Same old Arsenal, always cheating :roll:

I've said it before and I'll say it again, we have certain refs who assume it's a foul every time a player goes down squealing, Taylor is one, Moss is another, and the big cheats play to it, absolutely embarrassing.

Option there to take a look...

Granit is Arsenal all over. Cheating two hat. His reaction in the first half earned kovacic the first yellow. His reaction there was pure cheating.

Disgusting players, horrible culture of cheating at that club.

Nonsense decision by the useless ref: could spoil what has been a very good, fast flowing, clean game.

If Arsenal win does that mean Wolves miss out on European football ?

edit: assuming they don't win the Europa League

Yes, if they win the Europa, then they're in the champions league.

I'm going 2-1 Arsenal, although the game isn't really filling me with excitement, so will more than likely just have it on in the background.
If only they came in when I bet.

The days when every physical contact will be penalised one way or another are not a long way off, aided and abetted by players falling over all the time and referees being instructed from on high that they must act.The game is getting worse and it will continue to do so.

First cup final in years I didn't bother watching, two london teams and one of them was arsenal, my hatred of them knows no bounds.

Most watched football match of the season, so there's clearly still appetite for the cup, i'd like to imagine we'd be going to Wembley in 9 months but i somehow doubt it with our recent cup form.https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/53628532
