[Albion] Arsenal vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

[BrickTamland]

awful how we played after the equaliser

Not a brain cell between any of the attacking players on display

 

[The Fits]

Will definitely take that!

 

[Cheeky Monkey]

This is a massive result against a title contender.

Not a bad result for us either.

Keown crying, plastic Arsenal fans crying, Havertz crying. They're well and truly rattled

 

[Triggaaar]

Keown with his own agenda

What did he say?

Keown with his own agenda

He'll be crying that his beloved Arsenal were robbed

 

[Simster]

And once again, @dwayne was spot on when he said we'd get hammered because of Hinshelwood v Saka. I trust nobody at all will ever doubt him again.

Good point, 3 would have been better, off to bed.

 

[Triggaaar]

Good point, 3 would have been better, off to bed.

Congrats on staying up

We definitely could have won that. But I prefer to look at it this way -- whichever part of the table we're competing in this season, it's unlikely that any of the teams around us will be getting a point from their away game at Arsenal. On that basis it's definitely a point gained.

 

[Simster]

What did he say?

Moaned that Veltman was playing the referee while ignoring that kicking the ball away is a yellow card offense.

 

[LamieRobertson]

What did he say?

Glossed over Brighton ..concentrated on Havertz and a brilliant first half (eh?) and the ref

 

[deletebeepbeepbeep]

Great point, didn't expect that at all.

 

[Bodian]

You don’t kick the ball away when already on a yellow. His own fault.

I reckon he would have got away with that normally. I think the fact that he went down poleaxed, and all the Arsenal players tried to get Veltman sent off must have had an impact on the ref.

 

[hart's shirt]

Definitely 1 point gained, not 2 points dropped.

Both teams had chances to win it even after the red card.

22 chances for Albion v 11 for Arsenal, but only 4 of them on target.

Big saves by Bart, so it's all good for me here.

What did he say?

"The ref has played a big part in that result". Tosser

 

[GoingUp]

Keown is so butthurt.

Referee has played a ‘big part’ in this match apparently.

Yes he reffed the game to the law, Martin

 

[Auckland seagull]

Bedtime in NZ. Happy with that. Nighty-night from Downunder.

Once Rice went off, we were by far the better side. They could have beaten us on the break, but we were more likely to get a winner.

Completely disagree. After equaliser we made the wrong choice every single attack whilst being very open at the back.

Arsenal much more likely to have scored
