to fear them only a few years ago.
Insight like this shows why Ozil was never going to work where Arsenal were heading.
Whats ozil got to do with this? He's far better in his prime than any other arsenal midfielder.
Bang on mate 👍🏿
@@beastfootball1782yes but he would never run the length of the pitch to help defend
@@beastfootball1782 ozil was last of his breed, he was probably the best at what he did but isn't the best at what the teams requires him to do
This idea that ozil doesn't run isn't supported by the data
“It’s a bold strategy Cotton!” Top tier Dodge ball reference 😂
as an arsenal fan, i say i disagreed with areteta freezing out auba, but i trust his methods now, you seriously just have to want it more, doesn't matter if you have insane, world class skills. Trossard doesn't score as many goals as auba used to, but he's a grafter for the team and that's more important. Same with Havertz
I would say he's more of a grafter than a grifter, but that's just me.
Yeh quba was dead wood. Although I suppose at the time it was hard to see that
@@drealskero typo. My bad. Fixed it
As an Arsenal fan, I liked the tactics, they constricted them well most times, the press wasn't always smooth with holes popping up, I hope they fix it before Man city , they have way more quality to take advantage of if those holes
For me Timber&Jorginho were MsOTM.
Timber what a player 🤌🤌🤌
Jorginho? 😂
Jorghino didn't do much except losing the ball few times
love Timber - Im glad Neville lauded his defending - the back post man marking he did on Solanke...effectively ushering him away from the ball whilst strangling his movement - thats what weve been missing with Zinchenko et al - full backs who understand the art of full back defending - then you look at his overlap and support play..incredible....he actually reminds me of denis irwin....who was probably the wiliest full back in EPL history
Great Arsenal display. Multi way of playing which is a sign of a great team. This team will do well.
Love how Arteta is able to adapt his tactics to the players he has available and able to nullify opposition teams with such clarity and efficiency
I am biased obviously but I think this is why Arsenal is so great now and over the past few seasons. Before, Arsenal needed possession and an attacking attitude or else they would lose. Teams are not used to Arsenal sitting back, defending, and hitting on the break. But, when they have the best defense in the League, you can do that. If you can trust your back four and the keeper then it makes it so you can focus on the middle and attacking thirds.
One small observation, unless I have mis-read it. James Maddison's pass analysis doesn't include the ball in put into the box for Solanke's header.
Yeh I thought that
Great adaptability from arteta and arsenal. Impossible win ❤
Im not complaining. At least i can watch this again
Guys I have a question on Spurs team. To make better use of Son Heung-min, should they play a 4-4-2 formation? (as CF or SS) From what I've seen, Son Heung-min seems more like a technician who targets goals by penetrating the defense line rather than being a winger crossing. I really don't understand the current Spurs' positioning. Spurs are performing so poorly, and the one resource they should be using well is Son. It’s really frustrating.
I'd like to hear the opinion of someone who knows well? Is the 4-4-2 formation truly an outdated strategy. Setting aside the fact that it may not align with Ange's style,
I wouldn’t say the formation is outdated, but more managers are implementing as an “out of possession” type of formation, which is what you see with Arsenal. You’ll notice that a lot of top teams use 4-3-3 on paper, mainly because it’s more flexible and it can be easily changed into a different formation (4-4-2) depending on the situation. I honestly think a 4-4-2 could work better for son, he isn’t really your run of the mill left-winger. It’s important that he’s paired up with a box presence like solanke though so he can be given sort of a more free role to roam around if that makes sense. Son has worked as a left winger when playing with kane, but that system was also different. Just my opinion anyway👍.
Jurrien Timber frame in the background...love it
Havertz's work rate was instrumental to Arsenal's win yesterday...we scammed Chelsea 😂🔥
Waiting for a video on how Slot got slotted by Esperito Santos 😅
Glad you mentioned Timber. He was outstanding, and so disciplined after receiving a very harsh booking.
Arteta is a mastermind ❤
I went looking for this video and couldn't find it. Glad it's back up though, wonder what happened.
