What's happened to this rule about attacking players having to be 1 meter from the wall at free-kicks? Brighton had players right next to Arsenal's wall just then and similarly did from the free-kick they scored from at Anfield.

How many times are brighton going to get away with pulling shirts off in the area

CliffyG · 5 Dec 2019 at 20:46

So 4 potential penalties already, 3 blatant shirt pulls and a shove in the back. Other than that we are toilet.

Many, there’s been at least 4 blatant ones that haven’t been pulled up.

It has felt like we've had the rough end of the stick from VAR this season, but I can just see the first Arsenal shirt tug on a Brighton player ending up in a pen here.

This football is joyless. I'd give an arm for a Rosicky in the Arsenal midfield.

Brighton > Arsenal

explicit4u · 5 Dec 2019 at 20:51

No surprise they've taken the lead, this is a pathetic performance so far.

Get in

CliffyG · 5 Dec 2019 at 20:54

Bad team picked again. No shape no cohesion. Not unexpected that they have had more attempts and scored.

Minibiker · 5 Dec 2019 at 20:59

Henderson not playing to the whistle and now Sheff Utd 2 nil down

The 2nd toon goal will be a talking point

Credit to the ref and Shelvey for playing on. Awful from the linesman.

BaZ87 · 5 Dec 2019 at 21:01

Credit to Brighton for exposing Arsenal but Arsenal are so open in midfield, it's incredible how much of the ball Brighton are getting between Arsenal's midfield and defence.

Much better lineup by ljungberg, happy to see torreria getting a start

Diddnt make a difference now did it? At this rate I don't even think pep guadiola or klopp could get a win out of this team. Diabolical

sneakysnail · 5 Dec 2019 at 21:13

step 1 would be to forget Ozil exists. Emery might have been awful but at least he got that much right.

CliffyG · 5 Dec 2019 at 21:18

Ozil should be a number 10. Having him on one wing and Auba on the other one is retarded. No idea what Willock is doing and Xhaka is always completely bypassed.

Flaevius · 5 Dec 2019 at 21:23

That'll do.

Keep the pressure on.

robfosters · 5 Dec 2019 at 21:28

Is this the same team?

nemtizz · 5 Dec 2019 at 21:38

Linesman really are stealing a living now with VAR in place.
