Match of the Day: Arsenal 1-0 Crystal Palace - Mikel Arteta post-match interview

man, it's crazy how quickly things can spiral outta control... Arsenal's all over the place this season . They've got some amazing talent on the team, but it feels like they're not gelling or anything. I mean, Eberechi Eze is a beast on the pitch, no doubt about that . But seriously though, 2 points up in the league is nothing to sneeze at, and you'd think they could find a way to close out games with some consistency . It's like, what's going through Arteta's head? They're having these epic wins where Eze scores a goal outta nowhere, but then they go and blow it in the next game... it's like, come on guys! Get your act together . Fans and pundits are right, this team needs to step up their resilience game if they wanna stay at the top .

omg i'm so done with arsenal right now they're literally just phoning it in every week and its getting old, like what even is the point of having a lead if u cant capitalize on it? Eze gets all the hype for scoring that one goal but lets be real the team as a whole was subpar ️ Arteta needs to step up his game and fix this consistency issue or else they'll be stuck in 2nd place forever

I'm getting so tired of these 'performances' being considered good enough in the Premier League atm . Arteta's right, consistency is key, but can we honestly say that a team who wins games 1-0 against anyone should be called consistent? I mean, what if they had to face Crystal Palace AGAIN this week? Would they still be able to 'win convincingly'? It's all about context, innit?

I'm not saying Eze didn't have an amazing game, but can we please focus on the bigger picture? Is it just a coincidence that Arsenal are winning so many games without really dominating possession? Or is this a sign of something deeper? I'm all for giving credit where credit's due, but let's not get too carried away with 'unbelievable technique' and 'convincing performances'. Let's see how they do under pressure

I mean, I get it, Mikel Arteta's team is on top, but two points is a good cushion, right? Still, gotta feel for them - consistently winning without looking that convincing can be frustrating for both players and fans. They need to work on closing out games without conceding, like, 0-0 draws or something, you know? But Eberechi Eze's technique is pretty cool, I'll give him that! The fact that he's scoring goals when they're not dominating possession shows his skill level. Maybe the team just needs to figure out how to play more evenly, like, not blow hot and cold all game long?
