    Good spot

    Defender was never getting there but it was a nice touch.

    My favourite bit was the Gyokeres header to clear the corner.

    I will continue to moan like a spoilt little bitch about the quality of our football, whether we win it or not, but I do very much enjoy watching us defend like things possessed.

    The attritional side of football has always appealed to me
    Other clubs never came into my thoughts once I knew Arsenal wanted to sign me.
