Arsenal v Chelsea

[Stevencc]

Oscar is playing the false 9 position then. I honestly thought Jose would put Cesc there hoping he'd score, such is his proclivity for trolling.

 

[Cheese & Biscuits]

Bloody hell that was close

 

[Master D]

How on earth can that not be the clearest penalty you can ever see?

 

[Stevencc]

Ospina nearly killed Oscar then...

 

[thespus]

This has been a lot more open than I thought it would be.

Eh, a rivalry and a game between the two best sides in the league without anything for which to play. I think it'll be decent.

 

[silkyman]

Looked a pretty clear pen to me!

 

[JJH]

Ospina cleans Oscar.

Close to an opener that.

 

[Relentless]

How was it not given as a penalty

 

[Cheese & Biscuits]

I expected Chelsea to sap any life out if the game to frustrate Arsenal. It hasn't really been like that.

 

[G-Dragon]

Arsenal need to cheat against a team without a striker at home...they have improved a lot...said no one ever.

 

[Cheese & Biscuits]

That's awful from Fabregas

 

[silkyman]

'There was contact'..

Aye, but he was already in full Tom Daly mode before that.

 

[JJH]

Fabregas booked for diving - controversial.

 

[Stevencc]

It's pretty harsh to book him for that. He's exaggerating the contact for sure and I wouldn't give the penalty but you do see them given, as they say.

 

[thespus]

None of the ball and enough of the player. Penalty for me.

Cesc disagrees going by his interaction with the official. Cazorla's leg never catches him if he isn't diving before the contact.

 

[silkyman]

Blatant dive.

 

[G-Dragon]

Dive, but if referee does not give a pen for blatant ones..what is one supposed to do?

 

[Jarv]

How was it not given as a penalty

because Oliver is by far the worst referee in the Premier League

 

[silkyman]

Seen those given too!

 

[Cheese & Biscuits]

one penalty each now?

 

[Master D]

Oliver is shocking. How is he rated so highly?

 

[JJH]

Handball?

Surely?

 

[silkyman]

Wel, Chelsea are claiming two..

 

[JJH]

Not intentional, but the arm is in an un-natural position.

Penalty.

 

[Jarv]

coquelin gets booked for brushing his hand on the chelsea players shoulder

 

[G-Dragon]

This one is not a pen. His hand was in a "natural" position.

 

[Humongous Fungus]

Alan Smith doesn't think so but I think that was a handball.

 

[Cheese & Biscuits]

coquelin gets booked for brushing his hand on the chelsea players shoulder

Considering the other challenges that have gone unpunished that looked harsh but Chelsea were in if he didn't do it.

 

[Cheese & Biscuits]

This one is not a pen. His hand was in a "natural" position.

His hand was in a natural position...

...at the end of his arm which was in the air. Should have been given.

 

[AnthonyOAFC]

Ramires far too casual.
