​Neville: Arsenal as bad as I've seen them

Manchester United legend Gary Neville believes that Arsenal's first half effort against Tottenham was as bad as he has seen them perform.

The Gunners went behind to Harry Kane's goal in the first half but rallied in the later stages of the game and managed to grab a draw thanks to the Kieran Gibbs' goal.

"From Arsenal's point of view, it's as bad as I've seen them, in terms of being disjointed, in such a big game," Neville said on Sky Sports.

"They finished really strongly, but the first half was the first time I've seen the midfield two look like I thought they might be in the Premier League, which is overrun and lacking in power.

"It was so difficult for Cazorla in particular, who was hauled off at half-time, they say he was feeling unwell. Well, I have a feeling there was case for taking him off even if he wasn't unwell, because Tottenham were brilliant. They got back into the game, though, and I think both managers can be happy for different reasons."
