that point needs to be emphasised by brendan in interviews. getting a very poor excuse to use now, yet **** all is said about the ****ing dirty ****e he has to put up with!
Didn't you call some fans spoilt brats for thinking the same after the Fulham game? And we were actually somewhat better today.
Martin Keown, at Emirates Stadium for 5 live Sport Arsenal 2-1 Liverpool "I see Howard Webb as a top referee. Things happen at break-neck speed. I needed a replay on numerous occasions but he got two major instances wrong. But have understanding - that game was so quick. I didn't think, for example, that Steven Gerrard should have been sent off. For me the referee handled that well." I hope he's not referring to the first pen as wrong
And what a bargain that is. He's done brilliant for them this season. Top of the league, favourites for champions league, still in both cups and all down to rooneys goals and all round out of this world play..........oh hang on....
I wouldn't have given the Agger pen, to be fair... The second Suarez one though, should have been given. Had that happened and the first Suarez one not given, we'd have got it. I think Webb bottled giving two penalties in a game.
I called you a spoilt brat about complaining about a game where we won 3-2 away from home. And I wasn't complaining about our performance, I said we were brilliant today. What I was pointing out was how poor we are at building pressure on a team away from home in the last minutes of a game when we're looking for an equaliser.
Got to say, and not just about the pen*, but are we REALLY sending Webb to the WC as our country's representative? * Is that the two hundred and fiftieth, or two hundred and fifty first time that Luis has been denied an absolute total stonewall pen five yards from a referee and his reputation is thrown up as some sort of twatish excuse for home-biased, one-eyed, cowardly incompetence? Gerrard should have been sent off - ****ing Podolski should have been booked and then committed four bookable offences thereafter, and a booked Monreal got away with two challenges after that. Webb, the ****ing Emporer's New Clothes.
Enjoy it young'en. It'll probably be one of only 2 timea in your entire life you see this. No wonder you are excited.
