there was contact, but the sentiment remains, not sure how Halsey saw it though

They just showed the pen incident again because of the long injury delay for Arteta. Their shins clearly came together. The way that Suarez was running he would have had to fight hard to stay on his feet, but why in hell should he do that? it's the kepper who has tripped him and a pen is the correct decision. I don't think it should have been a red card for the keeper, but it was much closer to a red card than it was to a non pen.

Reina shouldn't be getting beaten at the near post.

Ridiculous result at Anfield. No doubt Wenger will be putting it all down to their resolve and belief, but in truth they have robbed the win when they should have been well beaten.

As Jamie literally just said, if you have a striker as good as RVP you literally always have a chance

Let's not forget though, just 6 short days ago, Liverpool fans (and Cornish will obviously back this up), were telling us it's not how you win, as long as you do. Let's see how many are on here by the end of today complaining about Arsenal not deserving it.

Today's game was the story of our season, to be honest. Created a lot, missed a lot, gifted them enough. I only saw the second half as I've been in work, but I seen enough to know we were better than them, but I could say that for pretty much all of our home games this season, the result's tell a different story; we've not been good enough.

I didn't think we were going to get the top 4, but we're now definitely too far off IMO. We simply cannot have a record like ours at home and expect to finish above the top 5 sides (no disrespects Newcastle, but I still think you'll drop a few places between now and the season's end).

Surely questions have to be asked of a manager who wastes £60m on a strike force, and then ends up with the problem that you cite??....
