John Terry shares what Arsenal are now doing that he hasn’t seen in ‘many years’
Arsenal have gone into the international break with their unbeaten record intact after seeing off Southampton in their Premier League encounter at the Emirates Stadium.
The Gunners fell behind to Cameron Archer’s 55th-minute goal, but they equalised just three minutes later through the in-form Kai Havertz.
Gabriel Martinelli then came off the bench to put Arsenal ahead in the 68th minute before Bukayo Saka made sure of all three points in the 88th minute of the match.
For the third week in a row, the Gunners were faced with a setback but went on to claim a positive result.
They trailed against Man City before going on to lead and then draw, and they were pegged back by Leicester City before going on to win late on.
Now, Arsenal were at risk of slipping up for all of three minutes, and eventually battled back to secure a win that looked routine on the scoresheet.
Chelsea Legend John Terry has now shared what he has witnessed from Arsenal that he hasn’t “seen in many years”.
John Terry hails ‘horrible’ Arsenal
Terry, speaking on Final Score, said the Gunners are now capable of bringing out a gritty, “horrible” side that enables them to get over the line.
“Arsenal have got something new which I haven’t seen in many years,” he said, via the BBC Sport website.
“This horrible side, the grit and determination – they’re all happy to do it and they’ll muck in.
“They have the heart this time and they are hurting from over the last couple of years.”
Mikel Arteta reportedly buoyed by Arsenal steeliness
Dublin’s comments echo what Miguel Delaney wrote about Arsenal in this week’s Reading the Game newsletter (4/10/2024, 12:30pm).
Delaney wrote about how Mikel Arteta was ‘especially impressed with how his team handled the “emotion” of the Leicester match, which was just as important as their tactical application.’
He continued: ‘The Arsenal manager knows how galling it can be when a team thinks they have a game won only to squander a 2-0 lead and be pegged back to 2-2, which was why he was so enthused by the response.
‘The team didn’t allow the “emotion” to get to them in the way they might have done in the past.’
