David Hytner was at the Emirates tonight. Here’s his verdict. Thanks for reading this MBM. Nighty night.

Kieran McKenna speaks to Amazon. “It was a difficult first 20 minutes … we got pinned in by a good side … but after that we grew into the game well … in the second half we made it a much more even game … we got in good positions but didn’t have the quality to turn positions into chances … we weren’t quite able to turn it into a big chance … it’s not mentality … we could have shown a little bit more belief … we were just a little bit hesitant … where we had the game on 89 minutes, we can take credit and confidence from that … it was important to have a night where we were solid … the last game was the first for a while where we were opened up … so we take confidence from that … given where Arsenal are and we are, we can take confidence from that.”
