The Footie Thread

Walton just clarified that if he’d of gone for a tackle and fouled him it would be Yellow and Pen, but because he never tried to play the ball it’s Red and a Pen.?‍

I've just listened to mouth piece Walton, luckily I can remember his refereeing performances over the years.

But Rules are Rules.

It's a stupid rule. He hasn't tried to play the ball nor tried to blatantly whip him. If he does that he gets a yellow and they still get the pen ?‍♂It's hilarious.

As much as I'd like to blame Luiz, I dont think its his fault.

he doesnt get the benefit of the doubt here, whats that 3 straight reds in 18 mths?

I love Keown saying Luiz needs to learn. He is 6 months (less?) from possible retirement, how much time is left?

Where they all that harsh?

What annoys me is that’s a red card but blatantly pulling a player back to stop an attack is a yellow?

Wonder strike what a goal that cheered me up a little

 

[fundy]

clown disease is catching lol

Runarsson in nets next game too oh joy

 

[USER1999]

Now Leno. Probably. Jeez, this is a stuffstorm.

 

[paddyc]

We have another clown

Was never happy when we let Martinez go to villa.better keeper than Leno without a doubt

Hindsight seems to agree with you, hard to judge based on him playing less than 20 games for us in 10 years. Lot made of his form from a very small sample

Interesting stat from BBC Sport....

"Arsenal have received nine Premier League red cards under Mikel Arteta. No other club has had more than three PL sendings off since Arteta took charge of his first match at the Gunners (from Boxing Day 2019 onwards)."

 

[USER1999]

I am fine with Leno. This storm started with the idiot clown getting sent off. Anything after that is just fluff. Leno is the better keeper.

It's a shame, as it was a good game, and Arsenal were playing some nice footy.

This has to be the final nail in Crustys coffin, surely. No way back, no newcontract. Otherwise all the good that has been done I this transfer window has been a waste of time.

Horror tackle that

 

[Orikoru]

What a way to mark your first start - sent off inside two minutes. Bit over-keen to impress maybe.

Theres a quote on the BBC site saying he put a transfer request during the Jan window which was turned down. Could well be on his way now.

Really? That's a bit strange, I thought he was only a youngster just breaking through.

Defoe did that when we went down in 2003

Transfer request, denied so got sent off 3 times in 10 games
