LUT 3-4 ARS: Are You F***ing Kidding Me?

 I expected a routine 2-0 or 3-0 win at the home of a team that has scored less than a goal a game this season, but instead I got a roller coaster ride courtesy of David Raya's awful performance and a determined, physical Hatters side helped by the home crowd and wimpy refereeing.  We were dominant for most of the game, controlling possession and creating chances, but sloppy defending on corners allowed two goals and a howler from Raya gave them a third.  It took some lovely work from our men and last second heroics to wrest all three points from Luton.  I was a nervous wreck throughout the second half, though not as nervous as Raya looked.  Ramsdale should start for a while.  

I read that eleven different Arsenal players scored our last eleven league goals before Havertz's.  Wow.  Havertz is finding his rhythm.  Really, all our guys were good except for our keeper.  We're five points up on Liverpool and six on City having played a game more.  It will be tough at Villa Park.  Arteta will be watching from the stands, having received a third yellow, this time for getting out of his seat after Rice's last second winner.
