Match Thread | Man City vs. Arsenal (31/03/24)

[WallyA]

Gvardiol needs crossing lessons if Pep wants to continue this wide fullback thing.

 

[RobinHood]

How many fouls can you commit without a booking?

5 against us, 1 against all others.

 

[kanovic]

Neither team look like they want this.

Mental.

Seems to me we want it but Arsenal playing park the bus

 

[Alexia_Ko]

Lewis should have continued running for that ball, we aren't going to get anything from Taylor

 

[hertsblue]

not calling out refs in media get you this reffing exactly, thats down to Pep

imagine an away team doing this on anfield without multiple yellows...

Chelsea got 4 in the first half alone there but its correct, this cheat shouldn’t be allowed anywhere near us but the club do fuck all in calling him out so it continues

 

[ThreesKompany]

Seems their whole plan was to make this a 45 minute game. Time wasting. Tactical pressing. Low block. Didn't want what happened last year and it's worked for them.

 

[wolviedinho]

Cheap corners

 

[I'm With Stupid]

7 fouls without a yellow now. And over half of them have been blatant.

 

[Don Karleone]

How many fouls can you commit without a booking?

Depends. If you're playing us it seems like it's half a dozen

 

[Dialog]

Arsenal playing like thugs and the ref helping them

 

[vicblueman]

what an awful 1st half

 

[Fordyboy46]

We look fucked, no intensity about us whatsoever

 

[yankblue]

"And Rice pulls Haaland down from behind while Gabriel goes in 2 footed on him... he's rolling around in pain ... and Taylor gives the Arsenal players their 97th final warning"

 

[colorado blue]

There are a lot of bad refs but anyone worse than Taylor?

 

[Blu1]

This ref is nuts

 

[RobinHood]

Bollocks. Not a foul just because he stays down.

 

[Bluemoon115]

"And Rice pulls Haaland down from behind while Gabriel goes in 2 footed on him... he's rolling around in pain ... and Taylor gives the Arsenal players their 97th final warning"

Meanwhile Haaland is booked for time wasting.

 

[vicblueman]

Taylor is a fuckin idiot

 

[Josh_D]

There are a lot of bad refs but anyone worse than Taylor?

Funny thing is, there are

 

[paulchapo]

In addition to getting away with half a dozen possible yellow cards, Arsenal are now time wasting.

They're rope a doping us. They know we will start pushing further up and they will hit us on the break.
