Arsenal Post Match Thread.

Indeed, but it seems we should have lost, despite being by far the better team in both halves, and scoring twice as many goals as the team that should apparently have won.

Sometimes I'm staggered by what I read on here, its like some aren't happy with actually getting the win....

I think you must be on a wind up posting that. No-one is remotely unhappy that we won, nor is anyone saying we should not have won. In fact I predicted on here MANY times that we were going to win and of course I am delighted that we did.

Wenger should worry more about his keeper getting beat at the near post more than offside.

If i wanted pages of frames trying to prove he was offside i'd go on sky sports

We won

or MUFC Tv perhaps ?

They never give us any credit and i'm sure hoping that pep fails

I have looked at the first goal in ' superslomo" and frame by frame. He is offside - I think - by perhaps 2 maybe 3 inches. The Arsenal defenders foot is a lot more forward than it looks in real time. No linesman could pick that up and it would be wrong to flag if unsure and so close.
The second one is up to interpretation as to wether Silva had an "impact" on the goal. I have spoken to an ex ref (who remains anonymous) and he said if the shot had gone across Check it would be offside but as it was at the near post the ref is entitled to say no impact.

From my point of view its about time we had a borderline in our favour

I think Wenger is a bit of an embarrassment with his comments. The first goal is ultra tight, an inch at most and if there is doubt the attacker should receive the benefit so you can't criticise that call. Same with the second the benefit of the doubt applies and Silva was not in the line of sight or close to touching the ball so correct decision. Czech did not even appeal so I don't see how wenger can claim he was impacted!

A total embarrassment. He's always been like this though, with his walking off refusing to shake hands and other such petulance. He's a grade one twat and lots of gooners have realised that too.

On my way back to Devon, apart from the result and the fight shown the best part was the South stand singing "one nil to the Arsenal". Only downside is its £3.30 a pint in Mother Macs but its still better than any W/spoons type shitholes.
Great day worth the journey.

3.30 in Mother Macs? No wonder I never put my hand in my pocket.

Well said that man. They just fooking hate us, moan and groan every time we get a result like this. They never just say City were unplayable at times in that second half especially.

I have no clue what that means. Sane was too far advanced. The linesman is not sure and therefore makes the correct call to not give offside. What's so hard to understand?

Meaning his shoe lace must've been offside, but you carry on saying he was and it matters not IMO your trying taking the gloss of a well executed goal for some reason if not wumming...
