Tactical Insights: Team Resilience and Defensive Strength

In this episode we look back at the 1-0 North London Derby win on Sunday, making it three in a row at the Toilet Bowl. We examine how, in the absence of key players, Mikel Arteta leaned into the Gunners' defensive strength to keep the opposition at bay – a demanding approach that asked a lot from every player on the pitch. We chat about missed opportunities, elements of the performance that weren't perfect, and a team that fights for each other in every aspect of the game. There's discussion of key moments, not least Gabriel's goal, and the importance of winning this one with the players we had available. Then we have questions about the Man City case, Bukayo Saka and his contributions at both ends, the tactics we deployed, and lots more.
