    Trossard loves a well timed, big moment goal.

    You should've known. I'm guessing arsenal were cautious and a bit negative like they are in all the big games these days

    Gerratovit, he ran straight into Neuer, well surprised by the game tbh. We were fantastic tonight, didn't think we were up for it, but the lads surprised me.

    Saka's a f(cking idiot.

    Just put the ball in the net rather than trying an Ashley Young special.

    Outstanding refereeing not falling for Saka's bullshit. Wish we had these types in the Prem.

    That's being given on Saka in a league game.

    That doesn't make it right. He was looking for it and dived.

    Not a clear and obvious error was it .

    Which is what VAR should be used for really.

    This is where PL refs and PL VAR are getting it wrong for me. They (and too many pundits) argue that there was contact and therefore it is a foul. For me it's about who initiated the contact, and here it was Saka rather than Neuer. We see too many in the PL where an attacker will deliberately leave their foot in an unnatural position or drag it in a manner that makes it impossible for a defender to avoid contact even where contact would have been avoided given a natural continuation of motion. Hell, Kane benefited from that frequently enough when he was at Spurs.

    We should also have had a penalty when the ref gave the ball free and a defender picked the ball up, the ref ignored it.
