That's got me wondering now tbh...
Ah well, look on the bright side, the transfer window opens in 5 hours.
Roll on a month of sanchez and Özil drama

Well happy new year I guess. ****. Who cares.

Look, as long as humans officiate matches without any assistance, mistakes will occur, there's nothing you, nor I, nor the manager can do about that.
If you want to lead a crusade against the alleged biases of leading officials, by all means, go for it.
Rather than toss and turn in despair, the manager would be better served focusing on all that which falls under his control.
The fact of the matter is this wasn't some tight contest against a fellow top 4 competitor, this was bottom of the league West Brom who we struggled against.

More evidence that Mike Dean is not fit to do his job at this level, Barry getting away with this unbooked. I'm dumfounded.....
Was good today would love to keep his placeAnyhoo, Chambers is rubbish.
Anyhoo, Chambers is rubbish.
He was good this game and been good in every performance so far this season
Player:Saliba
1. Bad performance but on New Years Eve, 2 days after last away game, 3 days before Chelsea you take it when it ends 1-0
2. Özil leaving will be a bigger loss than Sanchez imo.
3. Lacazette... tick tock
4. Petr Cech haha fuming
5. Great quote from Wenger but he’s run out of gas
6. Happy New Year

Why can't Cech save a penalty, btw.
I feel this goes undersaid, I mean, he's never saved for us, and it isn't half the problem this time. But it'd be nice for him to just once save a penalty. Just once.

Not a great performance at all. But seriously how many games have we had decisions go against us now?
Stoke
Watford
City
United
Southampton
West Brom
That’s just off the top of my head. We need to spend in January otherwise we’ll get left behind. There were only three players on the pitch today that showed any attacking quality for us.
On a more positive note I thought Musatfi was good again today, other than his standard 1-2 lunges per game. Chambers looks much better, still looks vulnerable when dragged out wide.

Especially today.
Country: England
A false argument - they played 5 across the back and even Man City struggled today against that kind of defensive effort from Palace. Man Utd suffered likewise the other day and they were at home against Saints.
West Brom played their hearts out defensively but that’s all they did.
It was was a truly, truly shocking refereeing decision, flying the face of supposed “policy” and it’s cost us two points - and that’s a fact.
If Dean doesn’t get dropped for that decision, it’s an outrage.

Dunno why Wenger is talking about the schedule, Tottscum play Tuesday and Thursday this week (Not bothered about them, but). Plus, our first team have not played that much as a different team has played in EL.

I don’t want a crusade I want consistency.
Fine margins decide games. I’d rather it was decided by teams’ competence or ineptitude rather than by decisions like this.
And your final point: this is the Premier League. There are always tight games. And yes, the team could have scored before, and should have created more chances. But that is a different debate. But City drew today against a team we beat.
It was a wrong decision that cost the game. Not incompetencies.

**** decision by Dean. Not quite sure bringing Per on against a team who was sitting back was a bright idea. Just go to a 4 and play Mustafi/Chambers in the middle surely!
Anyway. We move on. Not a big deal anymore. A point or three points. It doesn't make too much different when you are playing for the 4th place trophy.

Think this was worse then the Gabriel sending off, tbh. With most incompetent ref decisions, you can sort of, through the murk, see why they've given their decisions. But Dean's decisions are completely without logic.