Love what you do Adam, the big question for Arsenal is whether they can keep enough players fit enough to compete through what is an increasingly cluttered season; its an issue for all clubs but especially for those of us lucky enough to be in the Champions League. Just look at our squad issues today and the season has only just started!
I love the analysis, both for this game and in previous videos. Adam asked what Arsenal fans think. I am an Arsenal fan and I loved the work ethic. The closing message about who wanted it more is very apt. I am concerned though, because all sides, when they put in a performance like this, they tend to look jaded their next time out. These boys worked their socks off. I don't know if Atalanta in midweek is a good or a bad thing, but I expect every player in this game to look exhausted in Italy. Look at the way Liverpool put it on ManU last week, then they came out this weekend flat. That is what a top effort does to a side all too often. Arsenal do not have the quality in depth to start a significantly different side against City, and an away trip to Atalanta seems more likely to make the problem worse than better. So I am very concerned about Arsenal next weekend. If Arsenal can do what they did against Spurs, defend even better, and have Rice and Odegaard back, maybe they can get a result at City. But that is a lot of maybe's and I predict Arsenal get beat next weekend. If they can put together two top performances, even with the away trip to Italy in between, I will be happy to be wrong, but I don't think its gonna happen.
It all looks nice and genius when you win. Do a genius plan that ended with a loss .
Great video Adam. I was waiting for you to suggest what Tottenham could have done to counteract Arteta’s tactics. Probably a case of Arsenal being too good one on one?
Arteta is a genius
Jover is a set piece genius
TIMBER, the best left back we have had in ages: speed, strength, and a bit of an enforcer......brdt chsnge to team
Fantastic analysis fantastic result fantastic performance fantastic team …🎉
Awesome analysis and very entertaining. Thanks guys
You kind of just described individual commitment as opposed to any tactical nous.
Love this video, really informative 🔥🔥🔥
Good video man 👌🏿
Rewarching on double speed to give you back your watch time
I have to show my friend this video, he’s convinced Arsenal played too passive against spurs 🤷🏿♂️….Thanks Adam
Park the bus😂. Saka overlapping White to defend against Son had me😂😂
You don’t even know what is the difference between overlap and cover/track back and you think we should listen to you?
@@NorthLondonForeverCOYG I dont think he even knows the meaning of those words.
The gunners have not made the Emirates a fortresses they made the team one 🎉❤
Some teams are a low block team, others are a mid block, we are all block team. The the "efogging standart"!
it's a 3-2-2-2-2 nice and narrow including the goal keeper on rest defence
It's been obvious for a few years now that to challenge $ity you need at least 17 "1st team" players. Until this season I don't think Arsenal had that depth of squad. Now we do.
You're a legend
I thought this was a Timber video
I was thinking "damn, Adam is still in his pijama pants", but then the words were all the same 😂
wait, is this groundhog day?
Was Bissouma not missing through injury? Seems like a relatively important player not to mention
Last time I was this early the Soviet Union was still a thing
That intro made me realize I've watched this before
Defending is not brave. Tottenham would rather lose then play the way arsenal did. But that is that same reason we will never win anything.
Well put together video. You do a great job Adam.
I personally love how arsenal now have multiple game styles. This wasn’t a low block like some ppl have commented, they’re playing to their strengths and they smothered Tottenham all over the field. Defending is as much an art as attack and knowing when to switch mid game js what made the difference
Defending is literally half the game. It's not brave, it's fundamental.
Tottenham won't win anything because they're only mediocre at half the game and bad at the other half.
Tottenham didn't have that many clear chances considering we have two star players out. Tbh Arsenal's squad depth is lacking in comparison to even Aston Villa or Newcastle, but they play better as a team than anyone else in the league.
A team that is meant to be title contenders sit more or less on the edge of their box, and try and win on the counter, which team has had time to build their squad and which team is at the start of their 2nd season?
What a stupid move claiming 80% footage 😮💨😮💨
Squeeze and "transmit", guys. Vamos.
But is Arsenal really so thin, that the loss of Martin and Declan change the entire method?
Of course you’re a goalie, everything makes so much sense
it's quite simple really, you see, Tottenham are awful.
