Spurs are but to seek out constant type as they intention to return to the Champions League following a fifth-place end final season, successful back-to-back league matches simply as soon as of their opening 10 league video games this season.

However whereas they’ve been unable to match their excellent begin below Postecoglou final time period – they started November 2023 high of the desk – they proceed to point out exceptional resilience below the Australian.

Having responded to the disappointing defeat at Palace by beating Manchester Metropolis to succeed in the EFL Cup quarter-finals in midweek and proceed their pursuit of a primary piece of silverware since 2008, right here they conceded the opening purpose for the twelfth time in 14 house league video games in 2024.

Nevertheless, by full-time that they had equalled the Premier League file for house wins when conceding first in a single 12 months – with this the eighth event.

Villa’s opener got here in opposition to the run of play however by way of a well-recognized vulnerability for the hosts, with a mixture of Pedro Porro and Rodrigo Bentancur diverting Digne’s set-piece in direction of Guglielmo Vicario, who may solely parry the ball into Rogers’ path.

The hosts had been relieved to see Ollie Watkins, saved quiet for a lot of the primary half, fail to double the benefit when he dragged his shot broad earlier than half-time.

However the equaliser early within the second half ignited Spurs, who emerged from the break with renewed intent whereas stopping Villa touchdown any makes an attempt heading in the right direction.

Captain Son performed a key position on his return from a two-game injury-enforced absence, however the South Korea ahead was visibly shocked to be substituted only some minutes after helping Johnson’s leveller.

That allowed Solanke to take centre stage, the 27-year-old displaying his class significantly along with his first, and Postecoglou will hope his big-money addition can proceed to construct confidence to assist his staff’s seek for consistency.

“There may be nice perception in these gamers. We follow our ideas and after we do this we’re exhausting to cease,” mentioned Postecoglou.

“I felt the momentum was going our means, we knew we might end sturdy and if we upped it a few gears, like we are able to, we knew we might be exhausting to cease.”

It ended with a Bukayo Saka cross straight into the arms of Nick Pope. A floated, telegraphed supply despatched extra in hope than expectation, which summed up an Arsenal efficiency missing creativeness and perception.

The clock learn 96 minutes as Newcastle defended their field and the Gallowgate Finish demanded to listen to the ultimate whistle. It had the look and theatrics of a title challenger barging down the door within the seek for an equaliser, but it surely didn’t have that really feel.

The largest concern for Arsenal is not only that the 1-0 defeat leaves them fourth (and presumably as little as sixth by Sunday night), seven factors behind Liverpool after 10 video games. It’s that Arsenal have returned to the risk-averse strategy that made a lot of the primary half of final season so stale.

The nearer Arsenal have gotten to Manchester Metropolis, the extra Mikel Arteta has sought to squeeze the margin for error. Eradicating the bandwidth for spontaneity, condensing the sport into fewer huge moments and decreasing huge video games to low-xG affairs has turn out to be the recipe for visits to locations like St James’ Park.

The meanest defence and essentially the most suffocating press was the bedrock of final season’s title problem. It was largely efficient, albeit a grind reasonably than glamorous, however Arsenal moved away from that firstly of the calendar yr, rising from a poor run over Christmas as a workforce unburdened. The improved freedom noticed them rating 31 objectives in seven video games they usually have been rampant for an prolonged interval.

The primary 10 video games of this season, whether or not by chance or design, has seen a gradual return to a extra attritional strategy. With solidity prioritised, it has seen Arsenal evolve right into a purposeful workforce in possession that hardly ever surprises, in comparison with the expansive type that initially turned them into title challengers in 2022-23.

The issue with a restrictive strategy is that in the event you go behind it’s troublesome to loosen the reins, notably in case your midfield has been composed to compete reasonably than management. Arsenal have discovered this out the onerous means, having fallen 1-0 behind in 4 of their final six Premier League video games, as many as their earlier 31.

Saturday’s loss — the primary time they’ve misplaced consecutive video games at St James’ since a run of three between 1994 and 1996 — was a repeat of the failure a yr in the past. Solely this time, there was no controversy over Newcastle’s purpose to distract from Arsenal’s deficiencies.

Final November’s defeat was the second-lowest xG of any Arsenal recreation final season and the one time in 38 video games that they’d fewer than two pictures on track in a recreation. They repeated that undesirable feat on Saturday with solely a single shot testing Pope.

In Martin Odegaard’s absence, the midfield has turn out to be an unproductive zone. Mikel Merino seemed caught between three positions, as did Leandro Trossard. No participant was connecting the completely different sections of the workforce.

It was the seventh recreation from 10 that Arsenal did not create over 1.0 anticipated objectives (xG) from open play. A big a part of their open-play whole of 0.65 xG at Newcastle got here from Declan Rice’s headed miss within the 93rd minute, the one second within the recreation that Arsenal created a clear-cut probability outdoors of dead-ball conditions.

