I'm not sure where this comes from, we rarely do that. The attack is inept, yes, but we do try.

Just because they are defensively compact doesn't mean they put 11 behind the ball. The wingers track back is the only real difference vs other teams

Ok that's the angle I saw. So my question remains. This was called a penalty on the field and overturned by VAR when there's clear contact? That doesn't line up with the point of VAR at all to overturn clear and obvious errors. Really strange decision.

How much Arsenal do you watch for not being an Epl fan?


Keep going man, Arsenal derangement syndrome on full display.

I answered his question based on the assessment made by the referee, nothing more

That can only become a lie by a deranged person or someone who is removed from reality

Yet Arsenal are 16th in the premier league at scoring from open play. That's the issue. If there isn't a corner/set piece they do not create enough. Everyone can see that.

Arsenal won 4-0 at the emirates in the group stage. I would expect them go for it. But Arsenal are still in the title race so have to play the starters against Fulham while AM can rest everyone this weekend

Is this where Arsenal fans start testing out the excuses to use if they lose?

I am not expecting them to win anything. But there is a reason Premier league teams tend to struggle in the late champions league knockout stages.

Actually you simply said "there was basically no contact" which has since been proven false. You made no mention of that being the refs opinion. If that was your intention, you should have made it clear. Words matter, as a lawyer you know that.

The pitch should meet regulations. Even in the championship.
