Two fouls in one move for me. Took him with his hip and tugged the shirt. Would have been pissed off if we were denied one like that.
Very poor use of VAR. Obviously there is contact, but no way is it enough to make Silva fall like that. Fair enough if the referee had given it, but after he didn't, the VAR should have stuck with it.
Does anyone think that the earlier lunge (I think from Dias) would be a red card if it were, say, Salisu? He looked like he had no control at all
I know it wasn’t a red card. But my point that it wouldn’t surprise me one bit if a bottom half player gets sent off for that Perhaps one that goes to VAR to be overturned but…
I think it was - I think Arsenal are by far the better team, but Xhaka’s knee caught Silva first, allowing him to go down. Then Xhaka should have had a second yellow for his continual complaining to the referee. In the end, Gabriel is a total dick for getting a yellow for scuffing the spot ….. Was a great game - now ruined by the sending off and the ridiculous player attitudes …..
What’s the chances that Xhaka gets a red soon ….. he’s throwing himself around like a headless chicken. I’d take him off if I was a manager …..
Lacazette goes off and gives the armband to …… Xhaka. That’s why I’m so rubbish at Fantasy PL and would be a hopeless manager
Have to feel sorry for Arsenal, but the final result has to be down to that stupid booking for scuffing the penalty spot. Let his teammates down. Idiot
