The Athletic FC

Welcome to the Athletic FC podcast with me, Adam Leventhal.

So Spurs rolled over for their rivals in the North London Derby, but how much should we read into the win for Arsenal as they go for their first title in 22 years?

Or Jay Harris, Art de Roche and Adam Crafton out in New York are with me to analyze the fallout

from the North London Derby for Arsenal, for Spurs and also for what it means for the teams

around them at the top and the bottom of the Premier League.

So we know that Arsenal were comfortable winners.

They've reopened that five-point advantage over Manchester City at the top.

But there were three big subplots for Arsenal.

Another brain fart arrived, Ezra and Giacorez.

And we're going to start maybe predictably with the mishap art, like at Wolves in that

two, two, and four out of the last eight goals have been conceded from individual errors.

But the key thing in this one was that they responded.

And they did it in a way that sort of said we've been

talking about this and we know how to deal with it. That was I suppose that the upside in this game.

Yeah, I think going into that second half, they would have had, I guess, conscious desire to

put that right because as you mentioned, it's been a theme not just for i guess these last

two games were wolves away and totten them away but if you think back to new year's day or just a

couple of days after sorry bornmouth away the first goal of the game is gabriel gifting them the ball

from a loose back pass i think in 2026, their joint first with Aston Villa for individual errors leading to goals.

So it's been something that they need to sort out, even when they win games, I still believe.

But as you say, the fact that they were able to kind of come back and show what they're about is a really big bonus.
