Ben White BACK POST INTO A DANGEROUS AREA. NIL NIL, BOYS. LET'S GO. LET'S GO. DON'T LOOK TO THE LIGHTSMAN. YOU'RE ON SIDE. CAL FURY, I love you, mate. >> How many times do you see Ricardo Califury in the right place at the right time? And it's Niu on that left hand side who stands that ball up to the back post. Ball comes back across goal. Califury makes the run and he beats the goalkeeper James Trafford. But you got to give credit to Mu there right foot picks out the whole game. Noni has been very positive from this left hand side. Benjamin White's done well to get it back across. >> Califury's made a habit of being in the right positions all season and he's one of our most informed players and he's popped in with a go at the best time. Now let's go and ask now one let's wake up and let's ask some questions of leads and stop messing about. >> I'm also going to ask a question of the goalkeeper because I think James Trafford has to save that. >> Very close, isn't it? >> I think he has to save that. I think you'd like being I think I think he probably I think James Trafford is is a top keeper and I think >> he's very close and very close. No one's picked up Ben. No one's following the last lane. >> Oh, you're right by I was going to mention that second thing on Califfury who makes that run. There's a couple of these players when we just watch him the box. They've got to follow the man. So you're right. It's Paul defending to allow Califfury to run. >> That is our only bit of quality so far today and that's discting as well. I think it's really poor from Lee is just standing there watching the ball. You know, they've worked so hard and you just switch off like that. Switch off so easily. >> What did we talk about the start? The second balls the most dangerous thing in in the Premier League. You don't win them back in like we said. It's not like if leads were going to have a downfall, it's going to be by their own. >> Exactly. Exactly. >> Uh Arsenal now 21 to 20. So just above even money. The draw is 5 to four and leads now back out to your chicken. >> 5 to1 as it was before really. But if you took the Arsenal 3 to1 nearly when they were one nil down that's that's the beauty of inplay betting really that if you if you've got a strong favorite and they go a goal down it's just like yeah you're basically backing them minus one on the hand champions man. >> Yeah that's exactly that though isn't it you might have good days when you don't play that well but you still got to get a result. >> Yeah we can't concede two today in my opinion against leads two and you won't get anything from the game. We can we can chalk off the first one just get me a second. Let's just get out of here. But it needs it needs to be significantly better between leads and Brighton. It's we've not been at the races. Now, one game against Brighton, you can chalk that off as as a kind of bad day, but you've had three weeks to sit on this. It's not been the best. But if YOU WIN, YOU WIN. >> WE ARE SICK AT FOOTBALL. >> WE ARE SICK AT FOOTBALL. >> ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED? >> YES. >> Arsenal for 69 minutes have been really, really poor. That though is a goal of real real world class quality. It's one touch, brilliant buildup play. There's a gorgeous flick. Bruno Gimmerez off the bench outside the box. First time finish beats the goalkeeper and CJ that football there is just you have you even applauded that league, didn't you? That's >> would be proud of that. Are you not entertain? They called us boring. How could the Premier League champions be boring? We've turned it on. It's taken away. Look at Look at the nutmeg from the Brazilians. Look at Bruno. Odigard has taken moves over to the left hand side. Holds the ball up really well into Odegaard who goes to Declan Rice. Rice's flick is perfect into the path of Bruno Gimme whose first time shot beats the goalkeeper. Declan Rice with a nonchalant flick. >> This is what we do at Arsenal, man. This is what we do. Declan Rice has probably been anonymous by his own standards, but this is what quality players do. They step up in the right in the right moments. Over to you, Elliot Anderson. That one's for Jamie Hutchinson. >> Hi That's what you want the championship. >> He keeps pushing his Elliot Anderson agenda against me. Keep just replying. >> Arsenal have been poor, but that that is that that's them at their best, isn't it? >> That's lovely football. I mean, that's Arsenal. That's champion football. That's what you want to see if you're CJ or an Arsenal fan. I think again it's frustrating if you're a leads fan because for much much of this game, >> that's that's the brutaless of the Premier League. They poked the bed, didn't there? A bit, you know, the goal in 60 minutes. >> They'd be better off saying a nil, wouldn't they? Absolutely they would have just a little bit longer but like we said Le gave a really