Who's voting very poor for the ref? 

He was fine 

Yeah I think he did really well. Stood up to the home pressure and didn't effect the game in any major way.

[ROTTERDAM1982]

Carlos was superb

Martinez proved again hes the worlds No1

Pau's passing from the back was exceptional.

McGinn was inspirational.

But for me MOM was Tielemans. A top quality central midfield performance. Absolute brilliant.

Special mention for Emerys game plan aswell. The team set up in the 1st half, with Rogers and Zaniolo worked superbly, and we wer by far the better team in the 2nd half

Didn't watch. Looking forward to seeing later. What a win. UTV!

What a fantastic result....le arse wont lose 2 in a row and they have spurs next, we will beat bouremouth nd spurs will lose to the arse meaning we go 6 above spurs against all the conventional wisdom and the spurs love in on sky XD

Have to say I was surprised how ordinary Arsenal looked second half. Like really poor.

I know we played really well and had a lot to do with it but Arsenal had nothing in that second period.

Up The **** Villa

Wtf is this interview? Asking them about their Arsenal connections?

Just watched back to the 5 mins leading up to our first. It’s utterly hilarious. 

[nick76]

But we lost on xG, does that mean anything…

I reckon even @TRO would approve of that!

Excellent performances all over the pitch and perfect game management by Unai. 

It was particularly pleasing that we came out for the second half very very focused and took control of the game - none of that 45-60 minute wobble nonsense today!

Every player was MOTM today but the bedrock of our success was the defending in the first half and Carlos was central to that so my vote goes to him.

Now… what are the prospects of us catching up with Arsenal and Liverpool?

Just came here to say this, the sky 6 love in is disgusting and I’m sure they’ll use that clip as a narrative to try and sell him to Arsenal during TRANSFER DEADLINE DAY

[NorthEastVillan]

Emi really bigging up Ollie there.

"Should be player of the season"

Well put

[stewiek2]

Emi Martinez I love you. Damn right about Ollie

[mottaloo]

Too many candidates for motm to single out - they were all great....perhaps diaby had the quietest game of all of the team but did try.

[flamingsombrero]

[meregreen]

Emery is just an amazing manager.

[HeroesAndVillans]

Side note, very happy to potentially derail Arsenal's title chances. Can't stand their fanbase or their club.

Sky are in shock because one of the greedy six lost, have to make some connection to them. they now saying Emery was a "laughing stock" at Arsenal. Total rocket polishers.

[wishywashy]

Played alright

[MaVilla]

thats the first time Arsenal have lost in the league since December isn it?
