His Mum died.
How do the referees get away with such incompetence each week?
The display last night was appalling. He booked Bellerin early on for a late tackle (i dont actually have an issue with that) yet when a Southampton player took out saka late, nothing. Where is the consistency ?
Also, how the fuck can he book Pepe for being slow to leave the pitch (when he wasn’t even substituted) but the game couldn’t restart as a player was injured & receiving treatment?
we get inconsistency with yellow cards all the time - there's an unwritten rule that they have to be given against Arsenal as much as possible
in particular the Pepe thing was a total joke and the club should appeal it
I didnt think you could appeal yellow cards?
1 Arsenal foul = 10 non-Arsenal fouls. That's how it goes.
I also think of the red cards Xhaka and Luiz have had in the past for 'deliberate' fouls, but don't think I have ever seen another team punished for this. Likewise with the foul throws, seems to be only us getting pulled up on it.
i doubt that is really the case. it would be interesting to see a study over ten years to see on average fouls to yellow card ratios.
it is probably just we notice the things that happen to and against arsenal rather than other teams.
very result yesterday, finally we conceded first and won... that makes a pleasant change. ESR plays and we win. even pepe didn't look a chump. we do have a core of good young and actually domestic players we can build a team around. Leno, Tierney, Holding, Saka, ESR, Martinelli... players who could with us for 10 years. Still not convinced by Arteta but at least after being forced to pick the youngsters he is continuing to play the youngsters.
no, the fact is we have one of the worst disclinary records of any club in the PL, yet we are in no way a 'dirty' team, especially compared with the likes of spuds, burnley, brighton etc who get off far more lightly with refs
we get punished for EVERYTHING, other teams don't
ah, ok, that's sad
He just posted on instagram saying his mum was ill but she hasn’t died. She seems to be recovery and sounds like he is on his way back to ARsenal so expect hell be available for United
