I’m confident that it will all come good for Arsenal and Liverpool

They are both on third gear .

City look to have maybe lost Haaland ..

The scary thing about City is even without Haaland they are still more than capable of winning the league.

The press and public response was to laugh at the whinging scousers instead of realizing this was going to happen again. Arteta was one of those who dismissed the decisions against Liverpool. Yet now he's outraged.
Fair enough on Arteta's hypocrisy.

And tbh I do think that Arsenal have issues going forward, and I get that as an Arsenal supporter that you're understandably very concerned about that.

For me as a neutral to both teams, I was watching to see a fair game play out, which I feel didn't happen on Saturday, and I don't know if this makes you feel any better about the result, but was Newcastle any better than Arsenal during the match?

forget Haaland


Amoura from Union St Gillis is the new real deal


nice bicycle kick for the 1-0

solid impossible angle 2-1 goal either, shame he got injured over a stupid advertisement banner which lay next to the goal when celebrating

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

That may be true but when the ref sees it, he's supposed to call it.

Joelinton has his arms stretched out. It's a completely unnatural position to jump. It's like he's anticipating contact, which comes from the challenge. It's foul and about as clear-cut as you can get. The only defense other than the one you have given is that Gabby should be stronger. That doesn't mean much, because it's still a foul if Gabby is strong or weak.

Idont agree with Artetas rant and I think the rant was more due to frustration that Artetas realising he's not the football clever clogs hes thinks he is

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

Caicedo is another great player who gets away with murder

Extremely limited with the ball

Just went straight through Maddison with a challenge that was outlawed until the reffing in this country fell to laughable levels

I also think Artetas realizing the Havertz experiment is really costing him. I think that rant was frustration that the team is not functioning like last year.

Refs ‘fall’ for that every time

The players feels minimal contact from behind then simply falls forward

The refs give a foul each time

Disallowing goals like this is ridiculous

What happened to giving the attacking team benefit of the doubt

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!
