Kante has been adapting very well to the new system and this season he has scored more than ever in his whole life already, if you think that a professional football player should be totally fine with not receiving a simple strong pass then I have nothing to say to you.

Not really, our possession style against other teams has been giving us more opportunities. Also Kante has scored a few goals under Conte too and he was used as a DM. Arsenal are now a fast, physical team that smother our players when ever we get the ball near the penalty area. As much as it sucks that Kante could not get it in, I am not pissed at him. He too looks out of depth vs this Arsenal.

You make it sound like this current Arsenal side are a force....they aren’t, they are very average but that just shows how poor we are.

Still holding on to the delusional hope that we can claw back a point somehow and put a bit of space between us and United in the table.

Not seeing that from where I'm sitting....

True. Using an exact replica of Spur's tactics. Pressing Jorginho and getting in our faces.

How?

Starting Morata would have given us a focal point. Any striker for that matter. Would have occupied the central defenders giving Hazard more room to work.

Again, a professional football player should be able to receive a stronger pass and not to allow the ball to bounce away like he's a tree. It has nothing to do with Kante not being able to finish but the way he poorly reacted to that pass of Alonso. Unless you think that it's totally fine to receive a ball like that. Kante adapted to the new system and proved that he can make runs with the ball, that's 10 times better improvement for the new tactics compared to Hazard,Willian,Morata. The only players that adapted faster than Kante were Pedro and David Luiz, I don't even count Jorginho since he already played that system before.

Good on their day though, tore Spurs apart. But this will feel like a major opportunity missed barring a comeback. With United's momentum I think our only hope could be Sarri taking the Europa League seriously.