And that’s the concern for Arsenal. The one time Newcastle and the house crowd appeared to sense imminent hazard was when Arsenal had a nook or a free kick.

Creating so many goalscoring alternatives from set items could be a superpower. It has been for Arsenal on many events, notably in breaking the impasse or getting them stage, however there’s a hazard that it begins to compensate for an absence of probability creation.

Arsenal have solely registered 37 pictures (7.4 per recreation) on the highway this season, the second-lowest whole behind Brentford. They’ve had a really robust schedule up to now having travelled to Aston Villa, Manchester Metropolis, Tottenham, Bournemouth and Newcastle however these numbers nonetheless paint an image of their attacking ambitions.

The absence of Odegaard, whose return from ankle ligament harm is imminent, was initially overcome by Arteta exhibiting flexibility in his alternative of form however he has turn out to be conspicuous by his absence.

It’s troublesome to flee the conclusion that Arsenal’s recreation is over-reliant on the Norwegian, with 17-year-old Ethan Nwaneri the one related sort of participant within the squad.

“Yeah, we don’t have him. We are able to talk about that each one day lengthy,” stated Arteta after Saturday’s recreation.

“We haven’t had him for the final 4 or six weeks and we don’t have him but. However now we have many different solutions which were very efficient. Right now we have to take a look at ourselves and congratulate Newcastle and transfer on.”

They have been struggling to create probabilities within the early months of final season, too, however the essential distinction is that they have been capable of fall again on the watertight defence.

Whereas Newcastle have been commonly profitable duels and reduce by way of Arsenal’s midfield 4 or 5 occasions within the first half, which can have been an unsettling sight for Arteta.

“You already know the sport they wish to play. It’s clear,” stated Arteta of Newcastle.

“You get dragged into that type of recreation too usually and we weren’t adequate and didn’t have sufficient solutions to get out of that continually, particularly to create the risk that we wanted and mentioned.”

Is it a case of Arsenal being so distracted by the thought of profitable the battle that their technical capacity suffers consequently? Arsenal seemed in determined want of a participant taking cost and bringing some course to their play.

“It’s simpler to say it than to get it achieved,” stated Arteta. “We knew and we respect that each opponent has its traits and qualities. They’re superb at what they do.”

Arteta tried to realize management. He launched Oleksandr Zinchenko as an inverted full-back, moved Thomas Partey from right-back into midfield and gave Ethan Nwaneri greater than half an hour. He even threw on Jorginho within the 86th minute in a bid to seek out some rhythm but it surely by no means got here.

Arsenal at the moment are winless of their final three Premier League video games. The two-0 loss to Bournemouth had the caveat of William Saliba’s purple card and the 2-2 draw with Liverpool was towards a title rival.

It’s too early for panic however, no matter context, Arsenal discover themselves in a rut. Two seasons in the past they may not untangle themselves from a defensive decline that set in in the course of the run-in, whereas final season it was a run of 5 video games in December that proved expensive.

Arsenal are too robust and constant a workforce to fade away however they must be bolder and revive the spark of their attacking play if they’re to stop this dangerous run from changing into terminal.

Local weather activists in Scotland have carried out a collection of actions towards SUV automobiles, saying they’re performing in solidarity with the victims of the Valencia floods.

The Tyre Extinguishers have known as on their supporters to take actions towards SUV automobiles of their areas, after members of the group in Edinburgh stencilled the edges of focused autos on Sunday evening with the phrases: “These automobiles kill Valencians.”

At the least 214 individuals have been reported killed in Valencia and surrounding areas after unprecedented rainfall final week induced flooding that swept away bridges, automobiles and streetlights. World heating made the heavy rainfall about 12% heavier and twice as possible, in response to an preliminary estimate carried out by scientists from World Climate Attribution.

The flooding has been described because the worst pure catastrophe in latest Spanish historical past.

Posting photos of the Edinburgh actions on their account on X, the Tyre Extinguishers mentioned: “SUVs focused in solidarity with Valencia local weather victims.

“Outraged Edinburgh residents took motion final evening highlighting SUV’s [sic] disproportionate function in inflicting catastrophic climate, like that which has killed over 200 in Spain.

“If SUVs have been a rustic they’d be the fifth largest world polluter. There have been over 360m SUVs on world roads in 2023, producing 1bn tonnes of CO2, up 10% on 2022. Consequently, international oil consumption rose by 600,000 barrels/day, greater than 1 / 4 of whole oil demand progress.

“Protestors defaced SUVs all through Edinburgh’s New City, and left windscreens with photographs of victims like José Castillejo, 28, who died within the Valencia floods, and Nuria Sajjad and Selena Lau, who have been killed final 12 months when an out-of-control Land Rover hit their main faculty.

