We started positively again, that was the last thing we needed.

*%^@

We let them get behind us

Never a penalty.

Think Xhaka did enough there to let the ref give a penalty, but it's frustrating because that's such an obvious dive too

I'm a bit biased but not really enough of a pull, Silva made a meal of it.

Oh Xhaka ..... you brainless pr**ck ... all our good work undo .

It was the leg across trhat did it

1 All - Oh good.

Really really soft penalty.

Exactly so.

Martinelli my god!

How the f**** did Martinelli miss that.

And a sending off too. Sigh.

Now a test of our mental fortitude

Gabriel sent off. *%^@ everything

One word: Xhaka.

These games are too big for his antics. Hoping this gets the squad angry to go for it.

Well that’s been a lousy few minutes.

Aaarrrggghh Martinelli must score

And Gabriel is off

Oh perfect - Gabriel off

We sabotaged ourselves again.
This is disappointing.

Completely lost our nerve.

Unbelievable. Just unbelievable.

That was very clumsy from Gabriel when on a yellow. Two mistakes that has undone all our hard work in this game. Need to fight with everything we have for the point now.

The Martinelli miss was doubly costly given what happened moments later.

So I WAS rigfht huh

VAR gave the penalty, not Atwell.

That's Xhaka for you. Should have been replaced ages ago. For all Martinell's good work, that was an atrocious miss. A draw would be remarkable from here.

This is going to be a long half an hour.

Emile Smith Rowe opn but who's off

Xhaka?

Best to take Xhaka out. He's liable to get another yellow.

Wow - Holding gets a yellow for that ???

Silly boy I already said it was a pen. Or are you just being sarcastic?

Anyway everything since has been against us.

We need to have an actual midfield for the remaining 20 mins though

Anouncer said Arsenal now the first side to get to 100 red cards in the PL. There's a photo of the referee leaving the City locker room at halftime.

Apparently so. Frigging annoying by the ref.

It's got to be one of the forward players.
And it's Lacazette. Correct decision I think.

No it wasn’t. Yet another clumsy tackle by Xhaka to trip him up. The script could be etched in stone it’s so predictable. Do really well for a half, give away a stupid penalty and someone get sent off. How many times, year after year after year. Why Xhaka wasn’t subbed of is just mind boggling.

Feewls like we're losing this game even though it's 1-1

Come on boys sort yourselves out.

What's really mind boggling is that he is still at the club. And to think some want him reinstated as captain!!
