Hull just look so incompetent with the ball against Arsenal so far

Sanchez has them up 1-0

What has happened to reffing in this league? It'g gone south so fast, unreal..

How does he not call it!?

I mean he has to see it, he just has to

I think the argument is that even though it hit his hand, it's not handling because his arm is in a natural position and he had no chance of getting it out of the way, even if Arsenal did score as a result.

I don't think a goal scored that way should stand, but I understand that the laws may not reflect that.

Yeah the handball rules are weird. Imo air between body and arm = handall in all situations. Just make it easy

Thing is, all season if a defender handball the ball like that inside the penalty area they usually don't call it, because it's affects the game too much for an unintentional handball. But if the same handball happens outside the panalty area they call it every single time. With that said shouldn't the mindset be the same the other way around? Score with your arm/hand = no goal

I agree completely.

In any case, this feels like Hull are going to grab one and we'll see a bunch of "Wenger Out" signs before the game is done. Markovic looks dangerous.

 

[Ar-too]

Guess not.

Still, Arsenal looked better than last week, but still vulnerable. Ozil and Sanchez were more in sync than I've seen them in a while.

 

[Jussi]

Mata! Or should that be Special Juan?

 

[Theon]

United are playing some great flowing football atm, and for once there's a goal to show for it.

 

[Savant]

Gabbiadini doing well for Southampton.

 

[Ar-too]

Really nice team goal there.

 

[Jussi]

Apparently Clattenburg apologized to the players at halftime for allowing the Sanchez goal.

 

[Jussi]

Martial! Finally.

 

[Theon]

Martial with a goal and assist. Delivered in every game he's started.

 

[Ar-too]

Zlatan: The Hunger is Real

 

[Epictetus]

Mignolet
Clyne - Matip - Lucas - Milner
Wijnaldum - Henderson - Lallana
Mane - Firmino - Coutinho

COYS!!!

A win today, and I think they will end up 2nd. Their schedule is the easiest coming home.

I have the same feeling. And hey, Lucas is starting!

 

[Epictetus]

Leggo.

 

[spintheblackcircle]

well, I was putting off clearing the bathroom anyway......

 

[Soundgarden]

Ugh, awful defending right there.

 

[Paulie Gualtieri]

End me...

 

[Alex Jones]

Lots of poor defending from Spurs. I'm sure the shoe will be on the other foot soon enough.

 

[hatterson]

Holy smokes Spurs defense is terrible today.

 

[Blender]

This defending from Spurs is pathetic. They are usually much more solid than this...
