Arsenal (H) | PL | Post-match Thread

Just home, some tea in my belly and a chance to reflect.

That performance (again) is exactly why arsenal wont win the league.
The time wasting started at 1-1. They once again came for a point and quite simply, the top teams dont do that.
The top teams come and bully you in your own back yard.

The cheating and time wasting is so small time and i cant believe lego head is still getting away with the con of telling his goaly to go down so he can have a sideline con-flab.
He used to do it all the time with ramsdale, have him pretending he had sommat in his eye.

So im afraid arsenal got whay they deserved. A point, when we were there for the taking
 
I texted my ERO at 1-2 that if the score remained till the final whistle it would have been the ugliest, foulest win by any team I've seen at the Etihad. They clearly targeted Rodril - less than twenty seconds and that dirty bastard Havertz floors him. And when are refs gonna whistle for a pen for the likes of Haaland and co being wrestled at every corner. Tackling with yer hands and arms is a penal offence, you whistling wankers. Yer can bet yer bottom dollar had we had two hands round Gabriel to defend their corner The Bottler would not have bottled an Arse pen.

And on the way home I just flicked on R5 and Sutton is yappin' on about Jezzer kickin' the ball away. Trossard was carded the second time for delaying the restart. There was no way Doku delayed the restart compared to the delay nigh on every Arse player managed, not least the time wasting fucker in the net. Why he was not booked for 'delaying the restart' at every fuckin' goalkick I don't know. We got to one point that a Dipper or Rag title would be preferable to these thugs winning it.

There was an Arse fan phoned in who appeared cockahoop, not as buoyant as he would have been had it stayed at 1-2, but he mentioned Pep kicking his chair and that Islington's best had 'put a dint in'! A dint? Much like last season's dint, eh?

I thought they deserved less than a point!
 
The only positive I will offer Arsenal is props to their defense otherwise
I'm hating Arsenal more than ever.

That start was 100% scripted and it was intended to target our most pivotal player... that continued with Partey-foul injuring him in the box.

I am not one to go crying conspiracy when we lose or are down BUT the lack of no calls that benefitted them was laughable. Oliver was a total limp cock today and unfortunately I feel we've read that book before in games he's officiated.

Back to the pathetic farce that is Arsensal's favored brown arts approach to football--- The time wasting bullshit needs to be addressed. Lego head literally held a ball late on as well.

You can't play an entire half + of football with the calibre of cutlery we have in our side and not cast some blame on us. I was nauseous at our attack plan the entire 2nd half. We rarely ever forayed down the flanks to the byline and the number of desperate 20+ yard attempts from Dias alone was a total waste of a several minutes long build up.

Scoring is easier said than done vs. this lot but seeing the shot from Stones careen in i couldn't help but hold my breath for a minute directly after it went in.

All in all and this is no anti Kova dig... Rodri stays in the whole match we win 3-1 sans the Trossard tossing.
KDB in late maybe unlocks that defense but Haaland the majority of the 2nd half was well accounted for by them.

Hard to be happy with a draw but vs. them it is acceptable.

For those who complain about inconsistency in English refereeing,I’m here to tell you you’re wrong. Both the men’s and women’s teams got done by poor refereeing decisions today. That’s consistent.

That arse equaliser in the WSL game was ridiculous. As bad a decision I’ve seen in a long time. First the foul not given then an arse player stopping our player getting up. And they go and stroll up to goal and score. Absolute joke.
 
And of course this prick has to put in his worthless opinion.

Oh the irony, a shithouse whining that a team of shithouses have been robbed. More comedy gold from the bedroom residing wanker.

I'd like to think that if the positions were reversed, and we were 2-1 up and down to 10 men, we'd be more adventurous than those tarquin twats.

But you've got to ask some fundamental questions of Pep and his staff. Do we not practice drills when teams implement a low block? Fortunately the Grealish & Stones subs paid off but all we seemed to do was pass the ball from side to side. When Savinho had the ball in the wide area, there was no one running into the space behind the full back, and he was forced to play it back inside. There's so little creativity when your midfield is Gundogan, Kovacic and Bernardo. Foden should have been on much earlier.

And how come Arsenal appear to have a plan for corners and can execute it, when it's just hit and hope from us?

Pep would be trying to score a third as well as being sensible defending and we would not be just hoofing the ball out for throwins and sitting down on the floor pretending to be injured.

When he was at Barça as a manager, someone was sent off for Barça in the Bernebeu and you wouldn’t have even noticed. Barça played exactly the same as they would with XI men and comfortably won the game.

For footballing teams, nothing massively changes with a man being sent off if you make all situations with the ball 3v3 in small areas of the pitch. Arsenal just made it a flat back 6 and three in front in an entire half of football.

If Pep managed Arsenal today, they’d have won 1-3.
