From the Beeb:
"We've now been shown 18 angles of the penalty incident and not one looks like a clear penalty to me."

Bruno onside, given as offside, no mention from commentators.

There's plenty to work on. We may lose by a few, we can't deal with the counter attack, but let's not pretend that the whole team are shit. We've played well and losing because Arsenal are cheats and the ref is useless.

Ref's must just think 'oh, it's a top 6 side, and I know they're better than the others, so that must have been a foul'. ****ing useless idiots.

We lose so often playing defensively, this change of style is refreshing, even If the result ends up the same. #godownfighting

Playing on the wrong wing perchance?

Don't think Bruno was offside there. Not like Sky to not make a discussion of it though.

Yep, I saw that, any top team, they would be analysing the **** out of that.

Knocky on at half time (won’t happen) and AJ on a plane to Tehran never too return!!!

Agree - his contribution today so far - absolutely nothing

His contribution so far this season? - next to nothing

Make a sub at half time. Put anyone on for him. Bye bye Ali J.

I'm not sure why people think VAR would work in our favour. It didn't in the FA cup semi.

Played well first half.

Despite their quality, this Arsenal side are here for the taking. All we need is a goal.

No reason for a ban.

CH might drop him for the next game though.

Why didn't we play like this more often?

Click to expand...

We have tried, but on the counter Bournemouth and Cardiff didn't miss a shot. Although we're making a fair effort going forward, Arsenal could have scored more (ignoring the fact that they shouldn't have scored the first).

Arsenal a bit off the pace today, but that said, Albion seem to be playing with more certainty. Can't believe we are seeing players committed in numbers.

I do wonder if bissouma has improved over the course of the season.
Seems to do the same thing now as in August - a positive run, good movement then inexplicably gives it away . And repeat

This is a much more promising and entertaining display than the backs to the wall displays against Wolves and Spurs. Our forward play has worried Arsenal and we might have had our own penalty.
