I cant believe im saying this. Man city got absolutely robbed. The epl referees are disastrous. This reminded me of a video of the danish league where the referee blew a whistle by mistake on an advantage play when the guy was through on goal and was extremely apologetic. Our refs will never show such class.

Btw I don’t support man city and this is the result i was seriously hoping for as an arsenal supporter. But how do you mess up so bad? And no apologies at all? Geez who tf do these refs think they are?

    Robbed of a chance, not the game. There was no guarantee Grealish was going to score from that.

    It was a bad call, but there’s been so many this season so it’s not like it’s only impacted City.

      Grealish 10/10 times cuts back in that situation even though he has a yard of space

    Basically, players go down after a foul so often now that an advantage is so rare the ref has forgotten what to do about it

    Oh booohoo. If Arsenal and Liverpool slip up next week they could be top again. It’s not that bad! Geez.

    100%. Shoulda let play continue. Maybe the refs are in Spurs’ pocket for these big matches?

    Ah well - couldn’t have happened to a better squad.

    Edit: Clearly the sarcasm in the last sentence didn’t come through, ahaha.

    I wanted Spurs to win that but that was an appalling decision.

    He even played Grealish on. If he was concerned for Haaland, then why didn’t he stop the game immediately?

    Maybe, just maybe the “pl corrupt, fixing it for city” whining will stop. Aaaaaahahaha, never going to happen. Next time a decision goes against Liverpool or Arsenal the conspiracy nut jobs will conveniently forget about this game.

    Can i say i dont give a fk if man city messed up their chances? As an arsenal supporter i was so glad they messed sm shit up.

    But seriously its not right for such horrendous calls to be made in the EPL ffs. And theres 0 humility from the refs. Maybe grealish will miss or score, who knows. The fked up part is we wld nvr know cos of the poor decisions
