I'd saying calling him lucky to be on the pitch is downplaying it. In my opinion that has to be deemed cynical, because whilst there is a small chance he gets to the ball first (he doesn't) coming in like that is saying either I get this ball or more likely, I get the player and take them out of the play and that makes it cynical. Anyway, always good for there to be some controversy that doesn't involve us. You should always be able to look at a tackle and apply the necessary penalty regardless of what comes before or after it. It's so easy to do, playing advantage is supposed to be playing advantage to the attacking team. Here the advantage is clearly in favour of the defensive team. As Ange has said: "I never have and never will talk to a referee about the rules of the game. I was told when I grew up to respect the officials" Talk the talk: “We’ve been screaming for it for the last two months, it’s happened to us consistently. Have a look at your games. We’ve asked the officials and they’ve said if you play advantage, as long as it’s not a cynical tackle then the yellow card does not get paid. To me, that was pretty clear." Walk the walk:

That's all they were hoping for with their constant Allardyce get it in the box balls.

Yeah that's right. Since he arrived he's only missed 7 games. That in itself is fantastic.

Too easy.

Nice Longers

Next goal from hopeful balls into the box wins it.

Fullbacks are super important positions to the way we play, he gets plenty of time on the ball.

He's done remarkably well and great confidence shown in him by Howe. Schär back on the weekend. Will be interesting to see who his preferred pairing is going forward.

Arsenal have become Stoke/Bolton (Allardyce).

I'd say Eddie will start with a strong team, look to get ahead then swap in the youth.

That's given as a yellow if it's the other way.

Surely he gets a run on the weekend? Isak to start.

Too early to sit back this back?

Nice game Gordon.

Finally get a free kick

Good defending Burn

We're looking a little stretched at the minute. Ah yes, here's the subs.

Stuart Robson has been pretty fair in his commentary despite being ex-Arsrnal.

So sorry Kai Havertz

£200m

Yeah baby! GORDO (and Isak)

Good on the ref for finally not buying a Trossard dive.

Was a foul but never a yellow
