This of course skew the statistics if you choose to not "look under the hood".
Sincerely, this was not a match with a lot of timewasting. This was a match with a predetermined narrative upheld by media and Brightons pityful man of a manager. I would gladly admit if it was not...
Also, it doesn't take into account the actual events that made up the time. Only the total time. If you dissect it you'll see that Brighton fouled us 14 times, got a lot of yellow cards, put the ball out of play A LOT (8 shots off target, many throw ins).
I was actually laughing at the hypocrisy of certain Brighton players that first stood in the way of fast restarts that Arsenal players tried and then pointing to an imagined clock afterwards. Comical.
Okay, my mistake!
Did you watch the match though?
Brighton players were culpable of standing in front of the freekick taker, kicking the ball away and holding Raya or blocking his way after he'd claimed the ball. All of this prohibited fast restarts thus adding a lot to that time.
..-it didn't suit the narrative that "Arsenal are using the dark arts" so the pundits clearly chose to frame it in another way.
Huerzelers press conference afterwards was the most shameful act of ignorant petulant I've seen from a PL manager this season...
Yeah, the hypocrisy of Brighton players complaing to the ref of timewasting after they themselves were culpable of standing in front of the freekick taker, kicking the wall away or holding Raya or blocking his way after he'd claimed the ball was really something to behold.
-..whilst some of the 30 minutes was unreasonable timewasting by Arsenal and Brighton (of which the majority was by Arsenal).
But "30 minutes timewasting by Arsenal" is just plain dishonest framing...
I suspect the formulation of that sentence is rather misleading.
My guess is that the ball was in play for 30 minutes less than the actual playing time. Of those 30 minutes the majority must be the reasonable time it takes for different set piece-actions ans such..-
Could you find how Sweden fare now in this ranking?
In 2013 they're 3rd but they've progressed far in their privatized healthcare the last decade or two so I think they might've fallen?
The reason why Arsenal seem to get hated/bad treatment from refs etc. https://redd.it/1qdz1ha
Can someone please find a video of this?
Why do you write "We" as if you are included in our fanbase. Please don't, cause your not.
You know who's a pile of shit? You, my guy, you are a pile of stinky shit. Everytime you write you bring your foul eller with you.
No, Gyokeres is not dog shit. But you my guy, you are dog shit.
Yeah, and you're acting like a real sane person with ample social skills.
Try engaging in honest and respectful discussion and you'll see that you'll get more sympathy and good will.
Are you for real? You wrote that Arsenal had one injured defender and someone replied that we had many more than that.
You could've answered something like "Oh, I didn't know that" but your response to that was "Stop being so sensitive".
Who is a "deranged crank that needs to grow up"?
Hahahah, I feel sorry for you my guy. What a happy life you must be living!
No, but you wrote about Arsenal and Arsenal fans. Purposefully or not, you wrote wrongful information and was called out for it. Afterwards, you started acting like a baby. Get a grip of yourself, mate...
Seems like one of those guys with too little real world life and too much spare time.
Typing hatred and rage bait in his foul smelling room full of dirty underwear and old pizza cartons. Be my guest...
Hahaha, what's up with the fixation with people who aren't locals?
Are you Farage in disguise?
Do you feel alright, @thetoffees.bsky.social? You're brain seems stuck or something?
For real though, try to take a pause and zoom out bro. You're making a fool out of yourself.
I seem to have missed something Thomas Frank has said about Eze prior to the game?
To be fair Eze did his part well in creating those opportunities. It wasn't exactly like they put it on a plate for him, like Foden did.
Do you know who's rubbish? You are. A rubbish troll. Go wank off your sock @justoffthestriker.bsky.social
I'm actually surprised that there is so much red to the left of the heat map
Okej, jag fattar!
Bra initiativ! Men jag tror att ni hade fått in mer pengar om man får en bok för ett mindre bidrag än 750kr.
I can somewhat understand immature 13 yr olds using misogynistic language equating pussyhole with "weak". But something tells me your not 13 and thus really should stop using that type of parables. It's unfitting of a grown man. Even more unfitting of an Arsenal supporter, we are classier than that
Your caption "Just out here trying to be a good guy and share, laugh and learn with others" seems like the lie of the century judging by this comment.
