The first north London derby ended in a draw and fans wasted no time in letting Twitter know exactly how they felt about it.
Twitter is always a lively place after any Arsenal game, never moreso when they’ve just played that lot from up the road.
A game Arsenal could have won or thrown away, it was far from what I was expecting from a side that was riding high. But, the important thing is that we didn’t lose and you can’t help but feel that Arsenal sides in previous seasons would have capitulated.
That we didn’t get our passing game going properly was frustrating but on the day it was more our clinical finishing in front of goal that deserted us.
It’s disappointing, but it’s not the end of the world and with City drawing against Boro, not as bad as it could have been.
Here are the best/worst/most informative tweets after the game:
Arsenal have dropped seven points at home in six games already.

Subs didn't help us at all. We were better before they came on

Wenger when asked if the Arsenal goal was offside: "No one forced Kevin Wimmer to head the ball into his own net"

Howard Webb: Alexis wasn't offside. He doesn’t commit any offside offence, He doesn’t have an impact on Wimmer’s ability to play the ball. pic.twitter.com/Bp3qx2RjtJ

"spurs scored twice and still didn't manage to beat arsenal" LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL I'm still laughing

Yes Arsenal were poor.
Yet still created great chances… Iwobi easy chance, Walcott hits post, Xhaka close. Etc.
As I said, frustrating!— Carl Bövis ⚽ (@CarlBovis_AFC) November 6, 2016
Mauricio Pochettino is the first Spurs manager in history to go unbeaten in their first five league games against Arsenal. #COYS pic.twitter.com/pLCZcMZB7r

That hardly seems like something to brag about if you ask me.
