Tottenham 0-2 Arsenal : but can Arsenal win the league? No one has the answer but results is the name of the game and for now you can see Arsenal they have managed to get good results. What I can tell you is that the title race is in firmly in their hands.
How did arsenal go where they are now ? Because no one expected them to be where they are .
Someone thought that they are bribing the referees , Believe me we have no evidence on that but maybe it is true or not true but all we can say is they have been wining game by game.
Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta speaking to BBC Radio 5 Live: “Very emotional. It is a very special day for everybody who feels the way that we feel about this football club. We talked about the opportunity and that we have to play with a level of enjoyment because we have the power to make people happy. I’m sure we made them proud and very happy tonight.
“To play in this stadium against this team with the courage, the determination, the quality that we showed, it was very impressive from the boys. But we showed the other face when we had to dig in, we needed some big moments from Aaron [Ramsdale].
On Ramsdale making the difference: “He was the difference when we needed him. In the opponent’s box, we didn’t finalise the actions as well as we should have. They have the quality, when you look at Tottenham’s front three – that is always in the back of your mind.”
On being eight points clear: “It means that the way we are playing has taken us this far and we should never forget that. We have to continue playing this way or better because the team still has a lot of things that can be improved collectively and individually and if we focus on that, I’m sure we’ll be fine.”
On the Aaron Ramsdale incident at full-time: “He’s fine, he’s fine.”
On Mykhaylo Mudryk signing for Chelsea: “I’m very happy with the players that we have.”
Tottenham boss Antonio Conte to Sky Sports: “It was difficult to come back after we conceded two goals. When we conceded the first, we had the possibility to level the game with Sonny and the keeper made a fantastic save. Then they scored the second goal. It could have killed everybody, but not my players as in the second half we tried with a big effort to score and create problems for Arsenal.
“The keeper made fantastic saves today. Arsenal is a difficult opponent now, like Man City. Both teams are going to contend for the Premier League title.
“We played against a strong team but at the same time I’ve not got great disappointment for the commitment of my players. They showed great will and desire to try and come back. Sometimes in the past we did, but today their keeper was really good.
“Arsenal showed to be a really good team. It wasn’t easy for them to play against us in this atmosphere but they have a great balance and suffer in the right moments. They showed great resilience in the second half.
“When a team does this, it means they are ready to fight to win the title with Man City. They are the only two teams who can fight for the Premier League this season.”
On Tottenham’s top-four chances: “We have to continue to work really hard and we will see our position at the end of the season. Be it Champions League or Europa League. Teams like Chelsea, Liverpool, Man United, Newcastle, also Brighton and Brentford. It is really difficult because every team can spend money and even the middle or lower teams have international players.”
On incident with Ramsdale: “I didn’t see it. I only see a big confusion and you are telling me now what happened. If it happened, it is not good. We always have to show respect for an opponent and the players. I don’t like it.”
