Not often I enjoy a (none City ) PL game, but that was a belter.

Was it great defending? No, not really
Was it great attacking? No, not really
Were they great goals? No, not really
Was it amazing skill? No, not really

Was it entertaining? Hell yeah, it was a great advert for PL football and showed why it's the most watched league in the world

The home team having 75% possession and 33 attempts on goal and losing 1-3, only in England.

Absolutely appaling first 10 mins defending from the Arse but that's the first time I've seen them not collapse like the shit houses they usually are

DDG - outstanding performance and probably would have been 4-3 were it not for his heroics

ROLL ON NEXT WEEKEND!!

I will have to join the chorus of those who think that wasn't a red card. I can't even see it as a foul and agree with SR that the late lunging attempt at a header which laid out Matic was more so.

I felt Bellerin spread himself in the sideways splits to stop Pogba going either way rather than challenge for the ball. P got the ball, dinked it over the outstretched left leg and came down on it with the follow through.

I can't agree that you can always control that type of contact and it wasn't so bad anyway as it was portrayed. Of course I didn't say too much at the time largely because discretion gets the better part of valour if one is s sitting in "foreign" hospitality which very quickly became hostility. Mind, I've had worse at Newcastle.

Pogba meant that. Usually I'd say that was a yellow at worst for a 'clumsy' challenge but he'd already taken a wild swing at some Arsenal player just a couple of minutes before, so I'd say he was charged up enough to leave his boot in on purpose.

Great game, but only cos we won. If De Gea hadn't been as sharp as he was I imagine the mood would be very different - we've looked shaky sitting back in our last two matches and I suspect our next opponents will punish us more ruthlessly for doing the same. Hopefully that means we'll just keep the ball in their half all game.

I don't entirely think Pogba meant to catch Bellerin like he did, he seemed to be stretching to prod the ball. Still, can't really argue with the red card.

I was fucking livid with Darmain however, at 2-1 he came on and within minutes he quite easily (and probably rightly) could have cost us a penalty. Knob.

Just finished celebrating that win. Immense. We can kick on from that, hopefully. The players still lack that last few percent of confidence in themselves.

Pogba's red card was bollocks. A yellow maybe for not trying to get out of the way but when a player does the splits leaving a trailing leg in front of somoene who is stretching for the ball, what the fuck does the ref expect? There was no way Pogba set out to stamp on the cunt, as is obvious in the replays.

Did he leave his foot in? Maybe but the shithouse Gooner cocksucker caused the incident with a stupid non-tackle in the first place, just moments after rugby tackling Young. I only wish Pogba had kicked the little shit's balls straight out of his scrotum if he was going to get a red anyway. Typical Arsenal coward. So glad we beat them. I hope a few journos at the Daily Mirror hanged themselves afterwards.
