Arsenal (H) | Post-Match Thread

Beat Arsenal 5 nil with him getting an assist now celebrating at Leeds fest. We have a huge star on our hands.

He over did it alright, he wasn’t touched! Embarrassing!

I can kind of see why it was a red because a still of it shows he’s diving in, but not a red for me as he didn’t touch him.

That comment is why there is so much moaning about referees decisions, commentators are as bad......"not a red for me" ? it's simply the rules! Fuck all to do with what you or anyone else thinks it should be!

It's not the point that "he didn't touch him". The challenge was a red card in accordance with the laws of the game. Regardless of it not being a red card "for you."

Sorry - I appreciate your opinion - but I disagree. M.O.D. pundits did too.
If that was one of our defenders, jumping in - off the ground - two footed, I wouldn't be complaining.
The decision was correct, imho.
And, what's more, Xhaka's been getting away with terrible tackles for years - yes, he's been sent off 11 or 12 times now, but, if you live by the sword, you die by it. He got what he deserved for his snidey, dangerous style of play.

Yep, it was a terrible tackle, badly executed by Xhaka in that he didn't connect fully (luckily).

2 footed, off the ground, diving in, out of control. Red all day long
 
Great result without being anywhere near our best. Tbh we went easy on Arsenal today.
Ominous for the rest of the league.
All those pissing and moaning about not caving into Levy and coughing up £160 million need to take a good look at themselves.

Bloody hell, just seen the red card… never a red.

And get up Cancelo you absolute tart, rolling around like he had a sledge hammer smashed against his leg.

At least you are fair in your judgement. Many who'd have gone crazy had we gotten a red for that were awfully quiet.

Personally, I find 2 footed tackles to be an automatic Red. I hate slide tackles in general. Even the good ones. So I'm pro red here. Even against a City player.

I'd have been like, yup, you let the blood rush to your head.

I’n just glad he got out of the way otherwise that’s a leg breaker. How that isn’t a red card is frankly mind boggling. Might have over reacted but you can’t deny it was a dangerous tackle.

Pleasing performance and result.

Arsenal were abject. Appeared completely disinterested and had absolutely no pride about how they played or how it looked.

Marble head will be getting his coat on pretty soon.

I had a mob of 8 Arsenal sat around me. They do actually speak like those bumbaclarts on Arsenal TV. Literally couldn't say 5 words without inserting a "fam" or "blud", the absolute sex toys.

Agreed......100% a red,the ref got it spot on.

The player was dangerously out of control,and couldnt have given a fuck about any potential consequence of his recklessness.

The play acting by Cancelo was a disgrace though,we slate players from other clubs for behaving in such a pathetic manner so our own should not be exempt from the same standard.
