Eight minutes of nonsense have all but put paid to manager’s title dreams after draw with Aston VillaMikel Arteta dropped to his haunches, laid his hand on his brow and let his head slump. When he looked up again, he had his thumb and forefinger to his eyes. It was the fifth minute of injury time, Leandro Trossard had just rolled a shot wide and Arsenal’s final chance had vanished. With it, perhaps, so had their hopes of winning the league. At the very least, the gains of Wednesday were handed back.As it turned out Trossard, who had been Arsenal’s most dangerous forward, may have been a fraction offside anyway, which perhaps would have been the most fitting conclusion. In the previous eight minutes, Mikel Merino had seen a goalbound shot deflected in off Kai Havertz’s hand and hit the inside of a post. There was a sense in those closing stages of the fates, or at least Arsenal’s chronic inability to seize the moment, being against them. Continue reading...

Manager’s refusal to be spooked in the face of more dropped points paved way for leaders’ late surge to victoryThis was a really good game for Arne Slot. On an afternoon when Liverpool had 35 shots in 90 scoreless minutes, then won the game with their last two in added time, and when those goals were scored by Slot’s first substitute and created by his fourth, it was above all a very good game for the idea of process, control and calm intervention.Admittedly these are not generally qualities associated with a late match-winning, mane-tossing, nostril-snorting two-goal Darwin Núñez salvo. But this was how it played out at the Gtech under Slot’s hand. Núñez doubled his league goal tally for the season. He resembled, as ever, and at all moments , a footballer being chased around the pitch by a swarm of invisible bees. He also came away looking on the metrics like a precision stealth weapon deployed at just the right moment. Continue reading...

Mikel Arteta looked like he had seen a ghost.

Arteta could only watch on in horror as Youri Tielemens pulled one back before Ollie Watkins volleyed home the equaliser to the delight of the Villa supporters and their manager, who celebrated wildly at the final whistle as he did back in March after a 2-0 victory here that eventually proved terminal to Arsenal’s title challenge last season. Yet even when it seemed they might have won it late on through Mikel Merino, Arsenal’s joy was short-lived as VAR ruled Havertz had diverted the Spaniard’s effort in with his arm to ensure ...