Its ok, I can watch this analysis two times.
I was expecting to see how Forest beat Liverpool
I could swear i watched this video a day or so ago 👀
Where can I get a few of them vintage 02 shirts that are good quality .
Don’t know if I’d consider playing 4 CBs and 2 DMs and sitting in a low block genius. Doesn’t matter though, won the game. It really is dross to watch though.
It's genius when you come away with 3 precious points.
Just think, if they had Rice and Odegaard, it would have been much nicer to watch, and even worse on the scoreline for Spurs. Maybe you should be thankful you only lost 1-0.
I am hoping 🙏 the next premier league game video is how Arsenal out classed man city 😂🎉
No "genius way". They exploited the goalkeeper's weakness like other teams have and stole the points. Imagine that goal against Pat Jennings. The ball would have been punched 50 yards out and Gabriel would be unconscious. It will keep happening to Spurs unless they get a proper keeper.
Immediately you said dual false 9s, I screamed hell yea, saw it all game 🎯
I will be watching again, just because
🤝
Park the bus and counter. Nothing special about it tactically. The only thing that's appreciable is that Arteta's men are good at doing both.
If we win at the Etihad then I think that we can go on to win the league.
If people think modern football is boring, he plays the worst. He wont ruin the sport, he will kill it with his haram ball. Hope they never get to touch the title. UCL is never happening anyway 😂
Reup?
Unbanned!
WHAT DO WE THINK OF TOTTENHAM?
$hi+
Love them
Arteta is the second coming of tony pulis loll😂😂😂
You didn’t watch the video and are trying to hate. Watch the video first.
Arsenal defended very well. Hardly a surprise. They deserved a 0-0 draw but lucked out with Romero's poor marking of Gabriel. Why is there so little commentary on this? I have more of a basketball background than a football background. A defensive basketballer who is free to push an opponent would have easily stopped Gabriel. Romero should have started his defensive position further to the right. It seems easy to me, what football knowledge am I missing?
I love this narrative that “they had guys missing”. Like. OH NOOOO! Let’s not pretend that A. Tottenham didn’t have 2 starters injured as well. B. Liverpool United and Spurs were DECIMATED by injuries last year. C. Arsenal has been EXTREMELY fortunate to have been healthy as many games as they were last season. Only to bottle the league.
Talking about last season this season? Who was missing for Spurs this game. And please learn the meaning of the term ‘bottling’ first. Finishing 2nd isn’t bottling. Bottling is winning until the last second and then unexpectedly lose. Last season too we missed Timber (whole season), Tomiyasu, Martinelli, Zinchenko, Jesus, Vieira (for few months). It’s not like we didn’t have injuries. We were missing 6 players who would start for Spurs - Ødegård, Rice, Calafiori, Merino, Zinchenko and Tomiyasu and still won. You don’t even know what you are talking about. Liverpool have no injuries this season and lost one game, United too doesn’t have any major injuries and have 2 losses (I think), Spurs too have 2 losses with each of their starters present. Do your research properly mate.
@@NorthLondonForeverCOYG Bissouma and Richarlison are injured. We were missing almost the entire back line for 1/3 of the season. You guys WERE in first. And a loss to Villa sealed the league for City. Let’s not pretend that you guys had 10* guys out for a large section of the season like Liverpool/United/Spurs did. Let’s see. What else. The only player you mentioned that was out and would start for Spurs is Odefart.
@@Roundtabletalk4673 Tottenham missing players was irrelevant. Your best team is quite below Arsenal's.
Also, are Bissouma and Richalison good all of a sudden?
@@Qlicky maybe don’t spend 100m on one player and neglect depth. 🤷♂️
@@Roundtabletalk4673 Still didn't need him. Which IS depth.
Genius? Shit housing, time wasting, parking the bus and aiming to score from a corner... What a maverick.
Who won?
If Spurs did any of that they probably would have won.
@@NorthLondonForeverCOYG clearly. But it wouldn't be "genius"
You forgot the winning part.
@@Qlicky missing the point aren't you

Mhm.. this feels like déjà vu
