Ref tells Saka to hurry up and take the corner with stoppage time up. Saka does his usual slow-walk to run down the clock. The ref calmly waits, and the absolute second Saka gets into position? He blows for half-time.
Absolute cinema. Masterclass game management for a final.
Arsenal got so used to getting away with murder from Premier League refs that when someone actually enforces the rules, they think they’re being robbed.
Credit where it’s due tho, they played some demonic football to get here. But if PL refs weren't so intimidated by Arteta’s touchline tantrums and fooled by their theatrics, Arsenal wouldn’t be parading a PGMOL trophy today.
Justice served in Europe! 🫶🏼
Really good thing he only elbowed Spence in the face and his hand didn’t brush through Spence’s hair otherwise he could’ve been sent off for violent conduct.
PGMOL handed it to them. Every club has a video of a foul that should have been a freekick, pen or disallowed goal. This one was for their 6 season cycle agenda.
JEFF POWELL: Arsenal's tainted title should be marked with an asterisk. No wonder conspiracy theories about the establishment favouring clubs are rife, given the outside help they've had https://t.co/57vL1QTfIf
Arsenal can’t even win convincing against Burnley, I just can’t respect this title win that much. The worst quality team to win the league, and that’s completely fine. Their fans just shouldn’t make out they’re this special team when they really aren’t
I’ve never seen a season where one team gets all the decisions in their favour, without receiving a red or conceding a penalty, doing everything as possible to help them win the league.
This is by far the worst season I’ve ever watched. It’s corruption.
