What was his Achilles doing there sliding in from behind not getting the ball?Foden kicks Sidibes achilles.
You have to punish the defensive player, not the guy shooting for goal.

We haven't played our best defence with a manager who has half a brain so who knows. I believe a back four of Bellerin, Chambers, Holding & Tierney is pretty solid. (And I think Leno is probably better than all their keepers except for Alisson and maybe Ederson too).
Our midfield is pretty ordinary. Torreira is pretty good, Ozil is elite when at his best (few and far between though, but looking much better under Arteta), inclined to agree though.
Chambers and Holding.. Yikes.
It's a challenge from the side, not behind. If Liverpool got awarded the very same penalty by VAR youd be taking digs at Pigmol & VAR all day long.
And you would be writing chapters on how it was the correct decision. FWIW I have rarely commented on Liverpool's penalties, it's just not worth it. But if Liverpool received a penalty in that situation I would have thought it was the correct decision.
When have I last criticised a Liverpool penalty decision? I'm not like you.Sure you would have.
We have Saliba coming in during the summer who from all accounts has been fantastic for St Etienne.Chambers and Holding.. Yikes.
Mate Ljungberg was manager and his team selections were truly awful.Arsenal fans getting hyped beating a team who lost to Watford by the same score a few weeks ago? Bless ‘em, it doesn’t take a lot to get them pumped these days
If you go to ground in the penalty area, don't get the ball and make contact with a bloke shooting for goal do you not think that's a fairly straightforward foul?How does he kick Foden, with his heel?
Arsenal, Spurs and United are all way off the pace. You lot make me laugh, perhaps the most deluded fanbase on here. Least us spurs fans know we are s**t at the momentWe have Saliba coming in during the summer who from all accounts has been fantastic for St Etienne.
Holding has potential, most seem to think so.

First half was good. Second half not so muchOh, we are well aware how bad we are.
It was a different team this morning. Not played like that for a very long time.

His stats last night say yes. Most recoveries and highest distance covered by an arsenal player.Do you reckon Arterta can motivate Ozil to work hard for the team and play to his abilities? That would almost be like a new signing for you guys as he has been ineffective for quite some time.
disagree on the second half. We lack the fitness to continue what we did in the first half so we sat back and attempted to congest our own half. Don’t think United really threatened to be honest.First half was good. Second half not so much

That is true.Foden kicks Sidibes achilles.
Nonsense.Yep, Foden should have seen red.
Spot on imo.What was his Achilles doing there sliding in from behind not getting the ball?

Fitness is still an issue for Arsenal, it was the same on Sunday. They blitzed us in the first half and we were lucky not to be more than 1-0 down. They faded and, with the assistance of a Leno blunder and Jorginho not being sent off, we were able to sneak in 2 late goals and win. I can already tell that Arteta has restored belief in the team and has them playing an exciting brand of football but, right now, it's not quite sustainable meaning they need to make the most of their first halves or they will still drop points. Early days but they do look like they're gradually turning the corner.First half was good. Second half not so much
Again?Yep, looks that way. This is an incident that VAR should not be recommending a review for, certainly not a clear and obvious error.
Again VAR gets this spot on.

I assume that was the joke...as opposed to the VvD “handball” still...
Does Sidibe also get the ball?If you go to ground in the penalty area, don't get the ball and make contact with a bloke shooting for goal do you not think that's a fairly straightforward foul?
