Champion's League looking a real possibility.


Ref? How?

maybe he thinks they woulda done better with 9 men (drinkwater sent off and supended for 3 games) , arsenal having a penalty or two , not scoring because morgan fouled ozil before the penalty/vardy just throwing himself into monreal , wasilewski not getting sent off for that foul on monreal at the end, and atkinson taking that long to give simpson a yellow after he fouled alexis like 5 times in the first half.

leicester came in with a game plan to rotationally foul to stop us but simpson and his team paid the price for a gameplan that has worked against us in the past only because referees allow it to happen. Not on this day


Word. And the mahrez dive should've gotten a yellow.

Well if you think that 1 or both of the fouls that Simpson made were bookable offences I think you must be an arsenal fan. They were fouls but no worse than others in the game and a lot less serious than some (the Koscielny lunge at Mahrez for example). If it wasn't Arsenal and they hadn't been given a penalty against them the worst Simpson would have had is a yellow for repeat offending.

I won't get into it with you because you clearly are an Arsenal fan and won't see it the same as I do. Arsenal rolled around on the floor from the outset - especially Sanchez - as they often do. they tried extremely hard to get a player booked or sent off throughout the game. They suceeded very early in the second half and then managed to scrape a lucky win with the last kick of the match (96th minute despite only having 4 minutes added). Arsenal were outplayed in the first half despite having so much possession they had less shots than Leicester and couldn't even get them on target. The sending off meant there'd be only one winner but amazingly that nearly wasn't the case. You were, in the end, lucky to beat a 10 man Leicester team. I don't really think you have the bottle to win the league which means Tottenham must be the favourites to do it now.

The Arsenal player histrionics after the goal - 3 players jumping into the crowd - for which they should have been booked, I'm sure you'll agree, and the tweeting from inside the changing room after the match further emphasise how important a WIN AT HOME against Leicester really was to them. In the end We're still top and have a good chance of finishing higher than the Arse. :lol: :wink:

We'll see in 12 games time

Perhaps we can hear what neutral fans thought. Arsenal fans have never been really balanced in their views.

The refereeing was horrible and it's a damn shame.
The pk was too soft and probably shouldn't have been called. The two yellows for Simpson were both too soft.

The despair Arsenal fans get when they have to admit Arsenal may not be winning this season--of all seasons--is unimaginable to the average football fan

Oh blah blah blah. If we win, we win. If not, what can you do? Leiscester lost to this "bottled up" Arsenal squad. That's all we are talking about here.

If you don't win, never mind, there is always a next season. That's what keeps you guys alive for past 11 seasons.

Um I wasn't throwing shots or blaming the refs that was a leiscester fan. In fact, look up at the past few posts and you'll see that it's everyone else talking **** about Arsenal. I think it's the Turks online, cause ozil seems fine but y'all are some morons.

not even just this instance, arsenal could lose to stoke, zagreb or barcelona and all you hear is that ref is the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd reason for that loss. almost as if there is some secret society in world football that gets together year around to sabotage arsenal.

you are going to upset new chief moderator with that language

monreal was fouled at 93:30 are you actually suggesting the ref should just call off the game? how can you even complain about time the only reason it didn't end earlier was because of your teams time wasting. No comment on drinkwater's disgusting challenge ? I thought so.

And you are right the arsenal team shouldn't celebrate a last min winner that could be HUGE in a title race they should just walk off lol. Every damn team takes pictures now , its the age of documenting everything on social media.

Hmm. It is either Baphomet will do something or I can certainly handle it in a nice way.

Let's give Bapho some time. If not, we are Turks, we handle people like you on the street everyday while growing up :)
