We were the better team yesterday, we put in a match winning performance, Villa (to their credit) mugged us.
The xGa was 0.37. That’s a great performance from us, we do that every game we will win most of them.

We were the better team in spells
We had NO shots on target in the second half
NONE
That’s not us being the better team

Yes we did, it hit the lad in the chest and we tried to get handball for it.
Our xG was three times Villas, that is us being the better team imo.

It was a shot that was defended
Like everything else

It was on target though.

Not according to the same Xg stats you quoted I believe

Great football that got us nowhere.
And a plan B that got us somewhere that isn't/wasnt too disimillar to what we are seeing now.
Think its better to talk about this on Boxing day tbh.

Mark Falco
It would be part of the calculation.

Gary Lineker
I think by Boxing Day the pressure will be immense
Unless of course he adapts to the need to play attacking football of some sort
We can of course win games from set plays and be a poor man’s Arsenal
Some would take that and that nah we’ll keep us top 5

Not from any data I’ve seen as it didn’t get to the goal

Pressure builds
This is Tottenham
Fans expect
And no one gets time anymore as we know
These away games may help

Arsenal are setting new standards in the Premier League this season when it comes to set pieces. With 10 goals scored from dead-ball situations in just 8 matches, the Gunners have become the fastest team in Premier League history to hit double figures for set-piece goals.

Frank was not close to being my choice as manager, but he's here and believe he deserves a minimum of two years to show what he can do, as does any manager.Sadly i fear that for a lot of fans that is not going to happen anymore, christ the guy has been here for a couple of months and is still trying to build a foundation. We should have relized over the years since Pooch left that changing managers because some fans THINK it should happen quicker is not the way to go. I despair sometimes i really do so at some of reactions of a section of our fanbase.
However, as you say this is modern day football and having seen our fans behaviour in the past he has no chance of that. Problem with playing a bland brand of football is that as soon as results turn you have very little to fall back on, and our home supporters are rather unforgiving and not known for their patience.....

You earn time
In every walk of life you have to earn it by doing something
In football you can be a nice guy and say the right things but you have to show that step in the right direction
He needs to do that and he will be fine
Even now as we speak, he has earnt the time. We are in and around where we would hope to be, and as you have said he is an intelligent guy and I hope it's just a case of him learning on the job which obviously involves being given time.
At this stage the football we are seeing at home is nothing more than a slight concern. It's been a handful of games, but he does need to implement some more creative ideas than what we are currently seeing and certain players missing or not we should be playing better - he doesn't help himself with some of his midfield selections. Looking forward to seeing how he changes things up at home, I'm sure he will come up with better ideas....
