I started watching just after their goal and when I seen the score all I could do was laff
Tbf in the last 20 minutes we have upped our game - our 2 wingers are playing ok (pepe better than ok), and cedric is clearly more for driving at them that the c.unt he replaced who just runs forward for 10 yards before going backwards
Have to be honest and say that I'm still worried about our centre backs and centre mids - nop doubt leicester have backed off since they scored, but I watched them play the victims lately where they were poor in the first half, and then blew them away in the last half hour Madison is a big loss for them, and I think steptoe looked like he hurt his groin at one stage so hoopefully he'll have to go off shortly
Disgusting that it wasn't given at the time, pure cheating that the pricks in the VAR gay sex dungeon didn't give it and tried to put it back on the ref. Fucking good penalty though.
The system is broken and corrupt. The ref should have given it immediately. The fucking VAR gimp then should have never pushed it back on the ref.
Yeah, they gave an exact same one against us when ESR did the same.
Not sure why it took so long to review,even during normal play it looked a pen
That would have been given in a second at Wankfield, of course, with us they try absolutely everything to stop us benefitting from a decision.
The frustrating thing about this Arsenal side no body would have been in the refs face had he not given/reviewed it,whereas other clubs players would have not left the ref alone until it was reviewed,we are just so naive for a side with so much experience,they seen to accept a lot of injustice
Even Huff n Puff did a bit in that half in fairness. Most of our players have done well with the exception of Xhakatard who has done nothing, Butter Wrists who did his usual parry one back into the danger area, and Mari who looks very nervy.
Hoping Smith-Rowe is only precautionary because he adds so much to us in that final third.
Anyone else noticed that Harvey Barnes - yes, he of 13 goals has barely had a sniff down the side of the pitch where Greta Thunberg would normally be scampering back blowing out of his eco warrior arse?
Comes to something when a bloke deemed surplus to requirements at Southampton is head and shoulders above the gormless c.unt we pick as our first choice RB
Won't matter of course, as the quorn munching prick will be straight back in no matter how well Cedric plays
VAR looks at about 15 replays of the first penalty before deciding that it is not only clear and obvious, but actually so clear and obvious that the referee isn’t allowed to view it on the monitor to make his own mind up.
How neither the linesman nor the ref saw that handball is an absolute mystery. His arm was out beyond his head when he blocked that cross for fucks sake. Even then the referee has to go to his monitor and watch it a few times before begrudgingly giving it.
They have kicked the shit out of Pepe whenever he gets the ball. That full back should have been booked before he finally was. Soyuncu should have been booked for hacking down Pepe and then throwing the ball away. Ndidi deliberately tripped Pepe when bursting into the box and then blocked a goal bound shot with his arms fully outstretched - no yellow.
Evans feigns a minor head injury and the ref is desperate to blow his whistle before Tierney can get his shot away.
We are actually playing well but it is a constant battle against dreadful officials.

Absolutely, I've been saying it for years. Other clubs get round the ref in seconds whereas our lot just stand there. They should be in his ear every time there's something but the lack of leadership means we don't have anyone. Make Tierney captain, he'll be the one.

Rumour has it he's off in the summer so that should please you.
Mind you, we don't know who'll replace him yet which may or may not please you.
