Zubimendi had just 10 goals in 6 seasons at Real Sociedad. He has 6 in 6 months at Arsenal.

What on earth is happening with refereeing in the Premier League right now? Every weekend it feels like the bar for consistency gets dragged even lower.
Take yesterday alone. Newcastle’s penalty saga was farcical. The first one goes to VAR, there’s "minimal contact", yet the player gets booked for diving and the penalty is waved away, even after a VAR review. Minutes later, there’s even less contact in a similar situation, and this time the penalty is awarded and Dan Burn is sent off. You genuinely could not script it.
Then there’s the Liverpool game. Robertson ducks out of the way, does nothing to interfere with play, yet somehow VAR finds him guilty of “making an obvious action”. The same referee, Chris Kavanagh, once overturned a similar offside decision involving Bernardo Silva after checking the monitor. Same scenario, same official, completely different outcome. How can that possibly make sense?
We are told VAR was meant to bring clarity and eliminate controversy, but all it has done is hand out confusion and chaos. The PGMOL under Howard Webb looks more like a circus act than a governing body. These are professionals with access to every angle, every replay, every rulebook explanation, and yet they still cannot apply the basics evenly.
Fans are losing patience because it’s not just about one call anymore. It’s about trust, fairness, and the feeling that the biggest league in the world is being officiated like a Sunday park game. It’s embarrassing, and it’s killing the joy of watching football. Something has to change.
Starmer didn't mention Kemi Badenoch once in his Parties closing speech...... it was all just FARAGE obsessed hate speech....

According to Gary Neville Arsenal had the handbrake on last week, when they put a defender on after their equaliser. Today, when they put a defender on after their equaliser, they threw the kitchen sink at it.
