Yeah there shouldn't be any difference if it's in the box or not on a play like that. OK Laca got the shot off but he was going to get taken out either way.Anywhere else.on the pitch it's a foul and a yellow

Look how high his left foot ffs that dumb challenge someone like old friend mustafi would makeAnywhere else.on the pitch it's a foul and a yellow
I don't get why media love having these average Sp**s players as pundits.Jermaine Jenas is quite a tool to be honest. Not much of a player and really an awful pundit...

Watched analysis with Owen, Hoddle and Wrighty and all 3 said it wasn't a pen. They're all trying to say because Laca had already shot it shouldn't count but Sanchez still followed through him. I don't see why there's even a big discussion.
I'm thinking Wrighty is trying to appear unbiased but he also queried the 2nd Lamela yellow. Lamela was very lucky to be uncarded before the first booking and it could be argued the elbow should have been a straight red.

How the hell Kane isn't carded for that tackle in the back of Gabriel is beyond the pale. How he keeps on getting away with just being a dirty player game in and game out. If that was an Arenal player it would have been at least a yellow and MOTD would discuss if it should have been a red card and how undisciplined Arsenal players are! ****ing wankers the lot!We receive so many **** calls which don't even get discussed in post match analysis mostly but this pen is? The media bias and hate is real.
The Kane push on Gabriel was not even present in the motd highlights ffs
Saw it again and here's why I think he got the pen. He could have recovered and got the ball as it hasn't gone very far. If it had gone over or wide he wouldn't have gotten itAnywhere else.on the pitch it's a foul and a yellow
I disagree. Even if Laca doesn't swing he would have still been taken outIt wasn't really a tackle attempt going that high, just a desperate attempt to block the ball that Laca mishits.
The problem is that the contact is really made because Laca swings his leg, not because Sanchez is aiming there. At that point there's nothing Sanchez could do to avoid contact, the inertia of Lacazette's failed shot simply means he'll end up clashing his foot with Sanchez.
In a more normal scenario, say, running a full speed and shooting with the defender sliding to try and block the ball and contact made in the end, this wouldn't be a penalty at all. It was given because the angle looks pretty savage, as that still image shows.
Because we won against our biggest rivals in an NLD and Arteta Out bum squad clearly aren't happy about it. Would rather see us lose if it meant we get rid of him quicker.I don’t get why there’s such a debate on the penalty, if that happens anywhere else on the pitch everyone accepts it’s a blatant late foul.
