As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.
As much as I blame Arteta for our paper thin squad and not signing a fucking striker and keeping shit like Carpark-Foot, we got fucked again today by a cheating fucking referee.
We’re reffed differently to other teams. Decisions go against us that you will never see awarded anywhere ever again. Either that’s just extremely bad luck or there’s something else at play.
Even with all the right personnel it will be very hard for us to ever win a league again playing against a stacked deck.
The ref was a bent cùnt but that shouldn't hide how pathetic of a performance that was. We were absolutely inept throughout and the squad and it's depth is absolutely shambolic and its all on Arteta.
Soft penalty maybe but we are nowhere near good enough to beat Liverpool over 19 games, never mind starting with a significant deficit. Serious questions over Arteta now.
absolutely we have some players in our team let alone squad who should be nowhere near it....cant win a title with them...think we all know who they are
Couldn't wait to give that, that cûnt. Like the Trossard red at Cheaty or the Saliba at Bournemouth, they jump straight it as soon as they get a chance. Gabriel pulled to the ground round the neck at a corner, nothing. Then the cûnt goes and gives that. Fucking disgraceful and we need to start calling them out on it.
Didn’t deserve to win playing like that. Didn’t even think the penalty was controversial - Saliba was late and caught him. We’re short of challenging which I think was obvious at the start of the season, haven’t made the signings to push off from last two years.
5 points behind with two games more played.
Far too many draws to be a title winning team.
If Odegaard is fit then he should have started.
He doesn't need to play Carabao cup or against Girona or even in the FA Cup.
Best team available should play in the league always.

It was a soft penalty but you see them given. We were shit. We couldn’t even take a fucking throw in when we had 15 seconds to hoof the fucker up the other end to try and stay in the title race. Arteta needs to feel the heat.
Tbf Taylor gave us a dubious penalty at West Ham after their keeper grazed Gabriel's head from a corner so he's consistently useless.
No need for Saliba to challenge for the header as there was no danger and we had men back. He should've been smarter and held his position.

Show me one other incident like that where a penalty was awarded. I’ll wait!

This...100% after seeing it again, it was a stupid challenge. We deserved the battering we got in that 2nd half, every decision we made was WRONG

He wasn't even in a position to see. No way he had a clear line of sight to give that. You can see the cheating bald cûnt move his whole body and head round a player to give it. It's clear bias and cheating. Absolutely clear. The rules are applied differently for us and we need to start doing something about it as a club.
Might as well start 'leaving the head in' every time we're in the box now. Like we used to see players leaving their legs in for the keeper to catch, put your head in and then wait for the defender to make contact, go down. Has to be a penalty now.
