Arteta didn’t say one word about the ref but this has been the topic for the past 3 days. ESPN is complaining about Arteta while British press is on about dark arts 😂😂😂

[briandundas]

How is Arteta crying guys. He's bit his tongue and said no comment. What kind of Anti-Gunner baloney is this? You're proving our point. Thanks.

[LarryEze-ltkq]

Are you guys discussing what Arteta said or just what you imagine he said?

[douglaskyomya]

What happened to the celebration police when Mancity equalized!

[jesuslover]

ESPN "pundits" are a complete joke and disgrace. I thought I had them blocked.

[TheNnadozie]

The point is, why was Duko not booked. Why was Bernardo silver moving dribbling the ball away so Arsenal won't start play. Why are you not talking about that. You guys blame Arsenal and Arteta. I can't believe Arteta was the one that being talked about. I promise you, if Arteta mentioned Ref not letting walker get back in position, ESPN will go, why are you blaming. I'm convinced ESPN got some Saudi money.

[isam]

What are these guys saying arteta has literally said nothing about this. There is no quote of him complaining

[abdisharif]

As Arsenal fans we understand why Graig always talks bad about KING 👑 HAVERTZ 😅 it’s coz he left Chelsea in turmoil 😂😂

[TheTruth]

Arsenal fans are not complaining that their players getting book for kicking the ball away they complaining that other players from other team is kicking the ball away but they don’t get book

[sockinvaders]

The problem is precisely the fact that these stupid refs don't think they've made a mistake. So we should send people off now for such, tiny, insignificant things. Its pathetic. You don't see decisions like this on the continent. Or mls. Or in sunday league. No sane ref would think a righteous punishment for kicking a ball less than 1 second after the whistle is to make the game be 10 vs 11 for an entire half. Every normal ref would show some COMMON SENSE.

[souravshyam]

I wish Kovacic thought the same thing when he was on a yellow last year - same fixture at Emirates! That point in time, the referee was suddenly trying to keep 11 players on the pitch even though he was making ankle breaking tackles-left right and centre.
How on earth do pundits have pea sized brains - they were defending that decision by the referee and Kovacic less than a year back and now suddenly Leo T needs to be more careful?

[cadizking]

Shaka is a clown. He always have something negative to say about Arsenal.

[saidsharif]

Arsenal's first goal came from a FK taken 10 yards ahead of the foul they say. Now let's look into WHY that happened.

After Partey was fouled Bernardo Silva dribbled the ball away 15 yards from where the foul occured. No yellow for delaying the restart there though.

[kasimshaikh]

Craig is such a liar
Trossard kicked the ball 1 sec after the ref blew whistle it happened so quick. But he claimed he kicked the ball long after the whistle. Secondly Bernardo Silva was laying of the ground so how was it going to waste time. Man City were in no position to take the free-kick. More importantly Trossard didn't randomly kick the ball with Martinelli Arsenal had a great opportunity to counter attack.

[sylvesterdzimiri]

lol I think the point is no football supporter wants to watch those type of games.. at least I want to watch an 11 v 11 game instead of players being sent off for nit picks and can’t believe ESPN is supporting this

Literally Micheal Oliver said last year he did not send Kovacic because he did not want to disturb the flow of the game but for this decision he did could not wait to send trossard which of course messed the game up and the second half was terrible because of that

[hackerhacker]

I have seen on do many occasions this very same Craig yelling Arsenal do not have any character or mental strength but now he crying when Arsenal are showing fighting spirit

[briandundas]

Craig says it's extreme discipline by Haaland to fire the ball off Gabby's head. OK.

[jj]

28 incidents this season where the play has been delayed, only 4 yellow cards handed out, 3 handed to Arsenal resulting in 2 red cards. Says volumes.

[winter_silhouette]

Craig is forgetting that it was Bernardo Silva who dribbled away with the ball and moved it up the pitch. No yellow card was shown. Arsenal took a quick free kick and it ended in a goal.

[Ken-Ijay]

Bunch of drunk and old analysts. Arteta never mentioned any of those things you demented analysts are saying. He only said, " No comment."
