Graham Poll said it was a dive, that’s good enough for me!
The commentator on match of the day said it was a dive and trust me had that happened against lpool then Murphy would have declared it also.

I always record match of the day and watch it Sunday morning so I can skip thought the tedious so called experts opinions which are 90% of the time Just sheet bias.

Murphy seems to have a hatred towards Arsenal..Remember him before and during the 2015 Cup Final....think he was the only pundit who said Village would win..

On a lighter note we have years of this shit ahead of us until Old Stupid Bollocks Arsene Wenger decides he no longer wishes to own Arsenal FC. Probably (if we are lucky) around May 2025... :roll:

yip-fucking-ee. :suicide:

Is it correct that Danny Murphy is on that panel that adjudicates on potential diving situations..? Is it also true that Danny Murphy declared it not a dive on MOTD on Saturday ? Didn't see MOTD..If both are true then there surely is a conflict of interest and it has to be wrong that a member of said panel can express an opinion before the panel meets..
Murphy is an idiot. Something about Beeb with their one idiot in one idiot out policy. They get rid of Alan Hansen and recruit the next best clown.

If that was a penalty than iwobi should've got one in the first half, which wasn't shown on motd but described on the r5l commentary by former curbcrawler pleat as a challenge that he has "seen been given before" as a foul.
Had Ozil scored he would've be given offside so the fact he missed makes us feel less aggrieved. Why are we surprised? Watford have beaten us 3 seasons on the bounce. Our record against them is shocking.

I accept Ozil was offside and so it lessens the disappointment of his miss, but I find it worrying that he cannot seem to beat keepers at all when one on one with them. That's about the 5th or 6th time (at least) he's fluffed a one on one since the second half of last season. I know it's not really his role to be in there and clinically finishing on a regular basis, but still he's a top player and should be able to score from most of those chances. Does Wenger have any of them practice finishing I wonder? Confidence in front of goal is like memory muscle, you practice and hone the ability so it becomes second nature. Probably a bit too crude for Arsene, he would like to squeeze at least another 15 passes out of the move and then maybe a tap in. :roll:

I'm told that post match, Keown was laying in Ozil as usual and highlighting his lack of ruthlessness. Far easier to target a player he didnt play with if it helps deflect the blame from the manager. Criticising Ozil wont harm Keown's chances of having a job at the club in future.

Strange how Keown's fondness for being ruthless doesnt extend to disposing of a manager who hasnt challenged for a title in 13 years :roll:

Keown's a *word censored*
Wenger's a *word censored*
Ozil's a disinterested bollocks who, if he had any self respect, could take it upon himself to improve those parts of his game that should be better. Irrespective of the *word censored* in charge.

They's all c :censored: ts :barscarf:

Get your banner out Herbert. Everton need a big win and there is no better team to welcome to your ground than Modern Arsenal when you need a win. :|

Funny....Watford looked really strong in the last 30 minutes last week......but not the case this weekend.

Wonder why that could be?
