[@idk-dz3fo]

Why dont you mention that the ref called kyle walker over to talk to him and let play restart before walker got set which led to the first goal. What about the fact that declan rice very obviously and purposefully got in ederson's way during their free kick "routine", obstructing his path and causing him to fall over and leading to the second goal. How about how he didnt punish anyone when the staff ran onto the field to treat a "cramp" when the ball was still in play and in city's possession, or how he didnt punish arteta for holding the ball and refusing to give it back when ever the ball got near him. Also you fail to realise that doku was simply passing the ball back to declan rice like the ref instructed him to and misplaced the pass slightly. That is completely different than fouling someone and booting the ball into the crowd when the ref blows the whistle, which is what trossard did. He was sent off simultaneously for the foul, delaying the restart and dissent, and yet arsenal fans are only focusing on the delaying of the restart. Not only should both arsenal goals be called into question, the refereeing was questionable for both sides, the trossard sending off was 100% justified and the doku situation is completely different.

[@MichaelHattem]

The problem isn't Trossard, it's the inconsistency of the officials. The rules are not being applied consistently. THAT is the issue. When Trossard kicked that ball, he was continuing play a second after the whistle. And even the VAR talk was about the challenge being the reason for the second yellow. Then they changed their mind to the kicking the ball because it would be easier for Oliver to cover his ass. This match laid bare the piss poor standards of officiating in the PL once again. (And that's not even to mention Oliver's side gig in the UAE and the fact that he has now made half a dozen shocking decisions in favor of City in the last 18 months alone).

[@ibizawavey8630]

Trossard picked up not one but TWO stupid yellows. It is very much on him as a player to read the referee and act accordingly.

[@Mandenladvær]

@@ibizawavey8630the problem with that is Oliver’s decision with Doku prior to Trossard indicated that the ref “did not want to cause drama by handing out small yellow cards in a game of that magnitude”. The action in itself is not the problem. It is the consistency

[@Maple_T29]

@@ibizawavey8630you’re missing the point. We aren’t complaining about Trossard being sent off. If that’s the rule then so be it, we just have to accept it.

No second yellow. Joao Pedro hoofs the ball 30 yards down the field when it’s clearly out of play, no yellow. Doku did it today, no yellow

[@alfredthegreat9543]

Thing is Trossard was already moving his leg to kick the ball when the whistle went. Incredibly difficult to stop that. The ref just wanted to book him clear and simple- less than 1 second between whistle and kick is ridiculous. Ref ruined the game

[@mikey4483]

It was a correct sending off?????? What about last year when Kovicic should have been sent off and Howard Webb came out and said, well the ref wants to try keep all players on the pitch. There was no need to send Trossard off for that, he had a millisecond to hear the refs whistle. He was playing on. Then why haven’t city players been booked for more blatant kicking the ball away.

[@ronstardj5611]

[@buhddacreates5140]

there’s been a mentality shift. we were devastated to get a draw away at man city with 10 men and they were over the moon to draw at home to us with 10 men.

[@LVX_]

IMO, this rivalry started for me two years ago on NYD 2022. City got a pen in the second half, and then Big Gabi got a red. Both were controversial decisions!

[@jkilla21389]

Wait til you hear the VAR chat and they’re not talking about delaying the restart at all. Guarantee they sent him off for the challenge and when they realized the outrage they decided to go with this messaging instead. I hear you on the players being more accountable, but it’s hard to swallow when we’ve played 90 minutes with 10 men in the first 5 games like we’re the only ones touching this.

[@krishunlovelace2868]

I totally agree with you on that, it's hard to believe how that's a second yellow yet this is the the SAME referee that refused to send off Kovacic in last year's match at the Emirates.

The point about trossard is spot on. What was he thinking. You know referees are eager to send off Arsenal players, why to give a chance.

[@billysmitherman4347]

Trossard quite literally was passing the ball to Martinelli into space. Not only that, it wasnt even one second from Oliver blowing the whistle. He didn't 'boot it away'. This is not on Trossard, period.

[@nikko2390]

As an Arsenal fan I agree with you on the point of blaming the ref and holding Trossard accountable, but I would say Arsenal fans are rightly aggrieved that the rules are being applied differently game to game. Kicking the ball away should be black & white surely? Yellow for everyone that does it? Doku, Silva today, Szoboszlai last weekend (reffed by Oliver, on a yellow) no second card. If you go with Trossard getting the second yellow for the foul, why was Haaland not booked for the same foul in the first 10 minutes? Different application of the law in the same game is whats infuriating Arsenal fans. Fair comments on the rest of it, certainly more level than your antics on The Club 🤣

[@yutehube4468]

If Man City fell in a barrel of manure they would come out smelling of roses. For Arsenal to hold on to the lead with 10 men for that long against arguably the best team in the world at their own gaff, was amazing and they used a clever tactic to do it. Shame about the equalizer. 🙁

[@Courtney-Jai]

The provlem isnt the second yellow card. it's the fact that city players did the exact same thing. No cards. The change in mentality arsenal fans are disappointed with getting a draw city fans are relieved.

[@fabienb]

Trossard kicked the ball, Rice kicked the ball… in both istances, a similar incident had happened previously and went uncautioned. Would Arsenal players have kicked the ball if there had been a yellow for the first incident? Players adapt their game to the ref behaviour, it’s just how it goes. If they see immediately a ref likes to draw cards they will commit less fouls. If they see refs don’t caution kicking the ball, why wouldn’t they? By the way, Trossard way kind of continuing his action, while Doku went to kick the ball away on purpose. But Arsenal always gets the red. That is the only piece of consistency

[@magz4kidz324]

Please check the replay and see if Trossard had enough time time to respond to the whistle. Rebecca Lowe said on air that the yellow card was initially for the barge. This was taken from audio of the video assistant. It conveniently then changed for kicking the ball away. Fairness does not shift reasons like that. These refs need to get their mistakes cleared up by stop trying to fool us. Be consistent and take bias out of football. 😮

[@gtr5973]

He didn't kick the ball away, it was a pass.

[@S0L12D3]

My problem isn’t with Trossard being sent off. My problem isn’t with Rice being sent off. My problem is that it consistently happens to our players in vital moments. Yet it DOESN’T EVEN HAPPEN IN THE SAME MATCH for anyone else…..

[@connordurham6827]

I blame Trossard too, he says he didn’t hear the whistle but who knows. The overarching problem is refs are not consistent with this ruling and it seems they are only eager to call it against Arsenal.

[@rickydawson7388]

The problem isn't inconsistency, it's the lack of common sense by referees. Trossard was still in playmode when he kicked the ball, plus the referee should have already blown the half-time whistle anyway. Trossard kicked the ball a millisecond after the whistle blew.

[@dheadley4]

Going in on Trossard makes sense without the context of the situation, he kicked the balled less whilst the ref was blowing the whistle. He is in motion to clear the ball when the ref if blowing, I think he deserves an apology for all who have gone in on him.

[@xkumanekox]

[@SuperbBirdman231]

Why nobody is talking about the Arsenal's second goal. Walker was called out of position by the ref for consultation. While going back in position the ref blow the whistle fast and Arsenal used that space to score their second goal. The Referees are a mess in England.

[@promethesured]

The ref's whistle was still in his mouth when trossard, who was at full pace and mid kick to martinelli, kicked the ball. How is he even supposed to be able to stop mid action?

Trossard was starting a counter attack with Martinelli on LW…not kicking the ball away to delay the restart. The foul (which was a 50/50), whistle and him trying to find Martinelli happened in a matter of couple of seconds. Give players a break with this stupid rule that somehow is only applicable to Arsenal.
