If they wanted to give it us, why didn't they give us one of those pen calls on VAR? Why didn't they call Brentford's offside goal as you know offside on VAR the other week? Why did VAR wrongfully rule out Martinelli's goal against Liverpool? Or Trossard's goal the other week. The conspirators aren't doing a very good job if you ask me.

Maybe just maybe the ref added on extra time for a Bournemouth player rolling on the floor for 2 minutes after extra time started and them time wasting with substitutions and in every other way throughout the match.

Oh and for the record Arteta asked for 7minutes of extra time and then asked for another 3 for time wasting. They constantly time wasted and constantly pretended to be injured all game long.

Because ermmm they were no where near a pen, ball booted at someone is not a pen = correct decision

Brentford had a dubious one chalked off before and we deservedly on top...remember? ...no crying from them they rolled up their sleeves and honestly played better than you. As we have seen at your place you are not some great team, you have fighting spirit which is commendable, great attitude for dubious 97 or 98 min win...but although you will probably pip the league you are not a great team, a good one yes. As for us, we have lost our way a bit as we have not addressed the issue in CM of ageing and slower players, whilst we were in control v Newcastle despite meeja shite, we still got exposed there a bit and this will cost us this season (still a third left!). I think we will lose a couple more...but possibly will turn up v you. Oh and Arteta now is sadly turning into a bit of a soft arse prick.. still want you lot to scrape it, the other contenders if we don't get it well.....

Are you a set-in-stone top 4 club and title chaser ? A cup team maybe, but not a title for 20 years, a generation of being shit and selling all your best players means your not a top 4 team, that's why I feel you are Leicester City shock leaders, But City and Liverpool will back with even more power next season so Arsenal have to get over the line this season because if you don't then the wheel could come off,

Arsenal is not this so-called major team anymore and its why its a shock your leading the league, I had City Liverpool Chelsea United in the top 4 places before the season started, then Spurs and Newcastle before Arsenal, if you asked the football world, and media the same question at the start of the season I would bet 99% would have given the same answers,

So don't come on here giving it the billy big bollocks about being a Big Club because you have not been for many years now, Is it a one-season wonder Leicester City Yes, But win the title and be a top 4 club for the next 5 to 10 seasons I Don't see it, I can Guarantee Manchester City Liverpool Chelsea United Even Newcastle will be the major teams next season and Arsenal will find it hard going,

Sorry mate, just catching up with this. Well up until 4 or 5 years ago we were a died in the wool top 4 club, was it 20 seasons of qualifying for the Champions League or something like that? So yeah we've had a poor 4 or 5 years league wise where we've dropped out the top 4 but it's a lot different to Leicester who had never even qualified for the top 4 and haven't since.
What were they, 5000-1 to win the league, and what were we at the start of this season, 50-1?

I'm not coming on giving it Billy Big Bollocks now we are winning, I've been on this site for years, and we've been shite for a lot of that time and took the hits that come with it. I've been respectful as I would expect any fan from another side to be, and I think I've been respectful even this season even now we are having a good season, I've always been a cautious guy, and because of that I still don't think we will win the league.

My point was always questioning about Liverpool going forward, and not yourselves as I never question if you will be up there now, I just take that as a given. And as per usual my timing was impeccable as the game after I questioned them they go on to hump Utd 7-0 to perhaps back up your point and slam me into the mud a bit! :-)

I hate Liverpool big time, but also have respect for what they do and how good they are,

about 2 or 3 weeks ago I watched them play and they were back to their old self, the press, the speed, the chances, it looked good, only down to them was the league table and the points gap to a top 4 place and could they get back in the race, Now look at them, it's not will they be top 4 team, its when, Even United could find them self in the fight for a top 4 place with Liverpool and Newcastle,

I still feel Arsenal is close to winning the title and the games at Anfield and at the Etihad will be the games that sort out the winner, after yesterday's Liverpool thumping of united they will be hard to beat Liverpool at Anfield,
Their press and tempo at Anfield is not easy to play against in the style that city and arsenal like to play,
they are all over teams playing out from the back and make you look daft at times,

Also, You get nothing at Anfield? the match officials and VAR are so behind Liverpool, you have to be 100% to take anything away from there when Liverpool needs the points,

Going forward depends on the here and now for Arsenal, if they get over the line then they can build something,
but slip up and don't win the title it could be ugly from the fans, then the pressure will defo mount up on the manager and players next season and you will need a flying start,

look whoever wins the title will be well-deserved, if Arsenal gets over the line then I will be the first to say well done, even if you don't and manchester city pip you, our fans are not glory hunters and like to rub it in your face, we will say well played unlucky you put up an amazing fight lets go again next season,
