Arteta gets another yellow, that man has zero class whatsoever

Jumping up and down like a fudging possessed monkey! Absolute retread.
The amount and level of fouls they get away with is staggering! Zinchenko repeatedly in the refs face, pointing fingers in his face, gets nothing. Jesus with a nasty elbow in the face of a Brighton player, nothing.

Desgracia!

Isn't that a ban for him now ???
Maybe the FA backing will mean that the Ref's will think right everytime he does anything ever so slightly wrong we will hammer him

How is Coufal still on the pitch, that is a clear elbow in the face?

The Arsenal/Brighton game is getting tetchy and it’s all down to the ref’s lacking the courage to book players early for clear yellow card fouls, and then a complete lack of consistency. White got the first booking for a tug back. Mitoma waved an imaginary yellow at the ref and he ignored it. Then Arteta waves an imaginary yellow after a Mitoma tug back and the ref books Arteta. It seems that waving imaginary yellows is randomly enforced by this ref.

SMS Message: I'm sure it was only days ago Arteta preached working alongside referees to make things better. Next chance he's booked for mouthing off again. The man is a cartoon at this point. from James, Bedford

SMS Message: Does anyone else miss the days when Managers used to have some dignity and restraint? The Artetas of the game should leave the players to get on with it. from Lawrence, Sparta

Are you voluntarily watching West Ham or are your kidnappers forcing you to watch them!?

Cant load a river for either of the other 2 so I have it on in the background for some noise. Not paying much attention, but that incident just stood out

 

[markysimmo]

Pathetic defending by Brighton

 

[paxtonwolf]

I see Arsenal now lead. Wasnt really expecting anything less today, ah well

Have to feel for Wolves, technically correct but they've had some horrible VAR decisions against them.. Harsh

It’s over 5 shockers so far

How that elbow wasn't checked on half time, you'd have every right to start thinking there's a conspiracy against you. About as clear violent conduct as you'll ever see

Wolves keeper has invisible hands it seems

 

[DeanoAustin]

fudge me, Brighton have been dogbrick. Utterly dominated. Dunno how they are still in the game.

Nice of The Dippers to give United some chance by playing with 10 + Nunez.

 

[markysimmo]

and just missed a sitter !!!

 

[DeanoAustin]

The technique from Gross there is an absolute disgrace for a professional footballer. Has to go with the other foot surely?

 

[jrh]

Brentford fudge it up against Villa too, horrible results all round

 

[DeanoAustin]

Outrageously bad defending to allow the Woolwich player to turn there when facing his own goal. The Brighton lad just backed off.

So is De Zerbi just a fraud who piggy-backed off Potter's good work? Has a bit of the Conte's about him, bet he's not fun to play under. Seems like a right clam.
