In that as much as he gets spoken about as being really good, he’s genuinely world class. If Arsenal sign a player to give him a rest, I think he’ll kick on next season. Potentially up to Robben levels. He’s utterly exhausted, gets smashed to pieces every single game but shows up every time. Exceptional player.

Well done Gunners, need a City win now to keep it honest until the end.
Offsides are more matter of fact though. The only surprise is that they’ve take a season or 2 to introduce the semi automated offsides, again, that will be matter of fact, and at least there should be no need for the long stoppages for line drawing.
Just seen the Brighton and Bournemouth result... wow. Brighton so good that they beat football and then topped that by managing to beat Brighton?
You just know if Arsenal needed a goal there, they'd have played till 101 minutes.
Most arsenal fans hate those clowns too, especially morgan, I literally never spoke to an arsenal fan who likes morgan.
Watch our mugs go and turn Arsenal over
Forest-City on one screen, Forest's twitter timeline on the other. I'm ready.
Time for the refs to make a statement. Forest need some gifts, City need to have some calls against them. No Haaland or Foden so lost points will be directed at those absentees.
You are bringing subjectivity into it when we need to reduce it in the game.
Football has move on from just what we watch and enjoy, livelihood and money is now involved. It needs to be fair or try to be fair.
I feel we are going in cycles here but I believe you catch my drift
They’re a matter of fact but it’s not worth it if you’re looking for fractions, or if a toe is offside. Would say the same about Coventrys winner against United.
Haven’t read up on the semi auto offside thing but hopefully it’s something which will improve things. Understandably I have my doubts with how they’ve introduced literally everything else
Well you’re right about the money thing. But it’s overruling common sense in my opinion. They’re happy enough to cite “common sense” when explaining why they didn’t send off player X in an emotional game, or a semi final, but won’t use it for other things
I don't have that level of imagination.
Here’s hoping we manage a freak win.
Should be 1-0 already.
Interesting to see how City fare without Foden and Haaland, who seem to have scored all their goals this season. Weird not to keep Foden in the squad unless its a serious enough injury given they have a week off after this game.
No chance, it will be over by half time.
If its a choice of city or arsenal, I would rather arsenal every time.
In order of merit on who I don't want to win
Liverpool
City
Arsenal
So arsenal are by far the lesser of the three evils
This City just don't convince defensively. Forest should have scored already.
Are Forest fans singing Gary Neville is a wanker?
Yeah that is what I thought I could hear
We're on to your anti-Arsenal jinxing attempts
How do people prefer City to win the league over Arsenal. It's just so fecking boring to have them win it again.
They were bullied and/or got into fights with Arsenal fans in school over who was better between RVN and Henry
With you on this. Offsides are pretty much the one thing aside from GLT that we can actually get down to a science. The whole "but it's a toenail!" argument is basically just "but it's only just offside!" which means it's offside. Boom, done. Now we can try and solve one of the many other problems in football.
The "subjective offsides," where they're trying to decide if a player who doesn't touch the ball nor block someone's view is judged to be interfering with play or not - that's another matter entirely.
How is that even an argument though. I mean I love Ruud, but come on
How is that different what Ederson did compared to what Onana did. Nothing.
If Onana is a pen then this should be a pen
Better than seeing obnoxious arsenal fans winning
It's not between grown adults, but did you argue objectively in primary school?How is that even an argument though. I mean I love Ruud, but come on
Just a pen when we do it then. Cool.
Exactly
That was a pen yesterday. Not a pen today.
people here will still argue when we tell them « those are hardly given »
I don't do that now
Ederson got the foul here? I can literally not see any difference between the two.
That was nothing like yesterdays situation, come on.
The attacker kinda smashed into Ederson instead of the other way around surely?
Mind you I have not seen the Onana thing. Where is Giflord booted I know

I really dislike this Arsenal team, and Arteta especially. City winning is just meh. Doesn’t mean much to me - it’s almost like no one is winning it. Also, I’ve never met a Man City fan in my life. They didn’t exist where I grew up.
Indeed. Onana punched the fella in the face. This was a 50/50. My only issue with it is Ederson got given the freekick... Typical refs defending the keepers.
