But what's the alternative. Is it he's only offside if a leg in front? 20%? . We'd be here till Christmas waiting for them to figure that out.
At least offsides are mostly black and white.

The one that really needs work are handballs and penalty 'contact'

Racism is far far less of a problem in English speaking countries than people think. Believe him I have in Easten Europe you'll see the difference.

Calls like that shite. He didn't touch him, no foul.

VAR will give a pen. They just don't like us.

His shoulder was offside and that’s a dive anyway.

VAR has over engineered football. Encourages cheating and open to abuse

If our goal was chalked off for such small margin, why is that not offside?

One shot from side looked like he trod on him the other shot looked like he didn't.

Every time the comm says they've never beaten us in an away game the more I cringe and curse him for saying it.

All the VAR calls aside, we haven't really played like this is an important game for us.

Precisely. There has to be a boundary somewhere. Wherever you draw it there are going to be the same problems.

There is no ways we should be trailing to that lot. What a load of rubbish.

Since the opening 10 minutes it’s had a pre-season friendly feel to it.

That doesn’t look good for Lacazette (or us).

It's not a secret that our priority is winning the Europa League so might that have filtered into the mindset of the players?

Most of it will be taken by their keeper changing his boot.

Anyone counting time? We need a Twitter statto to count this regularly and let everyone know, because it feels like it’s total bollocks every game.

I thought we had a decent first half. Less 2nd,

Thin line between success and failure in the league. Going in halftime 1nil up makes things much easier.

Their goal came from an attack down our left, not sure it would have happened with Tierney there. I really don’t think we can afford to miss 1 of our core players in a game right now.

Looks to be a shocking result

I sincerely hope that we aren’t going to have to try and win the Europa League with Nketiah as our main striker.

Some good movement and attacking intent in 1st half. Still very afraid to shoot. 2nd half has been rubbish. We thought we'd won and now chasing a draw against Fulham who have been terrible. This is not players, this is management and Arteta should take the blame for this mess.

7 minutes seems about right. I’ve always thought these officials do a good job timekeeping

Does anyone get the impression we could be taking corners till next year and not score?

We should be approaching every remaining game like a cup final, but have clearly gone into this one thinking it'll sort itself out because it's only Fulham at home. Unacceptable
