Scotty Posted January 25, 2015 Report Share Posted January 25, 2015 Only seems there's hunger from one team. Grateful that it's half time at 0-0. Now Big Sam gets a chance to earn his money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewNiceMrMe Posted January 25, 2015 Report Share Posted January 25, 2015 I struggle to understand Arsenal. Brilliant at times today, then seemingly disinterested. If they'd wanted to they could have scored 6, 7 or 8 today. They seem to take their foot off the pedal when they can least afford to and other clubs are going to punish them. Brighton were bloody terrible in the first half. You'd think they'd been forced to play when they didn't want to come out! However, you can't take away from the fact Arsenal got the job done and were never in any real danger. If Brighton had scored again, Arsenal would have just put the effort in and scored yet another. Incidentally, having now seen the Manchester City 'penalty' that wasn't, they should have had that. Blatant penalty and Boro were very lucky because it would have meant a very different game.

Scotty Posted January 25, 2015 Report Share Posted January 25, 2015 Again it was like watching a lower team having the belief. The results this weekend will have encouraged many teams that anything can happen. Football's a funny old game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billy2shots Posted January 25, 2015 Report Share Posted January 25, 2015 You can't give a penalty for that. Too close, ball moving too fast and his hand didn't move from its natural position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewNiceMrMe Posted January 25, 2015 Report Share Posted January 25, 2015 His arm moved out, albeit slightly. I'd have it was a penalty. Luckily for Boro, I wasn't the ref... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotty Posted January 25, 2015 Report Share Posted January 25, 2015 (edited) His arm moved with intent in that fraction of a second? Better reactions than me! Edited January 25, 2015 by Scotty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke Posted January 25, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2015 His arm looked out a bit to me. Normally defenders tuck their arms right in just to avoid any uncertainty. I'd have given it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewNiceMrMe Posted January 25, 2015 Report Share Posted January 25, 2015 (edited) On the Brighton penalty, I don't think it matters whether he gave it or not - Arsenal would have gone up the other end and scored. Brighton were awful in the first half and it was only Arsenal doing their usual 'lets not bother for 10 minutes' that allowed them back in. They then wake up and score again. I think they could have scored as many as they wanted to if they'd really tried. Some of their football today was very good. The slacking off will be their undoing against better teams, but they got the job done today and not many Premier League clubs could say that this weekend!

I think it's the Brighton penalty being discussed. At least that's what I was referring to after the comments above. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billy2shots Posted January 26, 2015 Report Share Posted January 26, 2015 (edited) Indeed, which is where the confusion comes in. Post 3584 onward. Not that it matters just a little confusing with most believing it wasn't a pen and you thinking it was. It's because we are talking about different games Haven't looked at the Boro Pen yet. No point, will just annoy me if it was a penalty but it shouldn't have come down to that. Would have meant a different game though as you say.
