Porto Arsenal

[Simster]

Hilarious goal for Porto.


Oh look - Wenger's MOANING.

 

[BensGrandad]

Very quick thinking and well executed.

Despite the absolutely correct refereeing.

Why shouldn't teams be allowed quick free kicks? It annoys the hell out of me when players commit offences then gain an advantage by blocking the quick free
kick. Bravo the ref.

 

[SNOOBS]

The ref even blocked Sol. Sol should have nutted him

 

[BensGrandad]

Goalkeeper should have gone back to his goal and put the ball on the ground for them to go and get thus giving his defenders time.

Very similar to the one by Zamora and Brooker (from memory) against Reading.

Lets be fair, if tht goal was against Brighton we would all be moaning!!

Even if the Arsenal defence were slower than Steven Hawkins getting back!

Rightly so the ref gifted Porto that goal and should have insisted they wait until he was ready and signalled for it to be taken. Most refs would have done and that is where we get the problems with inconsistency.

See Manx Seagull's post - did you think that goal should have disallowed ?

That wasa long time ago and is not the subject of discussion today. As it happens yes I do although I was glad it wasnt but I think that we were very lucky.

The thing for me is when the Porto player trys to get the ball from Fabianski and failed the ref went running over to demand he ball, the keeper gave it to him and the ref then quickly gave it to the porto player and even turned to get in the way of Campbell!

He didnt even blow the whistle!

Edit: saying that, the defending was shocking and it was very very basic errors which I wouldnt expect to see on a Sundy morning, let alone the Champions league!!!!!!

 

[Safe.]

What was the final score?

 

[Leekbrookgull]

Legal Goal. End off.

 

[ali jenkins]

What was the final score?

2-1 porto

 

[Durlston]

Sometimes i wonder if Arsenal are ever going to win another trophy again. What a bloody shambles.

 

[Tooting Gull]

Wenger is now talking shit after virtually every match. The guy doesn't even know the rules, if tonight is anything to go by. To be a worse loser than Fergie/Benitez/Mourinho rolled into one takes some doing, but he's the man.

It's funny how Wenger didn't moan when Theirry Henry scored a quickly taken free-kick against Chelsea a few years back.

Have the rules changed since then?!!!

thats exactly what i thought

 

[Monsieur Le Plonk]

Would have thought that as the ref had the ball in his hands that play would have had to be resumed via a whistle. Someone here must know what the law states. Wenger doesnt.

You can say that again, what were they up to? Campbell with his hands on his knees the wrong side of the ball, the goalie just wandering around the area and a couple of defenders strolling back without a care in the world! And what was the goalie doing picking up the ball? These guys get paid millions and they are pathetic! Then Wenger having his usual moan, wake up twat, it was your players that f**ked up, not the ref!
