You were top at the end of that game ... ... your players were putting ****ing selfies all over the net from the dressing room after the game <laugh> and gooners were definitely talking about the title.

That season killed Wenger. He came second when we fell apart but coming above us allowed him and the board to pretend all was good.
Iirc 2016 was the last time you qualified for the CL and the last time you finished above us.

Being honest is vital if you are going to improve and Arsenal weren't honest that season. They pretended they were never in the title race to hide their failure...we did similar in 2019when we allowed the CL final to paper over some very big cracks.
It's no wonder we are in 9th and 11th places in the league now tbh.

Harsh or an obvs peno? The shot looked to be on target, so probably right imo.

If he doesn't flinch or turn though it's not given.

Very difficult to stand square and keep your ams by your side when the ball is hit at near to head height from such a close proximity.

Somewhere between the two imo. Can see why it's given in the current game but not sure there was much he could do about it.

Tad frustrating when you look at the one we didn't get in last home game though.

Exactly.

The bar for awarding penalties needs raising across the board, as too many are being given...or not given, for similar things.
