What the actual fuck is that red card

[-] TheBig2023Meltdown@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

That is some fucking BULLSHIT. HOWWWWW!????!?!?

[-] TheBig2023Meltdown@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Fucking infuriating cannot be overturned because it's a yellow. Fuck that

[-] merc@sh.itjust.works 7 points 1 year ago

So, that's 3 left back options that are unavailable for the next PL match (interestingly, none of them are really left backs).

  • Zinchenko: short-term injury
  • Timber: long-term injury
  • Tomiyasu: suspension

I wonder who option #4 is? Probably Kiwior, even though he also isn't a left back?

[-] coygsu@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

It should be Tierney but it will be Kiwior

I would like to see Zinchenko and Trossard come on... This experiment isn't quite working

That is not a foul. Holy fuck was that a bad call.

[-] throbbingpens@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

That wasn’t even a foul + Ayew actually has made two yellow card fouls and is still on the pitch.

I don't want to overreact, but Zinchenko came on and we basically started controlling the game, even with 10 men

[-] ironeaglebird@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

Now if only Zinchenko could stay healthy. We're a different team when he's on.

Oh wow, look at that! What a promising counter, if not for Eddie being fouled. I wonder if there's something that we could do to discourage players from doing that?

Another perfect last grasp tackle from Saliba.

[-] ironeaglebird@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Followed by Eddie sending the ball over the bar.

I just want a comfortable win. Hopefully the upcoming weekend but I'll settle for it being the United game.

[-] SpottieOttie13@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

What a bullshit second yellow card. Ref has lost his fucking mind.

[-] ironeaglebird@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

Roy Hodgson seems like a good sport.

[-] HaleEndGrad@lemmygrad.ml 4 points 1 year ago

Partey man, I'm telling you. He's itching to give the ball away.

[-] LotrOrc@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

I don't get why we are playing with partey in defense and tomiyasu on his weaker side.

I get zinchenko is just coming back from injury but Tierney can't even make the bench? Put partey in with rice and have havertz come in off the bench if needed.

We don't look very fluid right now and having partey cleaning up in the midfield behind rice and odegaard would be really useful

[-] sensiblepuffin@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Arteta looks fucking pissed

[-] merc@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 year ago

So, Arsenal effectively finished the game with 3 CBs, 4 CMs a winger, and a ?Forward? (Havertz)

  • CB: Gabriel, Saliba, Kiwior
  • CM: Partey, Rice, Jorginho, Zinchenko
  • Saka, Havertz

Interesting for a team that wasn't playing a 3-at-the-back formation at any point.

ONE NIL TO THE ARSENAL

[-] sensiblepuffin@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

So they're still not punishing goalkeepers for taking five years to take a goal kick?

[-] MHPengwingz@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

There was no fucking contact wth

[-] HaleEndGrad@lemmygrad.ml 3 points 1 year ago

There you go, proper Arsenal matchday.

Yo Mikel's hair has gotten more gray

[-] ironeaglebird@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

The manager job taking 20 years off his life.

[-] sensiblepuffin@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

I'm very curious to hear what Arteta has to say about the anti-time-wasting stuff they've implemented.

Oh thank god we held on.

Mikel, pleaaaase do not try anything new Saturday. We were very lucky CP don't have any finishers.

I'm very ticked off about Tomiyasu's two yellows.

[-] HaleEndGrad@lemmygrad.ml 3 points 1 year ago

Partey did well after the red card

Rice lose a contact lense? I never consider footballers have them.

Dear Lord, what a tackle

[-] sensiblepuffin@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

It's kind of funny to watch defenders dance along while marking Martin, and then stumble because they can't keep up

Feel like this one of these games where we need to shut this game down quick...Palace is definitely waiting for a mistake

[-] MHPengwingz@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Love seeing Declan and Tomi shouting instructions on the pitch...

And there goes the Saliba chant
