I say what I always say.... the referee has a choice. There is no hard and fast letter of the law.
Fuck this league man
commentator actually was on Trossard's side for once.
banduan
I noticed that too.. Said 'it probably shouldnt have been a booking'
banduan not Neville on Sky, he's calling him stupid. Sicario curse.
Same ref who didn't send off Kovacic in the same fixture last season
While it was a little stupid of Trossard to do that, he had already started his kicking motion when the whistle blew (it seemed).. ANd he immediately looked back like 'oh fuck'...

no the yellow was for excessive force. Leo was going for the ball... Commentator said there was nothing much in it.
USArsenal I just can't blame Trossard too much when earlier in this very game, nothing happened when Doku kicked it away. It's inconsistency - if you can't enforce it consistently, you can't punish some with a sending off.
We don't have a chance this season, we're against the officials too. Ffs
you just know city will equalize after haaland knocks someone over and runs in on goal to score
Absolute bullshit - we need to protest this as a club. Doku kicked it away earlier and nothingg.
League is sickening
banduan if it's for that, it's just as BS. You don't send someone off for that, particularly when the first yellow was so soft (and probably not a booking).
Come on lads, by the letter of the law and all that.
We all know this is for the good of the game.
Pointless league. I'd rather Arsenal were in the Championship. Worst league in the world.
How the fuck is that delaying the fucking restart. They gonna get the fucking ball back and take the free kick. Not like they fucking taking a quick 1. Fuck off.
I am a big proponent of Hanlon’s razor, that most things can be attributed to incompetence rather than malice, but this is just corrupt as ficked. No two ways about it
you can't play City a man down for 45 minutes. we will need to sub in all of White, Jorginho, Kiwior, Sterling and Jesus to have a chance.
It's a bullshit red card but I'm gonna go against the grain here and say that's absolutely stupid of Trossard. Everyone and his dogs know only Arsenal players are sent off for nonsense like that and then he goes and kicks the ball away. I am fuming at him, he has let the team down in my opinion.
Tactics it wasn't for kicking the ball according to my commentators.
Tactics the card was for excessive force according to the commentators
Tactics
It is retarded. Must be something off with our players. They keep making these dumb mistakes, knowing the refs are horrible.
Tactics same for me, yes these get treated differently across matches but I would hope right now Arsenal players with our experience would be instructed and make sure you don't even give them the option. Trossard does boot the ball after the whistle and it's a mistake in the current climate to give the ref that option.
Trossard is a moron , hear the whistle just stop , he knows he is on a yellow , he knows they fucked us with Rice. What a stupid fool
