Arsenal playing some lovely football, but possibly over playing at times, if they get one soon I can see them getting two or three, if they don't the nerves are going to rise!

Thanks Paul you're a star!

I'm with you but will give him a season to settle. Still has a lot to prove.

No complaints , straight red all day long.

Played 19 games, had 19 shots of which 3 have hit the target and 1 went in. 1 assist. 65% pass completion rate. Has tried to make 52 tackles in which hes received 2 reds and 2 yellows.

Thatll be 35m please lol

It was one of those when player felt contact and went down. Cant blame the player and I would have been annoyed if it wasn't awarded for us tbf.

Why?

Xhaka needs a shoeing, Arsenal totally in control until his red card and then 2 controversial penalties,

Burnley didn't look like scoring until the sending off.

Good fun for the nuetral :rofl:

Pure class from Sanchez and on balance of play deserved the win.

Burnley will wonder how they've got nothing against us this season. Very lucky to win both matches!

Question for anyone that knows the rules:

The Arsenal guy was in an offside position when the ball was kicked, but before he had anything to do with play he moved back onside then went for the ball. Still offside?

By the laws he was offside, Linesman's error.

YES

I don't understand how he got it so wrong. 10 yards away. Total clear vision and bang in line. Horrendous error. Should have a long rest and rest of the season being trained.

Lucky,lucky Arsenal.

Given the late goals I agree but by every stat in the book Arsenal deserved 6 points.

 

[USER1999]

Exiting stuff. I was getting bored until xakhas stupidity.

 

[Slime]

Why?

Because the Arsenal player was offside ................. not a penalty.

 

[Papas1982]

Very unlucky for Burnley. Thought got nothing tackles warranted pens. But Arsenals was offside so they got lucky.

As to stats meaning Arsenal deserved to win. Rubbish. Of course you'd expect to have Orem possession and shots. But unless you score more you don't deserve anything. And in clear (fair chance) it should have been 1-1.
