Watching Arsenal now .. Saka continued to get hacked down match after match and the defenders rarely get booked

I just don’t understand why the officials have gone from being too picky in recent seasons to being far , far too lenient this season.

You can literally kick someone up in the air from behind and nothing happens but a little tug on a shirt and they get booked


To make matters worse the refs seem more likely to penalise a tackle from a striker like Trossard who rarely fouls anyone than someone like Koulabaly who routinely punts strikers up in the air without a second thought

Final rant .. for now ..
I don’t dare celebrate a goal nowadays as it seems like VAR are intent on disallowing as many goals as possible

It’s not long ago they said that offside decisions would go in favour off the attacking team …

Edit .. there you go …. Goal disallowed

Wow ..

Arsenal are playing some marvellous stuff again .. Partey seems to make such a massive difference to them

This could be a 7:0 game

I can even see Jesus coming on in the second half and scoring a couple

Arsenals bench is also impressive


Jesus , Tierney , Smith-Rowe , Vieira , Nketiah and Jorginho to list a few !!

Can’t see how Jesus gets into this starting eleven tbh

My gawd Arsenal have missed about 4 absolute sitters already

At 2:0 up I hope they don’t mess this up

The next goal is absolutely crucial today

My gawd Arsenal are gonna get roasted at half time !!

The team has got so complacent and careless in equal measures

Suddenly after 30 minutes giving the ball away carelessly, Ramsdale making two howlers with his passing out .. then all those bad misses .

Edit - just scored the vital third goal so it’s 3:0 at halftime !!

I wonder if Arteta will make two or three subs now - just to shake a few out if their complacency ?

Ramsdale made a goof and apologised then nearly got caught in possession on his goal line seconds later !!

Casemiro may be a good player but if he is always going to get sent off, there is no point in him being there

Robinson has kicked Saka from the first minute to the 64th and still hasn’t been booked

In fact everyone has kicked Saka today .

I don’t get the lack of protection to the flair players .. they get the people wanting to watch football .. it’s not the hack merchants

Edit

Sara taken off - probably to save him from injury

He was unlucky last time , I felt .. he was sent off for having his hands around dons guys throat … but later footage proved he only had hold of the guys collar.. he was actually stopping the guy from getting into trouble in the melee .. they both walked away smiling at each other .. the ref decided to send Casimiro off though

Ref was right there .. foul given but no card !!

So after the international break and before Arsenal play City in THAT match .. they both play Liverpool but City have to also play Brighton AWAY .

Before all that - Arsenal can beat woeful Palace at home next Sunday and go 8 points clear ( Palace are the first team to not have a shot on target in THREE consecutive games since OPRA stats began )

I’d love to see Arsenal go for Daniel Podence in the summer window ..

He’s perfect for them

there are 9 teams that are in danger of relegation. I don't remember it ever being such a wide possibility at this stage in the season

Hopefully West Ham go down unless they see the light and sack Moyse

Trossard has registered as many assists for Arsenal in 45 minutes today as Son has for Tottenham all season
