As an Arsenal fan, watching Spurs vs Chelsea is like watching a punch up between your worst enemy and your racist uncle. Whatever happens, it’s quite funny. I’m hoping for a few reds.

 

and for what Silva did with his elbow

 

Romero made Rudiger look like a B-list actor

 

Sure, but it was still an intentional swing of the elbow to his face

 

the sternum is nowhere near the face tho

 

Sternum? It definitely touched his face.

 

Elbow below the face but upper arm hitting the face. That’s still a deliberate elbow swing with contact to the face.

I’m not asking for a red but it was a dirty play.

 

I say send em all off

 

Amazing pass to Sterling there

 

FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT

 

If Ziyech gets a (deserved) red/second yellow but Richarlison and Lenglet don’t get a yellow as well, what is even if the point?

 

Should habe been yellows for Royal, Havertz, and Richarlison, and a red for Ziyech.

 

Love that the VAR replay doesn’t show the three shoves before that, lmao.

 

NO RED?!?!

 

Amazing

 

Wtf??

 

Isn’t that 2 yellows? One for the tackle and one for the slap?

 

I wonder if they think it was just a poorly aimed push maybe? Very strange lol

 

To be fair, maybe the tackle wasn’t a yellow because neither was Richarlison’s earlier on Reece James or Kane’s on Kepa. The yellow could’ve been just for the shove.

 

How do they give the card, then look at a replay of the offense, and decide it’s clear and obvious that it wasn’t a red?

 

Second half definitely won’t get out of control now….no way. Gonna be a completely clean game. Yep.

 

Tbf it's been pretty poor so far. Needed something to kick it up a gear.

 

Can’t wait to hear the clarification of what was the ref clearly giving Ziyech a second yellow and allowing him to stay on the pitch

 

I’m also confused in the whole process. Who told Atwell to give the red initially? Because VAR wouldn’t make a ruling, and then send the ref to the screen.

 

scrambling to sign up for a sports betting site so I can put money on a Ziyech winner
