Spurs fans coming in here bragging about a draw when all 4 goals were flukey and neither team played particularly well is so on brand. Will always be little brother to Arsenal.

Maybe one shouldn't be so incredibly cocky before games, I don't know.

For the record I do feel quite a bit of pride in the team so far. Postecoglou has turned them around compared to last season. People kept saying that they would get exposed against better opposition but they got a very convincing draw in one of the most difficult fixtures of the season. They just keep proving people wrong.

Let's not hope this is their famous last words lol.

Neither Spurs goals were flukey, they were open play goals while Arsenal got an own goal deflection and a hand ball that wasn't going in.

Arsenal only better than Spurs once in 8 years, talk about a fluke.

Arsenal has only finished above Spurs once on the last 8 years? For real? That's kind of hilarious.

It really is pathetic that Chelsea are at a point where I was with the St. Louis Rams years ago. I turn the game on Saturday or Sunday morning because I have nothing else better to do, and turn it off at half time regretting how much time I wasted.

I'm not watching until Palmer or some other attacker starts at #10 with Enzo dropping deeper to his preferred position. I won't include Colwill sliding to CB and an actual LB starting at LB because that would probably mean I'm not watching a game for a long time.

Arsenal have finished above Spurs in the league pyramid in 67 different seasons since their first campaign together in the EFL (1908-09), with 21 of these coming consecutively between 1995-96 and 2015-16 – the longest run of supremacy (either way) between these clubs in league history

If we really want to play that game.

No one cares. It's just based on the flexing you wouldn't think that Spurs have been (seemingly by far) the better team for the last 8 years. I don't give a shit what happened 20-80 years ago. That's ancient.

I mean you thought it was hilarious so 21 years must be Dave Chappelle level comedy then.

And how many trophies have they won again? Also hilarious.

By that logic, Saka's goal was still an open play goal even though it was a deflection. And the penalty was a legit penalty even if the shot wasn't on target.

Call them "flukey" or "defensive errors," but regardless the point was that neither team created their goals from great play, but rather it was sloppy defense / errors. Nothing to brag about.

It wasn't legit, not even taking into effect the ref missing Maddison being fouled before the goal.

Wow, now that Ange and a Sport Bible article quoting Gary Neville and Twitter posts has called it out as a bad call, I'll surely change my mind... Excellent journalism!

I mean, I've been posting the same way for like 5+ years now, if people like the Frisbee bloke can't handle that, I don't know what to say.

Le Saux, who's one of the better analysts on NBC specifically mention that "this should be a handball when all is said and done." People arguing that wasn't is simply Pejorative Slured, that's the definition and exact play of what a handball needs to be in this sport.
