Don’t think I’ve ever seen a team time waste as much, ridiculous.

They made sure that they did it when someone was talking to the referee so he doesn't realise just how long it's taken.

 

Pure Dycheball, can't stand him.

Only 4 mins added on was a joke. Pickford wasted that much time in about 20 mins 

[Spudulike]

Arsenal were the worst team that I've ever seen for time wasting when we last played them at our place, facilitated by officials. 

 

About time the spotlight was focused...

Norwich at home 2016. Booted the ball at Kasper off the kickoff and just went into full on park the bus, time-wasting mode.

 

It was crazy to see and very nearly got them an unlikely point (thanks, Ulloa)

Bit rich Pep saying his team are honest they're  as bad as Arsenal with their tactical/cynical fouls just doing enough to disrupt play without getting a yellow and getting yellow instead of a red for stopping counter attacks.

Yeah but I'm not talking time wasting.

Possibly a longer wait for semi-auto offsides

Elsewhere, the introduction of semi-automated offside technology was discussed. The league had been aiming to implement the technology after one of the autumn international breaks — the second of which begins in 10 days — but this now may not come until the winter.

How did skipp 

[HybridFox]

It's clear we're getting nothing this season from them and the EFL will give us nothing next season if we're down there. 

 

We're being far too nice and naive with our play in trying to win fouls and then being further penalised by asking for them. Wish some of the players would take the bull by the horns and venture out to create things in open play. It's our only hope

Probably on the basis that califiori did 

he definitely played advantage to spare himself the decision 

[Bert]

 Vardy fouled clearly by Saliba before their goal but as standard the ref makes and error so has to book Vardy and Cooper for their protests. Calafiori should’ve been walked as well, at a crucial stage of the game as well. 

[moore_94]

Same ref who screwed us over away against Ipswich last season

 

No conspirary with this ref he is just shite

100% foul, we should defend the cross far better also!

Of course. All 4 goals of theirs are preventable. Last 2 both very lucky too.

Way out of his depth 

some of the cards early in the second half were ludicrous (for both sides) 

[howie]

Apparently Arsenal fans aren’t happy Ndidi avoided a second yellow for kicking the ball away.

Did he not kick the ball towards where the free kick was

Ndidi's yellow card was a joke he clearly won the ball with a great tackle.

[Bert]

Watching it back on MOTD it’s even more criminal Calafiori hasn’t been sent off. Embarrassing. 

[Spudulike]

No consistency with cautions for waving an imaginary card. Seen it go unpunished several times. Perhaps that's what saved the Arsenal full-back as the ref was embarrassed about being advised what the correct decision should've been.

Arsenal are a good side and no doubt deserved the win but given helping hand by officials with crucial errors