good account of himself in this game but you see the difference see the difference in the final third see why Arsenal champions and ultimately that's that if you don't if you don't take your chances and lead had many of them then you will always regress it in the Premier League and Arsenal have the artillery on the bench they can bring players on and they can change the game and they needed that extra extra bit in midfield they needed something and that's what they did with the changes they've made and it's allowed them to get a foothold in those positions they were getting massively run through and they've got the quality to do it in the final third. So what do you expect? You can only if you're a Le fan you can say look it's pretty good performance very good account yourself but again very frustrating because arguably I mean look who knows what the end result will be of this but I can't see it being anything other than Arsenal winner. >> The only positives like the why the game's flipped on its head. We've had two moments and we've taken other than that you know leads are leads we said we said it had six. Yeah, exactly. We said leads would be the reason they don't get any points today if it stays like this. And you know, they haven't taken all of their chances. Again, the second goal, there's not really much you could do about. It's a good bit of play, but the first one's preventable. I'm a happy Arsenal fan, but it's a huge sight of relief. Like, I'll take the three points, but naturally, we need to do better in whoever else we've got next. >> Know Arsenal normally so good in these situations, seeing out games, managing games, controlling games as James Trafford launches it up. Leads do win the first header, but it doesn't go particularly far. And Yurian Timber tries to launch that ball forward. He maybe could have taken it down. Maybe added a bit more time than he thought. It comes back to Goodmanson here for Le United who plays it back to Trafford. And my advice here would be once again try and launch that ball up field >> and try and pick out Dominic Caluin. It does go to Caluan tries to win the header. He comes back to Calvuin now. >> Just fouled him. >> I don't think Saka does well to win the ball back there. >> And yeah, he launch the pitch. >> Don't mind that ref. That's our ball. No. Okay. Come on, boys. >> They just back themselves, Arsenal, don't they? To to defend. >> You always You always feel like they're safe in these situations, don't you? >> Yeah, you do. Yeah, there's no nerves. I mean, again, it'll have to be a worldy to No, but it'll have to be a worldy, I think, CJ to kind of equalize from here, which obviously can happen in football, but I think Arsenal are pretty happy just to sit in here and defend. >> First and seconds, please. >> Aidu's long throw is >> first and seconds. >> Those long throws are he he does a lot of those long throws. Do you not think they're way too like almost like lofty and they're quite easy to clear? They're not, you know, the best ones dilap at that angle. Yeah, basically his just like feels like they're in the air for too long and it's just easy to deal with and then even if Lee's win the first header, they got to win another header to get to get close to the goal. I'm not sure it's the the best tactic maybe. Minutes to go. CJ, what do you reckon? Talk us through it. >> I think we get out of jail here. I think, you know, we took our moments. We turned the game around. Big up big up to us for getting the three points, but we haven't made it easy on ourselves. Leads haven't made it easier for us. Leads obviously they could sit there and say, well, to be fair, Arsenal going into the game was always expected to win, but they should be disappointed. They've had chances to add to the score line. They've been good. They've let themselves down. I will always love to be in this position, but yeah, man, Le will be disappointed, and for us, there's plenty of things that we need to improve both in this game in Brighton, but I'll always take the three points first. So, it's a good way to react after the international break and after the defeat to Brighton. So yeah, man. Put the points in the bed. >> Fast >> Premier League champions doing Premier League Champion stuff. >> I reckon from Le's point of view, they'll probably they'll be disappointed to lose this game, but it's a lot better than losing 5-0 last season. >> Yeah. No, they've they've they've snapped >> progressed inapp. Oh, great play from Saka. ONEONONE WITH THE GOALKEEPER SAKA >> SAVES. >> OH, it saves. >> I thought he saved that. Didn't >> put it, but maybe he did. I thought he put it wide. >> No, I think the keeper saved that. Unless my eyes are deceiving me. Jo should have two assists in two recent Premier League games. One for Kavas against Brighton just >> won last game. >> He doesn't care cuz Arsenal get over the line. Arsenal 2 lead United.
