Meanwhile, Arsenal move with clearer rhythm under Arteta. Stability like that tilts the balance when Spurs face chaos while rebuilding. Noise remains around the hiring. Some fans have pushed back as they are upset by De Zerbi’s past remarks on Mason Greenwood.
Unity helps a fresh start particularly under heavy expectations. Yet here, Tottenham start a new project amidst curiosity, hesitation and distractions beyond the pitch. As a result, Arsenal may sense an opening that they can use to move even further ahead of Tottenham.
