30 mins gone, and 2 clear red cards
And? Im not defending Newcastle. If Newcastle had done something like that you'd be screaming bloody murder. At least be consistent. That challenge was easily a straight red, absolute leg breaker!
Those challenges are commonplace though
Now Romero’s was dangerous

What is it with Neville and some of the other Pundits issue with calling out incompetence from the Referees in the Premier League.:unsure:
https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/67339304
Don't get me wrong I don't support violence or threatening behaviour towards the Referees (which I know is something that can happen to Football Referees) but I don't think it's "dangerous" for Arteta or any other Manager for that matter to want better officials in the best League of the biggest Sport in the world.
I can't tell if Neville is appealing to the Snowflakes crowd, or if he is supporting what I suspect to be corruption in the Premier League? Because I wonder if he'd be so against Arteta's comments if he was managing Man Utd, and it was them that was being given unfair decisions against Newcastle.

Also every challenge from Joelinton is a foul .. he leads with his elbows, he barges into people and leaves his foot into every tackle , pulls and grabs at set pieces
Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro
It's because he knows that he can get away with it.
And foul or not, the ball was clearly out for a goal kick beforehand, how the Referee, the Linesman & VAR have all missed that is too unbelievable imo, there needs to be an investigation into that whole incident from an independent panel.

yeah, i think there is much too much frustration/outcry from players and coaches across the league. They need to settle down, and let the refs settle down too. The alterative won't be good for anyone
The Referees aren't helping themselves I feel when they sometimes miss things that Mikey from BB9 would spot.

Because everyone who comes into this thread knows for an absolute FACT, that if that challenge had been made on an Arsenal or Liverpool player you'd have posted 80 screenshots, made 50 posts about how VAR is a joke, and how "flair" players need protecting.
You have set the bar extremely high now for future violent conduct, anything you moan about that is deemed less than that career ending leg break attempt will be meaningless. You will look foolish if you complain about someone tugging a shirt of one your Arsenal or Liverpool players.
It was a clear red, anyone can see that, and you would have seen that too if Udogie tried to break say Salah's or Saka's leg in the same vein. You are the one constantly saying in this thread about the rough players and challenges. How you can not see that was a red is literally unreal to me.
As for the officials, and VAR as a whole, we all know that a bunch of primary school kids could do better. They are so bad, they misjudge so much, that it's actually got me thinking they are indeed corrupt now. If they're not corrupt then future English football is in grave danger!

I'm with Arteta's Lightbulb on this.
Plus all Arteta stated was his opinion, if someone takes what he says and escalates it into a violent scenario, then that's the individual who is to blame for clearly not getting treatment for mental issues.
I'm sick to death of the Media and sections of the public that moan about people daring to critique and demand standards within society/certain fields of entertainment, because if you dare to not watch your P & Q's you'll be accused of one of three things.
1. Some form of prejudice.
2. To use Gary Neville's term, it's "dangerous" as he is clearly insinuating that Arteta could incite a lunatic to start attacking the Referee, thus trying to shutdown any criticism of the Referee's performance during the match.
3. Think of the Referee's "Mental Health" which I think is a real low blow when I have seen people use this argument, because these people are taking an extremely serious situation that a lot of people genuinely go through, just to stop Arteta or anyone else from saying that the Referee and VAR were awful, and that Stevie Wonder would've been better (I've added that part in) Arteta isn't stupid enough to say something like that, unlike myself.:laugh:
But my point stands that using Mental Health arguments to stop critique of a Referee is really low imo, and the same goes in other fields where Celebrities and their fans try to guilt trip their detractors into not criticizing them because they've got "poor Mental Health" which is really code for "I've got a huge ego and can't handle criticism."
Society and the Media both need to have a long hard look at themselves here when it comes to critique, because imo there's a huge difference between critique and verbal abuse being aimed at someone, sadly though some people can't tell the difference between the two going by how Arteta's common sense critique is now so controversial to say.

Sometimes you do need to discredit the Referees though, or at least question them for two reasons.
1. To hopefully get them to improve
2. Corruption (which is always a possibility)
And even if you don't agree with Arteta speaking out, I think that we can both agree that Gary Neville calling Arteta's comments "dangerous" is just a tad OTT?

How is questioning incompetent Refereeing harming the game though?
In other jobs these Referees would be sacked if they performed really bad like the Referee did in the Newcastle vs Arsenal match.
Don't get me wrong I think that Arteta is a hypocrite because he didn't have Klopp's back this season when it happened to Liverpool, but I do agree with him that ultimately standards of officiating in this country needs to improve.
I mean Managers get sacked for next to nothing sometimes, yet some Referees get to officiate in the Premier League despite being consistently terrible.
The decision to award Newcastle United's winning goal against Arsenal was correct, according to the Premier League's Key Match Incidents panel.
The five-person panel, which includes three former players and/or coaches, decided there was insufficient evidence to overrule the on-field decision to award Anthony Gordon's goal.
However, the panel ruled Arsenal's Kai Havertz should have been sent off for his tackle on Sean Longstaff, while Bruno Guimaraes should also have been shown a red card for hitting Jorginho.
The panel, which also includes one representative each from the Premier League and PGMOL, reviews major incidents to assess whether the eventual rulings, including video assistant referee checks, were correct.

They're basically trying to change the rules of the game after the fact, it doesn't look good for the Premier League.

And they've got it wrong.
1. The ball was out, that's just a fact.
2. We've seen penalties be given that have had less contact than what Joelinton did in the build-up to the goal, so something doesn't add up in the Referee's decision making.
Either way the panel has chose to basically overlook both rules.

