United were good … but I thought Arsenal played amazing football for the majority of the game but were caught out when they were playing catch up ..

Have to say that the Martinelli goal was incorrectly disallowed .. they went back to that soft ‘coming together’ when there had already been about 50 stronger ‘coming togethers’ before that one .

They have relaxed the rule on physical contact to let the game flow and try and control all the diving / feigning injury so they can’t go back to how it was and call it a foul on Eriksen !! He didn’t blow for a foul in real time so it’s ridiculous to disallow a flaming goal for that minuscule contact .

I also thought that Saka was fouled twice I the box but the ref waved play on both times - the second time he was clearly injured and needed extensive treatment .. why didn’t VAR check them anyways ??



So confusing.


Also .. Martinez took Jesus out after just 1 minute 34 seconds of the game starting .. if you watch the replays he actually stamped on his ankle .. yet only a free kick given !

Martinez was involved in one of the two Saka penalty claims .

-

Jesus was clearly being targeted and was kicked from pillar to post all day - and got zero protection from the ref .

Late on McTominey actually whacked Jesus from behind before THROWING him to the ground .. it was his 20th foul and finally got booked .

It wasn’t all one way ( just 95%) as Bruno was taken out by a dangerous looking high tackle ..


I think the refs have lost the plot .. it’s like the old days when the defenders were allowed a couple of really bad tackles at the the start of every game !!

Trouble is we all want to see fabulous, flair players and creative midfielders but some are gonna get injured due to the lenient officiating.

Martinez must think he’s landed in heaven as he’s been given free roam to just kick anything that moves !!

You know what he said in an interview when he signed for United ??

He said that he was very committed and didn’t mind walking over corpses to get the ball !!!!

Rant over !!


I still think Arsenal will win the league aa long as their forwards aren’t injured by defenders …
