Arsenal Battle It Out For 3 Points Against Leeds
The Premier League is really such a joke of overcomplications, the Arsenal game was delayed because the refs mic wasn't working and he couldn't speak to VAR and his linesmen which is what refs were doing since the beginning of the game of football before technology crept in and made it shit. I honestly don't care much about fair, you are never going to get fairness in football regardless of the tech you use, its always going to be up for human interpretation.
The game was delayed and no one could figure out how to fix the fucking thing which is even more embarrassing you telling me a billion dollar industry doesn't have proper tech support?
The game finally got started after 40 minutes and boy did it need all refs and VAR on point pushing it to the limit

When the game finally got started it was a balls to the walls humdinger with loads of drama with a two penalties for Leeds one missed and one reversed a red card that was reversed and arsenal holding on to a lead without playing very well
Mikel did well to change up the squad with some solid subs and sure up the team for a win as they look to keep the pace at the top of the league
It was a lucky win in my opinion and we March on with the best start to a season in ages
Leeds will feel hard done for not taking a point from this game but if they can continue to play like this at home for the rest of the season they’ll have no problem staying up

Hi mate,Greetings,
"A few talking points:
It was not that Leeds' pressing game was something Arsenal isn't used to, but their failing was their unsatisfactory ball handling. They needed to be more intelligent when in possession.
The major culprits in the point above were the two Gabriel's– the striker keeps holding on to the ball(to dribble) for far too long for such a match where Arsenal was under pressure; the defender, as always(even last season) is not an assured fellow on the ball,when push comes to shove. Even the impressive Martinelli also was not helping matters at times holding unto the ball so much and being crowded out. Captain,Martin Ødegaard couldn't find solutions in that kind of frantic game.
Beautiful to see Arteta haul out the captain early enough, to allow the midfield maestro, Fabio Vieira, work his magic. But the faltering guys mentioned above made his work difficult. Finally and correctly Gabriel Jesus was taken off.
You need to credit Arteta for inviting Holding from the bench,to change shape to a back three(or five) once Jesus was taken off to give Leeds a more difficult route to the goal. It wasn't the only option in that circumstance, but it was a sensible, smart option.
You can't but notice that eventhough this was not the usual vintage Arsenal attacking performance, it was a master-class in how to position yourself without the ball. The boys are so well drilled on what to do or where to go without the ball(with a leader like Xhaka offering calm, that someone like me was confident they would see the match through."
