Arsenal 4-2 Tottenham: 3 reasons why The Gunners made a stunning comeback

2. Emery's substitutions -

Lacazette's lucky shot was Arsenal's third goal

The first half was one of mixed emotions for the Spanish manager. But his calmness in the later stages of the first half gave us the feeling that he was already preparing for the second half. It’s too early to judge The Gunners under Emery in such a short time. But the belief he has got into the team is enormous.

Lacazette for Iwobi and Ramsey for Mkhitaryan were the substitutions Emery made after the first half. These types of substitutions were unheard during Arsene Wenger’s time as he usually waited till the 70th minute to bring on replacements. Ramsey clearly looked more creative then Henrikh and Lacazette offered more trickery and direct approach than Iwobi.

Emery was quick to notice that Henrikh and Iwobi are safe options to play for a draw or to play with the handbrake. And derbies are not meant to be played with that approach. Ramsey’s pass for Lacazette sealed Arsenal’s victory and Torreira’s first goal for the club was icing on the cake.