“We name on all TX teams to take solidarity actions on behalf of local weather victims. We gained’t cease till these loss of life machines are off our roads.”

The Tyre Extinguishers quoted an activist named as Priya, who was mentioned to have taken half within the Edinburgh actions, as saying: “We hit 16 automobiles final evening, and extra deliberate … Not sufficient is being carried out to focus on that disasters like Valencia have human causes. This isn’t a pure catastrophe, it’s a catastrophe fuelled by our governments being enslaved by the fossil gas and automobile lobbies.

“We’d like emergency motion now to convey an finish to SUV emissions, and if governments don’t do it, then it’s as much as residents to do it for them.”

Police Scotland was unable to offer any details about whether or not the incidents had been reported or an investigation was underneath manner with out extra particular particulars of the areas of the focused autos.

Water-soluble spray chalk was used to deface the automobiles, the Guardian has been advised.

I have stated it earlier than, however I’ll say it once more: what a paucity of content material there could be on this planet, not to mention the tv schedules, if there have been no violence by males in opposition to girls. What an unrecognisable place it will be; how unimaginable to us all.

Till I Kill You is a drama that greater than any of the lots of, presumably 1000’s, of representations I’ve seen over time provides some sense of the fathomless injury finished and the power required by survivors to beat their experiences – by which I imply discover some peace, some option to stay their irreparably modified lives thereafter.

Its 4 relentlessly confrontational components are based mostly on the e book Residing With a Serial Killer, an account by Delia Balmer of surviving repeated bodily and sexual assaults – one among which practically killed her – by her boyfriend John Sweeney. He confesses to the homicide of 1 ex-girlfriend whereas he has Delia held hostage; when the police ultimately arrest him, he’s convicted of two and suspected of no less than three others.

Anna Maxwell Martin performs Delia, a fiercely impartial free spirit, with not one of the hippy-ish softness which will suggest. She is an acquired style – and few of her colleagues on the hospital the place she works as an company nurse have been inclined to accumulate it. She is socially awkward, frank to the purpose of rudeness and uncompromising in her dealings with individuals.

These individuals embody, till he turns horribly violent, the person she meets in a pub and with whom she begins, in her idiosyncratic and uncompromising approach, to have a relationship. From there, we start the story of his savagery, police incompetence and her psychological and bodily survival that the lengthy pursuit of justice does so little to help.

In lots of respects, it follows what we’d name the normal trajectory of a domestic-violence drama, however in Delia’s fierceness and oddness we discover somebody who doesn’t a lot ignore crimson flags, however relatively is furiously baffled but unbowed by the illogicality of his behaviour. (“You say you’re my boyfriend, however …”) It illuminates the abuser’s techniques from a barely totally different angle.

Sweeney is performed by Shaun Evans, in a marked change of tempo from starring as a younger Morse within the genteel Endeavour. He matches what might be a career-best efficiency from Maxwell Martin: human; charming at first, however more and more monstrous thereafter; altogether terrifying. A fellow free spirit, however one bent solely on hurt.

We go away the primary narrative sometimes to observe the sluggish progress of a lacking individuals case in Amsterdam. A girl referred to as Melissa has disappeared. Regardless of her father’s continued pushing of the police, it’s not till a dismembered physique is recovered from a canal that anybody begins to hitch dots and DNA and observe them to a conclusion.

Till I Kill You does a uncommon and admirable job of sustaining Delia’s placing spikiness. As her traumas mount, they make her more durable, angrier and harder for sympathetic officers and the few family and friends she has to achieve. It’s a response as legitimate – and possibly as widespread in actuality – as some other, however one hardly ever depicted on display, so frightened are individuals (producers, I think) of alienating their audiences and so untrusting that viewers could be introduced to grasp something aside from the best explanations and responses.

Right here, although, the author, Nick Stevens (who, because the creator of The Pembrokeshire Murders and In Plain Sight, is turning into a specialist within the bleakest murders and murderers), the director, Julia Ford, and specifically Maxwell Martin are fearless. Watching it, you’re feeling for as soon as as if you’re being handled like an grownup in possession of real, maybe even advanced, intelligence.

Till I Kill You is a unprecedented portrait of survivors’ struggling. However there isn’t a scurrying after sensationalism. The worst episodes come to mind, not lingered on. In addition to offering a tribute to the depth of Balmer’s braveness – and by extension that of all these like her – it’s also an affidavit to the banality of evil. It insists on the important pitifulness – not pitiableness – of those males and the wants they serve. It’s a magnificent remedy of a damnable, endless topic.

Manchester Metropolis’s harm disaster proved expensive because the champions noticed a 32-game unbeaten Premier League run come to a shocking finish with a 2-1 loss at Bournemouth on Saturday, however supervisor Pep Guardiola most well-liked to not use accidents as an excuse.

