Saka leads by example: academy star, now a growing voice, wearing the armband when needed and producing in every big game. Together they’ve widened the leadership group while Ødegaard recovers.

Rice is the vocal one: constant info, organising the block, driving the counter‑press and keeping minds on the next game, not the hype. A “walking captain” in the centre of the pitch.

On the numbers and the tactics, Arsenal dominated territory, chances and control. A derby that underlined both the gap in structures on the day and Arsenal’s evolution into a side that can manage big games on its own terms.

Off the ball, the press and counter-press turned Spurs’ buildup into long clearances. Arsenal’s rest defence hoovered up those balls, and Tottenham’s front three were left surviving on scraps aside from Richarlison’s moment of magic.

The pattern repeated: draw Spurs to one flank, recycle, then hit the opposite half-space with a vertical pass and a blind-side run. Trossard’s goal from Merino’s drop-and-chip is the clearest example of how that movement shredded their back five.

Merino as a drifting “9” removed Spurs’ reference point at the back, while Eze occupied the half-spaces where nobody wanted to step out. That’s how Arsenal kept finding free men between the lines to feed Saka and Trossard.

I think with the culture at Madrid, a manager won’t really get time to implement a proper style of play. Most of the ones who’ve succeeded there have been great man-managers rather than elite tacticians, if that makes sense.
