By the way, I still stand by what I said at HT - Arteta should go HAM on Michael Oliver in the post-match conference. He's a ****ing abomination. We won the game despite him doing his best to make life impossible for us.
I hope so too!! Let Oliver and VAR compare Lewis-Skelly's and Gomes' tackles/fouls and let him ****ing explain!
Battling win in the end and well deserved 3 points. But... Michael Oliver An absolute ****ing disgrace. Bloke literally does his best to ruin games and put himself in the spotlight. The decision today was one of the worst I've ever seen. Even worse than the pen against us for the clash of heads the other week. The PGMOL need apologise for this debacle today, rescind the red card and demote OIiver to the Championship.
please log in to view this image Big shout to Calafiori. He's been a brilliant signing, just back from injury too and he pops up with another really important goal
Thank **** for that. But honestly .. The Declan Rice sending off, the Saliba Penalty and now this one... What can be done accept just an appeal? If there's actual evidence of corruption within PGMOL what's the process and can anything actually be done about it?
Well even Shearer reckons it was a bullshit sending off so that counts for something from someone who has always been a prick against AFC!
Have a look at the Enciso challenge on Endo that was only a yellow card. Regardless of the team you support the match officials, be they onfield or on VAR, they are just a laughing stock.
