What was daft about the sending off? He was on a yellow card and deliberately kicked the ball away to waste time. This didn't ruin the game, the timewasting did. Don't you think enough time was wasted? Players should be booked for this every single time and also when they refuse to retreat ten yards at free kicks. Never seen these days.

The issue is the inconsistency from the refs. Last season at the Emirates Kovacic commits 2 ankle breakers, no red card as ref felt it would ruin a game of such magnitude. Yet the ref feels it's OK to ruin an equally momentous match this time around for something far more trivial than what Kovacic did.

Absolutely doesn't mean Arsenal would have won the match if they'd stayed at 11 but we'd have seen a far more exciting 2nd half and in some ways it may have suited City better as they'd have been able to counter and find spaces.

We didn’t win the league before Arsenal. They won the league 6 years before we did.

We did win our first major trophy 26 years before them and a European trophy 24 years before them though.

You forgot to mention George Graham's bungs.
Yet another example of their class and tradition.

I’d forgotten all about that!

Hypocrite Arsene Wenger spending Danny Fiszmans Blood Diamond Money before cry arsing about "Financial Doping" when someone else received investment.

Ankle breakers? And how many ankles were broken? How many players were stretchered off with a broken ankle? How many of those players played on? Correct.....both players continued, no substitutions. You do talk shite. You've excelled yourself there mate.
In the same game Jorginho should have been off because he escaped a cast iron yellow for a blatant pull back on Rico Lewis five yards outside the box and was later yellow carded. Should he have gone? Again, nothing to see here because it doesn't fit the narrative. Just fuck off mate because you are becoming tedious.

How many times do those two shithouses Havertz and Martinelli make a back for players to go over? That's a red card in rugby mate. They are genuine neck breakers so lets move on quickly eh?

You appear to have disappeared. No doubt you are replaying the match on you tube. When you find it, you can return and apologise to me. I'm not too big to accept apologies.

Looks like Odegaard is out until December at the earliest as he had a setback in his recovery. Saka is travelling back to Arsenal today - no update on his injury but it didn't look too serious

We know the score with Saka. To be honest this being a City forum we couldn't give two shits about Odegaard (no film in his camera?), we are more concerned with Rodri, Ake, De Bruyne and Bobb. All much more serious injuries with considerable time out.
Before this season Odegaard had missed six premier league games in three seasons, whether by injury or rotation. SIX out of ONE HUNDRED AND FOURTEEN..............and you're doing an impression of Arsehole Whinger.