If you don't think jumping into a tackle, 2 footed, studs showing, and shin height isn't a red, then you can't be calling tackles like the one above a red card either.

Maybe Udogie’s was reckless and even dangerous but he was going for the ball
That one I just showed was just malicious and late . He knew he couldn’t get the ball
Prob angry as they were going to their second bad defeat in a few days

Yeah well you should probably be rooting for Chelsea tomorrow/later. Assuming Liverpool win, and with Arsenal's win today, a Chelsea win will help keep City off top.

Champions of Europe you will never sing that ....Citeh fans to Chelsea :facepalm:
No thoughts on that cynical tackle by Caicedo ( as usual) to stop the Doku breakaway ?
6 minutes on the clock
Ref didn’t stop the play but also didn’t even have a word !
The same players seem to get away with murder
The majority of Newcastle United UFC
but mainly Joelinton ,
Fernandes and Martinez at ManU , Caicedo, Coufal etc etc.
There are others - they all get away with repeatedly fouling
I wish the refs would do extensive prematch research on all the players like Pierluigi Collina used to do

So Chelsea have apparently taken points of the top 4 teams recently and their next game is against Newcastle.
Shame it’s not in a few weeks as they’re struggling with injuries and in two weeks they will presumably be stronger

No mention of that assault on Sterling with minutes to go ??
Pretty sure that’s why Poch was going crazy
Sterling was taken out breaking forward but the ref waved play on .. pretty sure he was that angry he sprinted back and took Foden out

If we play like we did today against Newcastle i can't see us losing that game. And yeah, Sterling takes a beating in most games. The opposition always looking to demobilise him.

Yeah. I will say Chelsea did put in some crunching tackles today. I'd be a hypocrite is i didn't acknowledge Gallagher trying to kill a City player, can't remember who it was.
If we can hit Newcastle on the break i think we have a really good chance at beating them. It seems our counter attacking in the past 2 games has been much more promising!
Also, Jackson is a good finisher if you give him the ball at speed around the 6 yard box, which is fine by me.
Our weak link is Enzo Fernandez imo. We paid waaaay too much for him, he's not worth a fraction of what we paid!

Feared the worst after dropping points to Luton last week but bounced back really well today. Huge game against City next, just praying no injuries over the international break for us.

Wow ..
I had him down as one of your few successes !!
I don’t watch them as carefully or look as critically as you do but I only see Enzo and Thiago Silva as playing consistently well .
Caicedo is an effective stopper but he’s very poor on the ball in my view
Mudryk is a complete disappointment and ok so glad that Arsenal failed to sign him .

He's been extremely average, below average in fact. Chelsea wouldn't miss him in the slightest. And yes, Mudryk is another flop. Thiago Silva is a Chelsea legend, love the guy. Every young defender should look up to him. The ultimate footballer!

I mean, even 3 years ago when he joined Chelsea he was 35/36, i guess not making him the captain the managers who have come and gone were probably looking to the future. I mean, yes James is injury prone, which is a damn shame, but without all those injuries he's got the potential to become a world class full back, and captain.
Mount was one we toyed with too, but he's just another massively over hyped young Englishman who will have an average career, and being an average player.

Hopefully he'll be offer a role behind the scenes, like coaching etc. I think he and his family are pretty settled in Europe too, i mean he was in Paris for like 10 years before came to London, and Milan before that.

Has anybody else been paying attention to Ramsdale's Dad criticizing Arteta in the Media because Arteta dared to prefer another Goalkeeper?:joker:
And look I get that he wants to defend his Son, but ultimately he is going to make Aaron Ramsdale's future interactions with Arteta a lot more awkward now.

they deserve it for playing **** football for years
Erik ten Hag has been told his managerial reign at Manchester United won’t last much longer in a brutal assessment of his coaching abilities and overall tenure at Old Trafford.
The Red Devils have unquestionably regressed this season on the back of finishing third and winning the EFL Cup last term. Man Utd have lost nine of their first 18 matches across all competitions. Three of the defeats have come in the Champions League, a situation that leaves them bottom of Group A with two games to play.
With Sir Jim Ratcliffe primed to purchase a 25 percent stake in Man Utd, major change is afoot.
CEO Richard Arnold is the first casualty of those behind the scenes. Director of Football, John Murtough, could follow and is ‘vulnerable’, according to The Telegraph.
Ratcliffe will lean on legendary manager Sir Alex Ferguson when making key decisions at Man Utd. Ferguson could have a say in who replaces Murtough, with six candidates already in the frame.
The Sun also claimed Man Utd’s playing personnel are in for a shock with Ratcliffe ready to sanction a squad ‘reset’.
Talk of Ten Hag getting the boot has also done the rounds, though most outlets insist the Dutchman will be spared.

I agree that it'll already be awkward, that's why Ramsdale's Dad making it worse isn't doing his son any favours with the club imo, after all Ramsdale only has to get past Raya who isn't exactly brilliant himself.
And Southgate is being a hypocrite imo, Henderson playing is okay even though he is playing in National League Saudi, but Ramsdale being number 2 at Arsenal could see him not being called up to the England squad?:conf:
I like Southgate and respect that he has done well for England over the years, but he needs to make sense when it comes to his process of picking players.

Who would you want out of the three options to be your next Manager BOTS?
1. Frank Lampard
2. Steven Gerrard
3. Wayne Rooney (He should be sacked once he fails to beat the worst Championship side of all time)
I dont care who the manager is, they need to terminate the contracts of most of the first team players and start again
