Team for Arsenal?

Solid point, who would you play? Vrancic?

Probably but he hasn't played and I don't fancy a Leitner/Trybull combination. Tough one.

In that scenario, couldn't we just move Amadou back into defence and bring on a midfielder?

Yes, but playing him from the start puts him at additional risk. With our luck, he'd probably get injured!

On the balance of options. I'd probably do the same team as suggested (and picked by Farke) but there is a little risk that worries me.

We need to wise up. Don't give the Referee / VAR the ability to make the decision. 

I don't agree with the decision(s) made for the Penalty or re-take, but we have invited them.

By the rules of football, I guess the officials have got all decisions correct there. But when was the last time a penalty in the Premier League has been ruled out or retaken for encroachment, despite the fact it happens at every penalty? Where's the consistency?

Leicester last week?

Fair point! But it's still a rare event.

Was there encroachment by both teams?

 

If so, why award a retake?

Aarons was the one who played the ball, which takes precedence, according to the rules.

Looked like Aarons foot was behind the line, when the pen was taken. His body was over but not his foot. VAR is ruining this game. It shouldn't be that specific as it is not an "obvious" error.

Hea playing well  , that wasnt even a half chance. 

Any shot unopposed around the area is half a chance

Amadou’s Shooting is awful

To be fair, I don't think Pukki's marking or Krul's dribbling are up to much 😉

On another note, that was very much an orange for McLean. Maybe another VAR could've seen that differently, but luckily Oliver didn't.

True, but he was being closed down  fast by  3 players  . So not  unopposed