The defeat dropped Metropolis to second spot, two factors behind Liverpool, who recovered to beat Brighton & Hove Albion 2-1.

“I do not know what would have occurred. I wish to let you know if these gamers [weren’t injured], we’d have received, however no person is aware of,” Guardiola informed reporters. “The blokes give all the pieces, however not sufficient to compete in opposition to that staff in that second.”

Metropolis’s loss got here on the heels of a midweek defeat at Tottenham Hotspur within the League Cup fourth spherical.

Guardiola mentioned his staff paid the worth for a scarcity of depth as Bournemouth received by objectives from Antoine Semenyo and Evanilson.

“We could not match as much as the depth,” he mentioned. “All of the conditions with the lengthy balls, we could not win it.

“And when you do not win these kind of balls to Semenyo and others, our central defenders and strikers need to defend deeper.

“Now we have gamers with rhythm and the opposite gamers have a scarcity of rhythm as a result of we couldn’t prepare as a result of accidents. However we knew it.”

On Friday Guardiola mentioned he had urged his stars to play by ache “like Rafael Nadal” and feared he may need solely 11 senior gamers match to function within the Bournemouth sport.

Metropolis have been already lacking Jack Grealish, Rodri and Oscar Bobb and in his pregame interview Guardiola mentioned Rúben Dias and John Stones have been additionally “dominated out for somewhat little bit of very long time.”

Captain Kyle Walker was one in all a number of gamers who had not been anticipated to function on Saturday however began, whereas Kevin De Bruyne was again on the bench after a prolonged harm layoff.

“Kyle in 16 days did not prepare one session with us, made an unimaginable effort,” Guardiola mentioned, including that a number of different gamers had “niggles.”

“[But] it isn’t nearly that,” the Metropolis boss added. “[Bournemouth] have been tough to play within the first half; the second half we have been a lot better.”

Walker mentioned if Metropolis had been lucky sufficient to have extra wholesome our bodies, a number of ailing gamers may need been rested.

“Most likely ideally, however we’re not in that place,” he mentioned. “We do not use that as an excuse, you must give full credit score to Bournemouth.”

Metropolis have little time to get well as they head to Lisbon to play Sporting within the Champions League on Tuesday.

“It is the schedule that we have been dealt, no excuses,” Walker added.

Bournemouth’s victory was their first over Metropolis within the south-coast membership’s historical past and had Cherries followers on the Vitality Stadium cheekily chanting: “Can we play you each week?”

“I am very happy. One factor is to beat Metropolis however one other is to play higher,” Bournemouth supervisor Andoni Iraola mentioned. “We performed with no worry, tried to press once we may and defend once we needed to.

“You recognize you must be at your finest stage [to beat a top team] and watch for them to not have their finest day.”

Van Nistelrooy has actually coaxed loads of endeavour from his gamers as he steps in till Amorim lastly succeeds the sacked Erik ten Hag, however he was unable to encourage any real high quality.

United have been snug sufficient in defence within the face of Chelsea’s menace, however there was an absence of creation and leading edge that finally meant they didn’t do sufficient to benefit victory.

Rashford’s volley was the closest they got here till Chelsea keeper Sanchez made an injudicious problem on Hojlund when the striker seemed to have misplaced management and was shifting away from aim.

The younger striker was a peripheral determine whereas Alejandro Garnacho summed up United as an entire. The Argentine was filled with tireless operating however his ending was wayward, particularly within the second half when he scuffed a transparent probability from Fernandes’ go, capturing tamely into the arms of Sanchez on the Stretford Finish.

Van Nistelrooy is clearly decided to get pleasure from his time in cost and his celebration of United’s aim was a sight to behold: leaping and operating down the touchline earlier than pumping his fists in direction of the elated supporters.

It was a present of emotion in sharp distinction to the reserved Ten Hag, the United legend’s presence receiving approval from round Previous Trafford.

United will likely be disenchanted to have misplaced the lead so rapidly, however it is a membership that understandably appears like it’s in a holding sample till the brand new period begins below Amorim after the worldwide break.

Mike Thomas, Cornwall Councillor for Helston North, mentioned he was “very unhappy certainly” on the closure.

“For Helston it’s a spot stuffed with reminiscences, going again many years,” he mentioned.

“It is a spot stuffed with deep private reminiscences and associations.

“Individuals will miss it, what else can I say, it’s going to be an absolute gap within the lifetime of the city.”

He mentioned he anticipated the knock-on impact on tourism within the city to be vital, nevertheless it was a “time to replicate and be actually happy with what Helston has hosted for thus a few years”.

Thomas, a former instructor, mentioned lots of his former college students in addition to his personal daughter had labored on the park, whereas his household held a season ticket.

He mentioned it was necessary to protect the “great Victorian village” and if there was “no probability of a restoration” then the location had “the potential to unlock” future financial improvement and jobs.
