Arsenal (h) Post Match Thread

Start sharpening those studs Zabba.

It was his fuck up that led to the corner for there equaliser....

He’s a good defender but still susceptible to the odd brain fart

Seems to Be a common theme with our defenders this season.

LA have no chance.

C'mon the Hammers. In fact, if they don't get a point at least, can we ban @BlueHammer85 from posting shite albums of the day for a week?

I know... I just ****ing hate the Patriots.

In the short time I have lived here I’ve been subjected to hundreds of attempts to get me interested in American football (no interest at all) and the Patriots, specifically. But I have quickly learned they’re the Rags of handegg, Tom Brady is the equivalent of Scholes, and Belichick is the American red nose.

I just want them and Liverpool to lose so I don’t have to hear it from their **** fans for the next few weeks.

Arsenal fans kicking off inside the ground, and by the looks of the dibble on horseback they may well have been at it outside as well. Sore losers that lot.

You'd have thought they'd be used to it by now.

Great result, showed character and composure to keep playing our way after their goal. Could have been more, their keeper had a good one and a top 6 side gets sent packing from the etihad lucky to have only lost by a couple. No complaints from me though, we were faster and more aggressive than the last game and the desire was clear.

One down, next up everton and another must win.

Baffled though by the gundogan yellow in particular, all I can think is that he must reckon that ilkay ran into him on purpose to get the penalty. Which would be odd as the defender clearly stepped into ilkay to initiate a contact and ilkay had also already played a weight perfect ball to take him beyond the defender. Ok if he thinks that it is a coming together rather than a clear penalty, or even that old chestnut of 'not enough contact for a penalty' but to suggest ilkay was committing the offence just doesn't stack up. A few odd ones from Atkinson today but that one was the strangest for me.

Oh, and arsenal fans having tantrum in the stands is always a funny sight. Hold me back, hold me back! No seriously Crispin, do hold me back, and make sure the GoPro captures my mean side!

Has anyone mentioned the shocker of a decision from Atkinson when aguero was pulled back how has he not given that,also gundogan being booked for being shoved over in the box,what do the refs actually see when these incidents happen staggering..

Both appalling decisions. I don’t buy that shit about being too early in the game a penalty is a penalty. I’m not sure what he was thinking when we gave Gundogan a yellow - I doubt he even saw it and made the wrong assumption.

I noticed a lot of their players going down very easily and getting free kicks - throughout the first half half in particular

Great result today. There is one thing today was the effort can't be questioned especially Sergio, bernardo and de bruyne. Unbelievable running all over the pitch. As of now we're still in with a chance. Let's hope Manuel can help us tomorrow.
Come on you blues!

 

[NorCalBlue]

Before last season always though he was one of the better ones , but some of his decisions last season and today have been awful.

I suspect if he'd seen the ball hit Aguero's arm, he'd have disallowed the third, even though it was clearly accidental.

Walker is concerning me, he really is!

 

[City Raider]

I would like to know that too

This?

Opta Joe: 0 - Arsenal failed to attempt a single shot in the second half against Man City; the first time they've failed to have a shot in a half of Premier League football since May 2015 vs Man Utd (first half). Limp. #MCIARS
