Refreshing to see lower league teams putting up a fight against top premier league clubs and keeping the score under 4-0…
 
I’m glad Arsenal won. It gives us a chance to kick start a trilogy of games with a home match and hopefully put some doubts in their minds that they’re quite at the level needed to compete as equals with the very best. Obviously we’d have had more chance of beating Oxford. But I’d prefer us taking our chances against Arsenal than them sitting with their feet up watching a bunch of lower league cloggers kick lumps out of us.

On a different front, I really don’t understand the TV companies obsession with having pundits with a connection to one of the clubs playing. If I was the one making the bookings, I’d do the complete opposite and actively avoid that and go for pundits who are likely to be completely neutral.

At least be equal with both, don’t want to imagine the jizzfest from them following that game.
 
It’s not, after the Villa match ithe rule was changed as Rodri came from behind Mings in an offside position and won the ball. The Salah goal on Saturday was allowed under the same rule as the Harry Kane penalty going back to 2018 v the Dippers where he won a penalty from an offside position but Loveren attempted to play the ball. There’s been many instances between then and now. We had this discussion on here last year.


Rodri didnt win the ball im afraid. Watch it again. Mings plays it then rodri gets involved

Still below which shows this clearly
