Arsenal the bottlers, and tonight they had their own Bottler with the whistle. What a fuckin' performance right the way across the team. Would have been nice had Eddie got a 'good strong hand' to the Arse solitary shot on target, but yer can't have everything. I'd just like, whatever the score, a ref who treats fouls and yellow cards exactly the same for both teams. Rodri got booked, quite rightly, but why, five minutes later when Haarland was taken out was the Arse guy not booked. How did the pen in the first half end up as a FK for Arsenal. And when are refs gonna treat the initial foul in the same way as a retaliatory push identically. I can't help but think that Oliver, despite four goals legitimately scored, begrudges every one. I remember the look on his face when the buzz went on his wrist for a 'goal line' clearance v The Rags. He was visibly deflated.

Mind, I've just seen a Dipper play the ball with his elbow, and Kavanagh the Kunt and his mates in the VAR shed just play on - we seem to have incompetents running around on other grounds masquerading as refs.

It’s a pretty disgusting comment so a player basically goes out to main a player on purpose

Completely mate. And I actually don’t recall Murphy playing that way himself back in the day. He’s not just got a disgusting approach, he’s a hypocrite with a disgusting approach.

I’ve just seen the penalty shout.
I say shout, it’s fucking nailed on.
It’s bad enough he’s not give it, but to give the foul the other way is taking the piss.
The useless corrupt pea headed ****

So so ecstatic after that brilliant performance. Such a complete masterful display of intelligent attacking football. Kev was awesome again. Credit to Pep Guardiola for managing his game and getting him fresh for this game. Akanji outstanding job on Saka. Haaland could have had 4 but his all round play was excellent. Johnny, Johnny Stones...what can I say. Eddie as cool as you like. Can't fault anyone. I won't sleep much tonight!

What a performance! Everyone was a few levels of class above every single Arsenal player. It was honestly quite easy.

Arsenal looked scared to death of the atmosphere and our team. Their gameplan was all geared to how scared they were of us. They didn’t want to press because they were too scared of what we’d do if we passed out of it, they didn’t want to sit back as they were too scared of us pushing them back into their own box… so they kind of did nothing.

We were incredible tonight. Everyone, but especially Kevin de Bruyne. He has got to be the best player in the world; when he has the sniff of the title and he’s ‘on it’ with the title in his sights, there’s nobody who touches him.

Atmosphere was top tonight n’all. Arsenal were rattled by it. Fair play to the Gooners though, while they didn’t sing much at all for 65 minutes, we had a quiet spell and they did sing for ten minutes and didn’t fuck off en mass like United and Liverpool fans both did in their visits to the Etihad this season.

LOL!! Fuck off, you Arses...

Oof! Truth Bombs dropped...

Is he paid each time he says "I'll be real"?

Especially what they got a penalty for at their place

Dunno, but he's more 'real' than his club!

White grabbed hold of foden

Arsenal are a bunch of shithouses. They were having little pops at our players all game. Partey should have had a red card but Oliver bottled it. Jesus and Xhaka should have had yellows. In fact in the Jesus incident the ref actually booked Dias who had been fouled then pushed.
