      City perhaps understandably not at their free flowing best but that was down to the way Moyes set West Ham up and so many changes after a midweek CL game.

      Great Champions come through such games with a win which is exactly what City did. 20 straight wins is more than impressive. Bayern’s all time record of 23 straight wins is coming under pressure.

        Haha our refs are great when it comes to comedy, never a dull moment.

          I would say that the ref has said wait for the whistle, in which case both teams then have to be ready for the restart of the game, he’s then blown his whistle not realising the keeper is still organising the wall, hence his second whistle to stop it when he realise his mistake. Why he needed VAR to sort it is the question, he should just have explained and had the kick retaken.

            Cont. as this bit didn’t seem to send

            I didn’t see the actual incident live, so I don’t 100% know if the ref signalled to wait for the whistle, but it is the only logical explanation…..Pagan

              Brighton kicked the free kick and scored a split second before he blew so it rightly had to be retaken but before it was retaken he for some reason changed his mind and signalled for a goal but then var reversed the decision again, so Brighton eventually had to retake the free kick but this time it was saved, crazy 15 minutes.

                I saw the free kick, but not the bit leading up to it, so I didn’t see if the ref signalled to say wait for the whistle. Although it’s not in the laws of the game, when the ref says wait for the whistle, they make sure both teams are ready, if they don’t they could be accused of bias. Personally I think waiting for the defending team to set up a wall takes away any advantage the attacking should have, which really isn’t right…..Pagan

                    Hello Nine, cheers for putting this on. What’s happened with Mav, is he ok? I haven’t seen him post for a while on here?

                      Another call chalked off. Ok, it might not have been Tielamans, but thought it was a trip just inside the box.

                        What a turnaround. Come On Gunners!!!!! Good call VAR on the Pen, second time round.

                          I am probably wrong but I thought it was the second challenge in the area that brought him down and by a different player.(first penalty)

                            Rodgers’ team have tried to conserve their energy with less possession, but so far it’s backfired. Good on Arsenal really working their way through the gears and find a 3rd. Hopefully for them, they can kill this game off and avoid conceding for a nervy finish.

                              Barnes carried off for an over-stretch. I often wonder whether it’s more to do with the modern day footwear.

                                65mins There goes that ultimate cheat Vardy trying to con the referee and diving over. Really can’t stand him.

                                  I think you are totally correct. The lack of support with the modern footwear and the lack of give in the pitches I believe is responsible for a number of injuries.

                                    Another injury; this time Johnny Evans. Playing in Europe on a Thursday then preparing for a Premier League game is no gimme as Leicester are finding. To be fair to the Gunners, they themselves playing in the Europa yet have had more influence on the match today.

                                      Adlab @1:28, yeah I think they’re trying to catch Arsenal on the counter. Vardy will be looking for those loose balls down the channels.

                                          Arsenal beating Leicester 3-1 away is a great result for them and the rest of the chasing pack looking for a top 4 finish.

                                            Good Win Arsenal. We know City and Title’s Done. The other places look interesting.

                                            A Chelsea win today could bring more hope for them a others too.
