Yes, as a 'hit' etc. it's a great strike and definitely 'better' than Ramsey's for me.
As a 'goal' though, the Arsenal goal, as a team, is superb.
Interesting really, what makes one better than another?
I THINK, for me, when there's such a team build up so well executed, I tend to like them more - unless it's a seriously ridiculous bit of skill at the end..

We will pay the price but we will not count the cost..

Almost another amazing team goal tonight, but we missed the actual goal part. Ten in a row, one more game we should win left before a proper test on how far we've come.

So far I'm really liking Emery, still not the perfect team but he's tactically smart and changes things. I don't think, despite being 2 points off the leaders we are challenging for the title, but this is a much better first season under a new manager than I expected it to be!

That is the most I've enjoyed watching AFC for a long time.
First goal (ours not theirs) I'd call a typical Ozil goal, no nerves just calmly passes it into the net.
His pass to Bellerin for the second was a definite 'Oh what' moment and the third was the sort of goal we used to score in Henry's prime. Straight out of defence and into the net.

I'd struggle to pick out a bad performance. Holding had a bit of a flaky first half and that's about it.
Iwobi is just oozing confidence and ability.
Cech may not walk back into the side as Leno is doing really well.

Their penalty appeal. I'm wondering if the ref saw what the replay reveals, that the Leicester player heads Holdings arm onto the ball. Either way we may have got away with that one.

10 straight wins and we should get stronger as the season progresses.
No we aren't winning it but top 4 and the very late stages, if not winning, the Europa are a distinct possibility.
First time in ages I'm actually looking forward to facing a top team.

I think that would have been harsh, although they never showed a close up of earlier in the game when it felt like Holding did hand ball a clearance.

Wait till you lot come up against a decent team. Most of the ten you've beaten are bang average.

Anyway, moving on from petty North London rivalry (  ), here's an article that should resonate with Arsenal, Spurs, in fact supporters of every team, about Kroenke's compulsory purchase of the remaining shares:

Yep, we're just happy every single team we should definitely beat, we've beaten. This is not something that's been true for the last few years. ;)

There's a helluva lot of average teams then as it's only been done 6 times in 58 years.
