Unreal this was

Morgan Rogers knocks the ball past Mikel Merino, who hauls him down. The Arsenal midfielder - on a yellow - should probably watch his step from now on.

I mean...WTF???
What a terrible non-call.

Brown envelopes are involved. Again.

Key moment of that match too. They go to 10
there and it is game on.

It’s remarkable how many niggly fouls Gabriel gets away with. I can’t help wondering if Romero would fare as well as the Sainted Gooner does.

Also, why wasn’t Saka booked for the trip to stop Villa breaking a while back? If that’s not a ‘tactical foul’ then I don’t know what is.

Subjective?

Did anyone see the post-match interview with Gabriel and Jesus?

Ridiculous how that wasn’t a second yellow. Almost as ridiculous as a player elbowing the opponents goalkeeper and yet the goal standing.

Archie gray was booked for less v Palace than Merino did v Rogers.

I’m incapable of being objective when it comes to the Scum. But it’s not my job to be. It IS the officials job to be objective and I don’t think they are.
