City probably a bit fortunate. Forest could have scored two or three. Quality finishes by Gvardiol and Haaland though.

Who said that?
That was never a penalty for me, not from the replays I’ve seen. The sweeping move from there was glorious to score at the other end. The interplay between Saka and Havertz I can watch again and again.
I knew they’d come back hard in the second half, they had to, it was their grand final and they were well up for it overall. One of those chaotic finishes that I could’ve well done without, Raya’s mistake aged me a few years haha
3 huge points to cap off a very hectic schedule for Arsenal in the last few weeks, and now with 7 day gaps between the remaining league matches to contend with. Whether that impacts rhythm or not remains to be seen. Goes without saying, Arsenal need to win the 3 remaining fixtures and hope that somehow City drop points somewhere across their remaining 4.

Yes because you're a Gooner lol. If that happened to Saka in the 86th minute and you needed it to win the game and maintain the title charge it would be a disgrace and a stonewall pen.
It was soft but so is the majority of penalties. Trossard lightly kicked the back of Kulus leg

Are we allowed to talk about referee decisions now? Has the ban been lifted?
Yeah nah.

I thought it was a very professional performance from Arsenal, really showed up Spurs as quite naive.
I think Ange has a lot of work to do, he has quietly been underwhelming in the second half of the season. Having a terrible goalkeeper at set pieces doesn’t help though.

I'm not blaming the ref though spurs defended two corners like morons aswell I just think it's funny that people can't put bias aside watching penalty calls.
What a result! Massive. Just need to keep winning and hope City falter.
And how good is Ben White!

The one where he tried to step over a few times into the box? I thought it was at first but on replay there was nothing in it.

Very impressive by Arse against what should have been a highly motivated local rival and their biggest chance of dropping points. Don't see Arsenal dropping points against anyone else.

Nah that was Maddison that wasn't a penalty clean tackle by whoever it was. It was Kulu just before it and trossard went across the back of his legs gently and tripped him up.
Kinda funny cause arsenal scored directly from it and it was really the only open play chance created by either side for the whole game

Ohh my bad lol I didn't realise fouls only count if the balls close. Play on then!
Tangle of legs between two players nowhere near the ball, move on mate.
It's two players running past each other getting their feet tangled. It wouldn't be called a foul anywhere else on the pitch, and wasn't called a foul upon VAR review. Cope and seethe.

Neither coping nor seething big fella but you're weirdly defensive for something that's so clean cut. The old protesting too much I reckon..
Probably because you keep bringing it up every 2nd post

That's ok you keep defending it hard though and maybe they'll just keep the decision!

It wasn’t a wrong decision and I think it’s right VAR stayed out of it. Just like if it was given on the field I don’t think they get involved. Neither would be a clear and obvious error. If I’m spurs I’m more dirty at Maddison for his poor dive straight after. Gave it away cheaply with 2 spurs players now on the deck and gave Arsenal all the time in the world to counter.
