awooga83 It was a clash of heads in the box. How many times do you see a player head the ball and get hit by another player tryna head it and go down and get a penalty? Happens 5 times a game and penalties are never given.

I think your argument is that Pedro knocked the ball past Saliba with the head and then got taken down by Saliba with his head? But they were both just going for the ball and Saliba got a little nick on him and he went down like he'd been shot. Saliba didn't take him out like Kulu did Gordon and that contact was deemed accidental so why wasn't Saliba's???

    I can’t be bothered by the penalty when we struggle to create enough chances to score two goals. Fuck all created in the second half and we’ve been incredibly lucky this season with so many goals coming from set pieces…..which was never going to be sustainable

    Panda a player can be going for the ball and is late.. That's still often given as a penalty if someone caught them on the feet. I didn't really think it was the same type of challenge as the Newcastle one personally. It was harsh no doubt but I think it can be within the law around just being a late challenge.

    DiabyKungFu mate, he'd have to break his stubborn insistence on playing a certain way then do it 3x more against increasingly difficult competition. I don't see him doing it and the team won't do it themselves. Would love to be proven wrong

    Turns out the Nwaneri sub was enforced and he's out for a while now too.

    We are fucked.

      Turns out Saliba won the ball. I thought it was a pen but new footage shows he won the ball.

      DiabyKungFu if you really think Inter are second or first favorites the bookies are handing you a giant gift on that one with 16/1.

        Panda at least have the ref go take a look right? At least. It’s a big moment in the game and in the title race. Everyone understands this. And that’s the best that the pgmol can do with this incident. Just look on and say nothing. Smh.

        I mentally checked out I think when Odegaard got injured. It has made it easier to cope with this season. Very disappointed today though. If we are going to fade out then let us fade out, don’t just blatantly derail us.

        Tam tam?. Partey is playing because White, timber and Tomi aren’t available. Should we have bought another right back?

        Mikel gets a pass on this one. Just fucked up circumstances overall.

        Interesting. I was looking at http://clubelo.com/ and https://elofootball.com/ which have us, Liverpool and Inter as the top three teams in Europe. I might look into doing some sort of relative value betting on Inter relative to Bayern. Bayern > Inter specifically doesn't make a ton of sense to me. As it pertains to the main point I was making, bookmakers have us as having the second best odds to win the CL which goes to what I was saying.

        Just clocked that out next five fixtures are all at the emirates - time to go on a run of wins to get the confidence sky high.

        Throw in a new signing and everything could be all gravy
