Partey will be off next foul

That turned out to be untrue. He just got away with one that was more worthy of a yellow.

He does need to take care though.

Ha, if he is that is an absolute farce. He's made 3 fouls and been booked on the second one. I don't think any player has ever been sent off for a second yellow for totting up after the first foul when it is only 2 on the totting up!
Remember Bissouma was allowed 6 fouls without a yellow against us and Ayew was allowed 7 fouls without a yellow against us. Both records in the prem

You’ll be shocked at how egotistical some of these American billionaires are and that news will reach him.

Better to have believed in something and said it than not

A bit like shouting at the tv. Might make you feel good but has zero impact.

If it makes you feel good it does have an impact surely?

In which case I reckon that you are spot on.

Daniel Ek, the founder of Spotify has posted on twitter that he's always been an Arsenal fan and if Kronke wants to sell he'll "throw his hat in the ring"

Ek has an estimated wealth of £4.3billion. about half of Kronke's wealth and to my knowledge no inllaws who are even richer than him like Kronke!

I went to the protest. It was good actually, more like an Arsenal away game as a good atmosphere.

Moshiri has half of that wealth and he owns half of Everton.

He can have a whip round with his mates.

For some reason my mind drifted off to this fixture at the back end of the 1998 season. Happy memories.

Sadly it’s all entirely academic. They will never sell.

Never.

Think it's just a PR stunt on his part, but on a side note I think too much is being made about the wealth of Kroenke's wife and in-laws. Doubt their money is available to Kroenke for his own investments in any way.

well he is caught so the foul is confirmed - checking offside with a bit of a guess - and they're putting the lines on Pépé's elbow! awful!

Offside apparently. Not that one of the 43 lines they drew showed it clearly

That is scandalous. They clearly drew the line from Pépé's elbow not from his sleeve!

For gods sake how many times are we getting screwed by var

This is just the sort of match that came to mind when reading comments from Perez.

Just awful. Lacks any credibility at all. Not remotely what I thought that VAR was brought in to do.

Daniel Ek only has a fortune of $4.7b. He’s basically a pauper. I doubt Stan would think of selling for £2.0b, so it would take even more than that. I don’t see how Ek could afford to buy Arsenal without taking on huge loans, as I believe Glazer did when he bought Manchester United. Is that really what we want?

Who gives a *%^@. Are you concerned it could get worse

Tongue in cheek, I’d rather have Jack the Ripper as owner than Kroenke. I just don’t see how Ek could afford to buy the club. I might as well say I’ll throw my hat in the ring, or you can say you will.

The game is ruined.

Analytical nonsense throughout every game. This is no longer a spectator sport just a series of incidents on a grass pitch.

the lines are not even drawn accurately on Pépé, let alone being drawn on a part of his body that can play the ball.

I swear we have not been given any marginal var decision at all this season

Any gratification is delayed that’s for sure. I’m learning not to get excited when we score of get a penalty.

You can score from your shoulder above the t-shirt line in theory. It’s just annoying that it’s mm’s. I’m not sure it’s “wrong” wrong.
