Armchair Pundit

Exactly, we said at the time that if watched in real time you can see quite clearly that it's not a foul and is in fact Gabriel fucking up. The most annoying thing for me since it happened is the amount of Arsenal fans making the claim of foul but only making that judgement based on stills, which look a complete different story.

Bit harsh having a crack at any of our lads really imo. I think the injuries are finally catching up with us, we're on our arse, so to expect much in terms of equal ability or following the usual strict tactics isn't really fair. It's not been great in terms of attack for that first half, but get a decent counter and we could nick it.

Has the Ange said how much of a disgrace it was and how ashamed he is yet?

Every posibility

Shit, I think my memory's going, I don't even remember that happening!!! Must be going senile in my old age.

Love a pun Yeah, I just checked, didn't realise Targett was injured as well, when did that happen?!

What have I missed? Don't tell me someone else has got injured...

We've got plenty of options at LB, be it Tripps, Targett, Hall or Dummett, it's no big issue imo. We're struggling more in other areas.

I guess the "Saudi's paying them off" accusation is always going to be the first port of call for any lazy supporters of other teams, it's nearly as pathetic as the actual tears these Arsenal wanks are spilling over a game that they had one shot on goal in and could easily have lost a player to a red card in the first half. I think what's annoyed me more though, as the weekend's gone on, is knowing that the ball being out and the offside were both inconclusive, they've all decided that the supposed foul by Joelinton is stonewall when all they've concentrated on is stills of the incident - yeah, from the stills he's got both hands on the back of Gabriel, but watch it in real time and it's clear that Gabriel drops a bollock in trying to head the ball, leaning too far forward, at best it's 50/50. Typical that the narrative gets twisted to suit the dickheads who don't like the truth.

Thought this for ages. I get that some managers want to cultivate a 'them against the world' mentality amongst their players and fans, but these two take it to the next level and it just looks pathetic from the outside. A decent manager accepts they can't do anything further about a loss, congratulates the other team on the win and works at making sure their team doesn't get into that position again in the future. Instead, Arteta and Klopp just make themselves look like whiny, entitled children, sore losers and divine-righters. For me, these arguments always come back to 'you make your own luck', if you're good enough, you win convincingly, if you're not good enough you have to accept the fine margins can go either way - and yes, I know that's easy to say when you're on the winning side, but it's true. All Arteta's done is make it obvious how mentally weak he is and how much he relies on help from the officials to win things.

Yeah, but he thinks his team have a god given right to 3pts every match

Pure gold - hope someone makes a meme of Arteta.

It's hilarious, pure gold - loving seeing Arteta acting like this... "It's a disgrace". Hope someone makes a meme of it, prick.

Got to say, he's been really good, easily as good as Botman or Fabs

FUCKING YEEEESSSSSS!!! GET IN!!! So pleased we beat those diving fucks!

I fucking hate Arsenal, they don't deserve any plaudits, they live off pushing the so called dark arts and being backed up by shit refereeing. Diving, leaning into, pulling shirts, atrocious tackles, then letting the ref defend them. Cunts.

I was fucking raging after the ref carded three of our players following the Havertz incident, no need at all, utterly ridiculous, especially after three of the Arsenal players received fuck all for waving imaginary cards at the ref following Dan Burn's tackle on Saka. Bruno losing his head might be wrong, but was a direct result of terrible officiating and inconsistency.

Protest against ticket prices

Christ, we're clearly not going for it (not that we had much choice). If we get anything tonight I'll be amazed, half of the team probably aren't even match fit ... bugger

Happy with that, always a bit wary coming back from a break, especially when we'd been doing alright before the break. Got a few heavier games coming up against Dortmund, Arsenal, Man Utd and Chelsea, hopefully we can keep motivation in those with wins over Wolves and Bournemouth.

I enjoy beating Liverpool... or Man Utd, Arsenal, Chelsea, Spurs, Everton or Villa more though

It blows my mind how utterly shite the officials are, week after week. I'd like to give them the benefit of the doubt but the standard in the last few years has been utter dog shit

Fucking Tripps getting a yellow there, absolute joke

Got his contract sorted and all is fine in the world with him again
