Seen it on 3 different cameras. It’s well worth an investigation.

Agree... No matter if Robertson did touch is arm or not, an official can't react like that.
Looking back on it now, Robertson did him a favour by not overreacting. Imagine how certain other players go down/roll around. Then what.
It’s certainly worthy of investigating Brian, I agree. But I do think that bottom bit of footage Phil has posted looks a little suspicious.
We’ll see what happens but if the linesman suggests he was merely shaking himself free of Robertson’s grip I’m not sure much will happen.

I can't see an excuse for the linesman there. It's more than a defensive move or to shake off being held/grabbed (if he was). Just so weird to see - almost as if he's got tourette's!
He shouldn't get such a high profile gig again imo.

Not sure if Stu pops his head in at all these days but love to hear his thoughts on todays game?
At 2-0, TAA and Henderson arguing, home crowd seemed very very quiet and you were there for the taking and then the brainless Xhaka woke you all up (team and crowd) and it seemed the game changed completely, especially as you then scored before half time. It may have happened at half time anyway but still......
Second half felt like we were hanging on desperately (yet still dangerous on the counter) and game could have ended up as anything
Fair or see it different from the home crowd?

I wonder if today is the start of The Arsenal blowing the league this season?
They were comfortable and in control until the Xhaka/TAA incident which seemed to lift the mickey's.
In the end they were lucky to get a point.
I forgot it was Easter until Jesus died and comeback to life about 5 times today.

Robertson shouldn’t be putting his hands on the lino. Looks to me like the lino is just trying to shrug him off.
If the lino is being investigated and not getting another high profile game, then Robertson should be facing a few game ban.

It’s a big two points dropped from Arsenal- we all know that City are a team that can just roll off the wins.
The gap is 6 points but that’s going to disappear very quickly.
The city then Chelsea will be huge
City do have a big April with the CL but they could finish the month 3 points clear
Once Chaka had his incident it changed the game and Arsenal looked lost and had zero energy , Ramsdale kept them in it.
Tierney though is a poor ref

This would never had happened if Robertson has just gone off at half time like he is supposed to.
Obvious I know and we do not know what was said or how threatened the linesman felt.

Never Arsenals to blow, think we were 5th or 6th favourite at the start of the season, massively overperformed to be where we are, playing some of the best most entertaining football in the league, will still be a massive overperformance if we finish 2nd to this City side (as has always been likely)
You a united, spurs or chelsea fan from the homecounties John?

After 15 games it was certainly Arsenal's to lose, in the driving seat and have gone on to being in perfick position to win it.
You may be overperforming on pre season expectations but the fact remains, its in Arsenal's hands.
I'm a United fan, followed my old man as you do.

Please don’t ask to see my tatts 👍
Very surprised with the game today. I thought Liverpool were going to get battered. Yet at the end were unlucky not to have won. When Arsenal Could off been 3-1 up At one point. A very good game for the neutral. I was also very surprised at Arsenals performance during the second half. They started to look a bit leggy. Come what may the title has got interesting again for the City fans.

Difficult to tell, but he’s definitely approaching the lino in an aggressive manner. Robertson shouldn’t be anywhere near him.

Oh i bet that was a lively household in the 90's/00'sMy old man was a spurs fan, worked for them when i was a kid, not everyone did
For the record i'm a Oxford United fan, not a Manchester United glory hunter like the majority of them in and around London.
