I mean, we couldn’t really have complained if we’d drawn that. Let Sevilla back into it with some really poor set-piece defending (why we’re so bad at that I don’t know, we were one of the best teams in the country for it two years ago) and completely outplayed for about 40 minutes after that.
Raya needs to fuck off, where I don’t care, he’s the most unwarranted usurper of a regular starting place we’ve had in years. Odegaard has been well off it since the new deal and I would be happy for him to be benched on Saturday for a rest. Won’t happen cause Arteta won’t drop anyone unless they’re physically unable to play but if we can’t beat Sheffield United without him we don’t deserve to win anything.
But it was two of the best goals we’ve scored all season, we got it over the line and we’re top of the group now so I’ll take it. Rice was Rice, and that was Jesus’ best game in a while.
