New screen saver. Could you ask him to change the Arsenal badge to sneaky writing letter cunts?

We have wrecked his dreams of obtaining the top4 trophy. The piss boiling is beautiful.
 
I'm still buzzing off this result. It was better than any 7-0 for a number of reasons. One everyone feared the worst, myself included. Three games in six days for us against a young well rested Arsenal side in top form. Two, in the first half and lucky to be only one goal down those fears looked to be coming true. Three everyone wanted us to lose. The never guilty and Chelsea in particular and all their arse kissing media chums. Four Arsenal and their shit self entitled fans lost their heads as we got back into the game. Five, there was controversy around our penalty ( although it was nailed on) that riled them up even more. Six we scored a late, late winner that completely crushed them. Even better and the icing on the cake, Rodri gave it to them, right in their snarling crying faces. Just fucking wonderful.

They took that defeat really,really, badly.

One epic rant i replied.

"You played a team that was dead on its feet after 3 games in 6 days, and you still fucking lost "

Was beautiful.

It was their reality check that's why they took it so hard. On top form, catching us when we were knackered, this was going to be their day. To prove to the world the old Arsenal were back, contenders once more. Only it wasn't and they're not. Take it, take it you entitled whining letter writing wankers!!!
 
The application of VAR still isn't perfect but has definitely improved this season. It's making a positive difference this season.

Even the match commentators agreed that the penalty decisions were correct at the time and then gradually changed their opinions as the situation of the match developed. This paved the way for BT Sport and most of the press to make the whole narrative about VAR when actually every decision was correct. In the first half, Mcmanaman and Keown both said that the "clear and obvious" rule is a good thing as it allows the referee more control over the game. Then by the second half their views had miraculously changed.

Watching the replay, it's obvious that Odegaard planted his foot into Ederson's path in order to instigate the contact. Odegaard knows his best bet is to look for a pen at that stage. Ederson's foot is about to take the ball cleanly before Odegaard's foot goes in front of the ball as he does so. Ederson then makes contact with the ball and player at the same time.

As for the Silva penalty, there's contact but he does perhaps make the most of the first challenge as most players would but the clincher was the shirt pull which was "clear and obvious." Without the shirt pull it would probably not have been given as a pen.

There's an obvious distinction between both incidents which the commentators noted at the time but the coverage has chosen to ignore since in order to suit their chosen narrative.
