I've never seen anything so ridiculous in my life. How anyone in their right mind can call that handball is beyond me. The ball hits the Fulham player side on when his arm is down the side of his body so if it hadn't hit his arm then it would have hit his body.

I have a feeling that there get out is the Law. Iirc wherever or however it is handball in the area and it results in a goal it is irrelevant whether it was meant or not. I think it's another asinine rule created by the FA that never should have been said.

That Spurs benefitted from the decision makes it even worse.


I get this feeling that the FA is pro Spurs and anti us

The cost of the players for that season suggests we paid a lot more money than previously claimed for some players. 182.2 paid in total. Tierney -25, Saliba - 27, Pépé 72 means 60 mil for Luiz, Mari and Martenelli. Did we get Soares as well. Plus our wages are still at CL level which we seem to continue to do. There is some speculation on various podcasts this year will be 140 loss. This means 3 losses in a row and this year would be 4 years. So I assume Kroenke has to pick up the tab otherwise we will become insolvent and trading when insolvent would be an offence I would suspect.

Not sure where people think we will have a transfer kitty this year. I suspect a lot of other clubs will be in the same position so any players we sell will have low values.

The rule was changed to penalise any touch by the hand or arm that directly leads to a goal on the back of the spurs goal by Llorente than knocked City out of the champions league 2 years ago. Now it seems the rule is being changed back from the start of next year to a more sensible approach but not one that will stop the arguments

Bizarre taste and tragic if true!

But only the second most bizarrely tragic exhibit on the page. No, I'm not talking about people's tastes in music ... I'm talking about someone becoming morbidly obsessed with Alistair Campbell.

This is truly mindboggling, considering there are billions other people, and an unlimited number of other animate and inanimate objects, with which one could become obsessed.

Full strength, rested, with a bit of momentum and against weak opposition who played 3 days ago. This surely can't be a banana-skin? I'll be bitterly disappointed if Arsenal bungle this one.

The odd screw up like the games against Wolves :1cry: and Villa is to be expected from time to time. However, this needs to become a lot more rare for us than it is at present.

Doesn't "directly leads" means goes into the goal from the hand ball which makes sense but still would not be relevant imo in this case as if it hadn't hit his arm it would have hit his body anyway. Wherever it went to from there the game should continue as it wasn't handball imo?

A little disappointed to see Pépé on the bench, but that's a strong lineup.

Slightly harsh on Pépé I feel as he played so well in the last game. Arteta opting for ball retention to wear down Burnley through Willian rather than incision.

Mass vigil with flowers and candles because he didn’t start Martinelli again

Willian probably needed the vote of confidence more than Pépé did?

I'm looking forward to see the Partey, Ødegaard, Xhaka combination.

Yeah, that's reasonable. Arteta is probably prioritizing playing Willian into form since Pépé and Saka are already there so to speak. Would like to see Pépé get a proper run of games though.

Yeah. Its difficult when they are all on form and injury-free. I do hope Burnley don't do something about the latter.

Minor but I'd like to see Tierney add cutting in on his right to his game. He's great at going to his preferred left and crossing but that can be sussed out easily with one video.

On a side note, the claret and blue style shirts (West Ham, Burnley) I've seen in a few clubs, more than I thought with that color scheme. Intersting. Just an observation.

Great goal. Good to see Willian running at the defense. He's playing better. There I said it. Sue me. :icon_mrgreen:

That was a fast carry through from midfield, credit to Partey & Willian.

Poor defending by Burnley. The defence just ran backwards when Willian was running at them, Aubameyang sent them all in the wrong direction and the keeper should have kept the shot out.

I like Partey and think he will become a fine signing. But I think it’s necessary to be realistic about his performances so far, rather than pretending he’s hit the ground running. Well if that’s hitting the ground running, I’ve seen seen 90 year olds on crutches outpace him.

Great drive from midfield from partey for the goal :58big-emoticons:

Horrible pass out from defence by Partey, quickly followed by sublime defence splitting pass by Partey.
