That’s what happens when you don’t take your chances, Bournemouth have been good enough for at least a draw.

[Terry Gibson's perm]

Did they just say 13 bookings and it hasn’t been a dirty game my god there is number 14

 

[alexccfc99]

Surely it says it all that even at 2-0 up yesterday no one actually expected Everton to get a result out of that game

 

[HadjiChippo]

Not sure Arsenal will win today without Rice and Odegaard, and no Calafiori either to deputise. Got a draw written all over it.

Jorginho-Partey-Havertz/Trossard midfield is definitely there to be got at.

Conversely I think Spurs’ lineup is a bit gung-ho and Arsenal could pick them off on the break.

 

[clint van damme]

Hoping for a spurs win and the squad go on a 2 day bender to celebrate

 

[HadjiChippo]

Good start to the game, both sides up for it

 

[Tommo1993]

Don’t know why Solanke wanted half an hour to line up a shot.

 

[HadjiChippo]

Much better start from Martinelli, but that finish was poor

 

[HadjiChippo]

Strikers should have a right to challenge keepers for the ball as long as they’re not leading with elbows and they’re targeting the ball in my opinion. Don’t think Solanke did anything wrong just made it harder for Raya.

Barely even touched him if at all. Nothing wrong with it I don't think.

Fucking yellow card happy refs these days, ruining the game

if that Bentancur one is a yellow in a nothing area of the pitch, you’d have 15 yellows a game

The thing is they do that but then they bottle giving second yellows.

 

[HadjiChippo]

What a massive overreaction to a normal foul

Wasn’t even a foul for me, fucking Porro acting like he’d been shot

 

[Nick]

Pathetic pushing and shoving.

"Examining the after math"

Nothing happened.

Need some of this

That Arsenal lineup is screaming for a Swedish No.9 in it.

 

[HadjiChippo]

Should we just start everyone on a yellow by default and save the hassle, Vicario’s got one now for an overreaction. Just let the game go ffs

 

[Tommo1993]

Examine the insignificant fairy scuffle

 

[HadjiChippo]

Only Tottenham could turn a goal kick into defending a corner so quickly

Persisting with passing the ball out from goal kicks is going to get them in trouble

So annoying, Comms acting like it's a borderline red. The RB makes a fair challenge and wins the ball. So fucking wet.

 

[Nick]

Another 2 bookings.

 

[Nuskyblue]

Wasn't that a 2 footer?

Edit* I need my eyes checked!

 

[HadjiChippo]

7 bookings by half time, this clown is just trying to out do the prick from the game last night.

And this hasn’t been a dirty game in my opinion.

Udogie & particularly Bentancur ones were harsh but the others can surely have no complaints.

 

[HadjiChippo]

Refs making himself centre of attention. All of those bookings, except probably Saliba running off with the ball, could’ve easily just been a warning and get on with it.

 

[HadjiChippo]

Pretty much all were first fouls in nothing areas of the pitch, just think we’re over policing it

and Vicario squaring up to a player who grabbed him isn’t a booking

 

[Nick]

Wonder if they have bets on.

 

[wingy]

Wonder if they have bets on.

Like Gus maybe, try there's someone I can't think of now, but definitely suspect?

 

[Nick]

And another.

Mike Dean now saying the threshold for a second yellow card is a lot higher. Fucking weird, a yellow card should be a yellow card?

 

[HadjiChippo]

Basically they just want the ability to dictate who gets sent off for whatever suits that game or situation without fans complaining about consistency

Exactly, it's weird.

If somebody is booked first time for doing something and somebody else does it who's on a booking, it should be a second yellow.

 

[Nick]

Timber should have had a second yellow for squaring up to the keeper, the same as the keeper.

 

[HadjiChippo]

Arsenal haven’t got started in second half

 

[HadjiChippo]

Was just thinking that myself, Timber did more than Vicario aswell in that head to head (both hands around collar)

 

[HadjiChippo]

Saka’s been the invisible man, Arsenal really miss Odegaard
