Wish VAR would just fuck off Why VAR got it correct, just took ages to make the decision. VAR should have sent Bruno and Havertz off for dangerous play. I Love Bruno but the forearm shite needs to stop, refs will be looking for it now on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wallsendmag Posted November 5, 2023 Share Posted November 5, 2023 45 minutes ago, David Edgar said: Looking at the incident again now and I'm now 100% that it should've been ruled out because of Joelinton's two hands in the back of Gabriel. Can understand the fume on that one. Gary Neville, who was a defender himself, said no way in the world was that a foul so it just shows how people can interpret things differently. With the ref giving the goal on the field I don't think there's enough there to say he's made an error which needs to be overturned. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut Posted November 5, 2023 Share Posted November 5, 2023 Of all of last season's top 5, his Arsenal is the most toothless. Take Rice out and I'd put them out of this season's top 5 which for the money they've spent under Arteta is shocking. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

McCormick Posted November 5, 2023 Share Posted November 5, 2023 I’m biased but I don’t see why there’s such an uproar about our goal. “Worse VAR debacle of all time”? Fuck off. Could have been ruled out but it’s a 50-50 decision; ball probably in, soft “foul” in the build-up and an inconclusive offside. Scandalous how Arteta’s spun the narrative here.

This makes a really good point, that Arteta’s reaction is to cause a distraction and to put the pressure on the officials and to take it off their back line for what was awful defending for the goal. It will also galvanise the club and supporters to think they have been robbed rather than losing a close game where they failed to create any real goal scoring opportunities.

Chris_R Posted November 5, 2023 Share Posted November 5, 2023 (edited) The noise around our goal is stupid, Arteta basically thinking that since there were three checks, surely one of them must be given? But it doesn't work like that. It wasn't offside. Gordon was behind Joelinton. That's the end of that one. The ball cannot be conclusively said to be out. That's the end of that one too. That just leaves the push, that's all Arteta or anyone else has personally I think that was a foul, but it was soft and VC AR have decided there wasn't enough to overrule the on field decision. But the other two checks simply could not be used to disallow the goal. So there was only one check that can really even be open to debate. Just because they check three things doesn't mean they have to give one to each side, this isn't like distributing sweets to your kids FFS.

Tsunami Posted November 5, 2023 Share Posted November 5, 2023 The only controversy over the goal should be a possible foul. On balance I don’t think it was a clear and obvious error. Raya misses the cross, Gabriel finds himself having to stoop to try and head the ball. Jo now finds himself jumping with a defender stooping, not jumping, and having braced himself for impact with a vertical jumping defender Jo has no option but to put his hands out. Otherwise he is barrelling face first into Gabriel. That’s my take on it. If the ref had given a foul onfield it wouldn’t have been overturned but, not clear and obvious. BTW Bruno needs to be fined the next time he needlessly punches or clouts someone on the head. That’s twice he’s got away with it. Havertz is a dirty twat and has form against us.

simonsays Posted November 5, 2023 Share Posted November 5, 2023 The Arsenal players are only moaning about the ball being out of play, now it seems to be agreed that Willock.kept it in Arsenal fans have moved in to it being a foul on Gabriel.

Beren Posted November 5, 2023 Share Posted November 5, 2023 6 minutes ago, Tsunami said: The only controversy over the goal should be a possible foul. Agree with that. I think it's 50-50. I personally think Gabriel is banking on playing for a foul and doesn't do enough to defend the cross. He's stooped under the flight of the ball before Joelinton has properly made contact. Does that make contact less of a foul? I think it's soft but you could argue it. I don't think it's incontrovertible-must-be-overturned material.

Gallowgate Toon Posted November 5, 2023 Share Posted November 5, 2023 Gabriel should be stronger. Ne chance Big Jam is getting done there if the situation is reversed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
