It was obvious the silva wanted to dive, why xhaka was pulling him back is what i can't fathom, another mystery is how did var officials + referee missed silva intention

Most people are seeing this from emotional point of view. I know it's not easy because Pep is turning the league to a farmer's league.

There are many tactics managers use to win games, and asking their players to dive, or exaggerate fouls to win set pieces are part of his tactics, though not very obvious. I have noticed that since Barcelona days, Pep has been using this tactics, his wingers, and midfielders dives and exaggerate fouls.

Xhaka fouled Silva but it was minimal and could be over looked, but Silva dived, and as he was going down Xhaka tried to pull him up(by pulling his shirt which looks like an obstruction). As an acclaimed experience player, you don't do that, because the rule is the rule. He should have allowed the simulation to complete and VAR review it.

A defender can't say because a winger was in an offside position when he received a pass, you as the defender will now use your hand to catch the ball as it was crossed, because you believe the winger was in an offside position.

You saw all these but you didn't see Salah handball. You are a biased. If any team should complain this season, it shouldnt be Liverpool. Many bad calls have been made in favor of Liverpool and they just had a taste of one you never keep quiet since.

Update yourself with the rules of the game bro.

If there is an accidental handball in the build up to a goal but the hand ball does not result directly in goal, then the goal stands.

By the letters of the law, the goal you're talking about is legitimate.

It is just so annoying how he does this season in season out.

Reference:


You just wonder how long it will take Arteta and his coaching team to see the damage that guy is causing that team.
Season after season he continues to cost valuable points with totally mindless, reckless plays.
He should take a leaf from Thomas Partey, another hard man in that middle but has managed to culture his game to the demands of the Premiership and the deep scrutiny of referees.
He was supposed to be sold to Roma last summer.
I think he should be given out for free.
Re: Arsenal Vs Manchester City (1 - 2) On 1st January 2021 by akezn: 7:39pm On Jan 01, 2022
It is costing the team a lot. This is one tough game that Arsenal were on the verge of winning. They outplayed City until the moment of madness.

Stop castigating the rẹ free because you are disappointed that City did not fall. Ref did not make decision. In fact, he has made it play on but the dragging of the shirt was too obvious to turn down for foul after a soft contact.

Why should Xaka hold the shirt again when the guy was struggling to move? The call by VAR is the reason not referee direct decision. Although, Arsenal ought to have been given a penalty earlier.


Arsenal deserve something bigger today but need to be discipline at the back too.

When Arsenal were dominating Man City, city absorb pressure well not by unreasonable fouls but it was clear that Man City were not allowed to play their game
we go catch una next match

Honestly speaking.
I am not an ARSENAL FAN and will never be, but what the REFEREE is doing to Arsenal today is utter nonsense. Despite Arsenal hosting the game, he's busy treating Arsenal as a second division club playing away.
The REFEREE should be stoned to death.
He's an Idiot.
He knew Arsenal was out playing City, yet he went all out to dish out unnecessary Yellow Cards.
He should also give Arsenal Fans watching the Game. He's a FooL.

Guyy, thats because in all honesty, food wey sweet, na money kill am. That's the situation, to win trophies consistently in modern day football, you need to spend. Do you expect a coach of Pep's calibre to be taking Brighton, Burnley or Norwich's job? He is in a class of his own. Or if you were him, you wouldn't take those kind of jobs over a club that'll spend for you?
Babaj145:


First off, i don't think i ever said in any of my post that pep is a bad coach..did i??...he's good no doubt, but let's also put into context that his brilliance is heavily backed up by an equally bigger budget season in season season out...he has d luxury to buy at least 2 quality players for every position in the field, and that's his advantage over other teams...pep is not working on bunleys budget...he has d capacity( money) to fuel his brilliance, therefore he will always be successful... that's d point...how i wish y'all kids could grow some sense dis new year...

Man Utd have been spending for the past 5 years how many trophy have they won? See this game is not only about spending o managerial tactics self dey part of it o, if the manager is short of tactics or idea even if he has all the world best players at his disposal the team will fail abysmally

Man city doesnt have any strong defence. Their game today against arsenal clearly shows that.

If their opponent can stand their ground and stop fidgeting when players like mahrez is with the ball, i think their lapses will be revealed; and this their winning streak will be long broken.

Even pep, after their match today, said that this has been their most challenging and difficult match they have ever played this season. So i think you just have to give it up for arsenal. (When chelsea, liverpool and their ilks are there ooo)

Truely, small nyash dey shake.
