@Sewelld0629@ZacDjellab There were 7 penalties given for grappling as of March 2nd per the BBC. Including one against West Ham. So you don’t have the “bitter” excuse - you’re just incorrect.
@Sewelld0629@ZacDjellab Dunno - maybe literally ever non Arsenal pundit, etc? Never see fouls given for grappling is comical. I can pull numerous including multiple from this season against West Ham. Dunk and Paqueta the easiest. Your point doesn’t bear water.
@Sewelld0629@ZacDjellab This explanation is so dumb because the outfield on outfield players contact did cross the threshold. What the fuck are you talking about
@Sewelld0629@ZacDjellab the weird reiteration of the outfield point is not saying anything lol. congrats - yes - that is true. it still doesn’t change the numerous fouls in the box on west ham players on the same action. we can keep going in this exact same circle all you want but ive made my point lol
@Sewelld0629@ZacDjellab But once again you’re just pretending that concurrent fouls on Pablo, Todibo, and Mavropanos didn’t occur. I don’t understand your argument
@Sewelld0629@ZacDjellab This is just a roundabout conversation lol - it isn’t in isolation. The events happened together you can’t just pretend that away
@Sewelld0629@ZacDjellab This is why I said the argument is asinine. Your point can’t be that the Arsenal fouls aren’t fouls. They can all be foul play - which makes it a wash. The box is a melee every corner and there are compilations circulating of about 20 examples of Arsenal doing worse this season.
@Sewelld0629@ZacDjellab I’ll leave the clear & obvious point because that’s more on VAR generally.
The play didn’t happen in isolation. There were 2-3 players tugging on Pablo including a man not looking at the ball full hugging him. Those are fouls. Mavropanos was tackled. Thus no reason to overturn.
There’s a foul on todibo, mavropanos AND the West Ham goalie. But they rule it out for an arm across the goalie.
Fair play Arsenal it’s a huge result and guaranteed them the title but I don’t wanna hear winging about refs after that and the atleti game. They’re getting away with murder.
