    Arsenal are a disgrace here. Gamesmanship all you want, but 7 minutes Injury Time is nowhere near what should be added. Every minute someone is down with cramp.

    No sure what folk wanted Arsenal to do second half. I hate Arteta but that was a bawhair from a defensive masterclass second half. A point is a great result all things considered. Did folk want Arteta to do an Ange and still go all out attack, which would have undoubtedly ended in defeat. There seems to be a snobbery about football these days in the sense that if you win but don’t play expansive football then it’s no good enough.

    Referee had a shocker near the end. Stopping play when Raya tried to put it when Timber was down with cramp and it stayed in. Should have been play on. Then shat it at the end because there should have been a minute or two to play but wanted it finished because it was boiling over.

    Arsenal are a bit dull tbh, although City are awful to watch too, they pass for the sake of passing, nothing up wings. Just so boring.

    Haaland has got away with being charged for throwing the ball at Gabriel's head. A scandalous decision and it's hard not to think that if a lesser player from one of the smaller clubs had done the same to Haaland then they WOULD have been punished.

    Crazy stat after the game in the studio. that half was actually the longest the ball was actually in play in the premier league this season. Felt watching it that there was constant stoppages but obviously not. Arsenals constants complaints or * about just obviously irked city and also the officials

    I was suprised he wasn't sent off, I'd view it as violent conduct. It's also really * childish.

    I don't see what else it can be seen as. By rights Haaland should be suspended for 1, 2 or even 3 games but now he's not what's the betting he scores a good few goals in those matches, possibly even decisive goals? It may well be the case that what Haaland does in these games he shouldn't really be available for has a meaningful, possibly even crucial impact on whether City win the title. It's a really disgraceful decision not to punish him.

    It's not violent conduct surely :giggle1: Unsportsmanlike behaviour and a yellow would have been fine

    He's deliberately thrown a football at an opposing player's head. It should be a red card and it astonishes me that anybody other than a City fan would think it's not. Trossard was sent-off in the same game(I know it was 2 yellows) for far less.

    Wonder why Foden isn't starting games for City, he was their best player last season.

    McCoist puts me right off watching the games he does commentary on (which is now practically every fecking game these days) with his constant habit of stating the fecking obvious or repeating the same * over and over again.
