I suppose come from behind victories at Villa Park aren’t for everyone.
Excellent #Arsenal performance today vs Newcastle. This feels like the first big game we’ve won in a while, and the boys needed to be at the top of their game. Quite a satisfying game, and it puts the pressure on City, which is all we can do at this point. No matter what happens, I’m so proud of this team.
#Arsenal we’re robbed of a chance to play against Lampard’s Everton. It’s only right that we get to play against Lampard’s Chelsea.

This is satisfying to watch and all, but keep in mind that Conte was offered and turned down this job once before. He even gave an interview in which he explained why he was refusing the offer. It’s not far from what he says here.

Conte knew what he was getting into when he let Paratici talk him into the job. https://twitter.com/FabrizioRomano/status/1637168075358236672

I guess coming from behind to beat Bournemouth isn’t for everybody.

FROM 2-0 DOWN TO 3-2 UP! THAT IS HOW WE WIN THE CUP!!

#Arsenal unchanged from the Leicester game for the match vs Everton. I think this is the right call against that stubborn low block we’ll see. Trossard and Martinelli fed off each other so we’ll that they animated that side. I think we’ll give Everton more problems this time than last time with this side.
VAR what is it good for?

Tough game, but we managed to weather the storm and get those late goals to get back to winning ways. This feels like one of those performances that injects belief back into the team and can get us back on track.

And City dropping points to NFFC can only add belief that we can actually pull this off.
