Bournemouth were great today but to a man, Arsenal's players looked paralysed by fear.
For some weird reason, the sight of their head coach bouncing around his technical are like Basil Fawlty thrashing his car with a tree branch for 90 minutes doesn't instill onfield calm and confidence.
Futbol! Huzzah!
I do not know what laws VAR is looking at, if it can't penalise this.

The man wore crocodile boots, a white cowboy hat and a belt buckle the size of a license plate. Clint Dempsey doesn't remember his full name—hell, nobody in Nacogdoches, Texas, does—but you couldn't miss him on the sidelines of Nac-town's Mexican League games, amid the cigar smoke and the fajita carts and the horchata peddlers. He was the guy betting cash money on the cocky 15-year-old gringo to beat men more than twice his age, proud men from Mexico and El Salvador who'd throw you to the East Texas dirt for trying a fancy move on them. Sixty, eighty, one hundred dollars! The man kept wagering, and Dempsey's team, Zamora, kept winning. "He called me," says Dempsey, "his Little Rooster."
