I don’t usually have sympathy for Arsenal but that was such a dive from Hazard. He does it all the time. I would be fuming if this was Chelsea v Spurs and we had a penalty given against us like that.
Just as I posted that, Chelsea almost go and get the winner.
Good job RCL isn’t online tonight otherwise I’d be on the receiving end!!
“When will you learn you stupid bastard?!”

Yeah, mad finish, neither sides played all that well.
When Arsenal and Chelsea play us, we'd do a lot better if they played as open as they do playing each other.
Arsenal's record this season v current top 4 is PL 6 W0 D3 L3 F7 A15 Pts 3.
15 goals conceded!
They can't defend. Wenger never learns from making the same mistakes year after year.
But they always have "great" games according to the pundits. It's "incredible", "pulsating" etc etc.
Bet it's great consolation for being 6th and looking like that's the highest they can realistically finish

Would love to take the piss out of that record but ours against the top 6 is...
Played 5 won 1 drew 0 lost 4 for 6 ag 10
To be honest these games do not decide the top 4.
As I said the other day, they are conceding too many
and this season not scoring enough to compensate.
I suspect it will be EL or bust soon enough.

Although I agree with what you're saying, games like this aren't what determines who finishes in the top 4 and who doesn't. If we don't get in the top 4 (and I also do not think we will), it is the results against West Ham, West Brom, Stoke and Watford that have cost us ever so dearly. These are the types of matches I will look to to explain why we didn't make the top 4; not matches against City, United, Liverpool or Chelsea.
100% agree. As much as the media drone on about 'Pochettino's terrible away record against the top 6', they fail to realise that at the end of the season, we'll be looking back at poor draws against the likes of Swansea, WBA and B'mouth as the moments that cost us whatever goals we'd set.
Securing a top 4 spot requires you to be ruthless flat-track bullies - something Arsenal were pretty good at until last season. Winning the title hinges on your record against the biggest and best and currently no-one is even close to City in that respect.
Completely agree apart from we beat Bournemouth...think you're confusing them with Burnley...simply mistake to make as they both have over rated managers and fans with webbed toes and way too many teeth
