Agreed. Yes, the attacking trio are in form and it’s exciting to see them playing together, but our tactical setup looked like a pub game. Some people seem to like this idea of open, attacking football, but in my experience it consistently gets you nowhere when it comes to actually winning. This squad is still a season or two away from seriously challenging for anything anyway, so I suppose it matters little at this point. But defend like this and sooner or later the attack won’t be able to keep up. It was good not to see Sanchez in goal though.

To be fair it was Saka, England's greatest defender bar Bobby Moore

And Jacko taken off after 70 minutes for Tammy Abraham. Desperate at Villa.

Garnacho's on.....fails to beat his man instantly.

1 more appearance closer to making the deal permanent.

Coming on now. A new member has just joined The Villa End called GarnachoandCheese

I don't think Arsenal have been good tonight, but Villa have been toothless. Villa don't look capable of creating a chance. This Villa team against an Arsenal team that keeps so many clean sheets mean that Arsenal can just grind a win out without needing to play well.

Scored that goal against Arsenal and had a positive 45 minutes against a 57-year-old James Milner who was moonlighting at right-back on Mudryk's debut

Nice one Cesc. Although feels wrong Sanchez gets to play CL football and we aren't in Europe.

The worst are the fake ITKs. Sad that people feel they need to lie to be important. I always start the summer just ignoring most of it, and now im hooked as usual😂 I feel Wharton could be a bit of a surprise deal tomorrow. Seems like we have scratched their back with Anahor, and Camara is a Palace target so.maybe why we have stepped back. Be glad when it shuts, but hope we dont leave Xabi short in any department.

Of all the problems with our owners, selling is not one of them. Weird signing for Spurs. Seems like they're taking Mudryk on loan too so they get to put in all the work getting him back to match sharpness and taking on all the risk to see if there's still any potential with him.

Can we not get Conor back as part of the deal? He doesn't deserve this.

Fair play we've shifted so many dossers in this window

Surely it was something like £50m? Can't lose somebody of this quality to Tottenham of all clubs for cheap. He starts every game for them, easily.

As others have said, I feel guilty about being glad he's gone as he's done nothing wrong as a person, he's just been in too prominent of a position for his abilities.

I used to follow it back in the day, BlueCo ruined it for me thought because they have signed so much sh*t. I also hate how much crap gets put out there. So many people desperate for clicks.

He’s a good leader isn’t he. I reckon he should be the captain at spurs.

We've really sold him to Spurs? That's great news if true

That happened quickly. Alonso said one game was enough - we've been doing that for 3 years Xabi!

I envy those of you not addicted to checking transfer news on twitter! Crazy 24 hours ahead. Finalizing Tosin and Mudryk to spurs, Sanchez to Como, and Enzo for a british record to City. Every midfielder we have been linked with Wharton, Scott, Kone, Camara, have all had some report in the last week saying they are definately not for sale, or in Camara's case the deal has gone cold. Cant imagine we would not sign at least 1 midfielder, but who im really not sure.

The season started 1 week ago mate, he’s a 19yr old kid who’s coming back from injury I think it’s a bit premature to be demanding game time, especially how the front 3 have started. If he wants to play top level European football he’s got to expect competition and rotation at any top club. I think people look for problems when there aren’t any.

He's gone man.

Poor Chalobah…

Be interesting to see what the fee is. Good work by SD’s. Pure profit.
