View attachment 132842so there was 9 minutes wasted on goal kicks alone according to that. there was 13 minutes of injury time total over the two halves, rodri alone spent over 6 minutes down injured, they had at least half a dozen "injuries" from them, some genuine ones from us, add in goals, var checks, subs, set pieces, throw ins etc and we can estimate the ref miscalculated added time by at least 15 minutes. Why has there been so little made of the lack of substantial injury time?

Watching City last night and when Watford pulled a goal back with a great strike, City didn't start time wasting.

Good game management or poor ?

I think it just shows that it's not in City's mind set to fake injuries and cheat. City's game management would be to keep the ball by passing

Class, dignity & respect.....or R Teta ?

When John Stones scored our equaliser in the 99th minute on Sunday Pep did a fist pump and steadied himself in front of our bench.

Contrast that with the little man R Teta who charges around like a demented licorice allsort with its arse on fire.

Class from the master v crass from the specialist in failure !!

It also involves having a corner that lands in the perfect area for Gabriel to attack, not all teams have someone who can do that

Are you suggesting that the half assed floaters we toss in from corners won't do it?

Won’t someone think of the early leavers, they wouldn’t know when to leave.

Good shout! haha

The problem with Arteta is that he involves himself too much, he's that much of a twat he deserves little to no respect from the opposing players.

I get that and I agree he gets too involved, I just don't like us bringing ourselves down to their level.

Just a thought but perhaps the refs are being harsh on arsenal because the players and fans are constantly whining, cheating little bitches.

Don't ask silly questions. We all know the answer. (Not being flippant and it does leave a nasty taste in the mouth)
