    My goodness that was a hard fought victory. This team's resilience is incredible. Raya and the CBs incredible once again. Beautiful goal from Bruno.

    12/12 maximum points, absolutely amazing!!

    Two-nil to the Arsenal!

    But holy shit Sunderland made it so tough! A lot of people still underestimate them. But they are legitimately a very tough team to beat - especially at home. This feels like a big statement win for us. On to the next.

    Just watched a few clips but my word that's a good penalty save from Raya. Ball don't lie.

    Not much more Le Fee could've done, too. I'm still of the opinion that the best penalty (Maguire's Euro 2020 one, or Kelly's pens for example) is one that is unsaveable, but I feel that one almost got there

    Also obviously banger from the Newcastle man against Sunderland which like that feels scripted lol. And a solid pen from Saka.

    The justification for it in the post match discussion, once again, doesn’t match up to what actually happened on the pitch.

    Premier League Match Centre (tweet)

    #SUNARS - 54' The referee's call of penalty to Sunderland for a holding offence by Konsa on Ballard was checked and confirmed by VAR.

    REF: "He's all over him at the near post facing the wrong way".

    VAR: "I'm happy that it's a holding offence. The foul is confirmed. Confirming the on-field decision of penalty".

    I saw it as Konsa being tight (facing the ball) on Ballard. Ballard has a big fistful of Konsa’s shirt, pulling him over and around. Good judo but No pen in football.

    Agree. Though Arteta's reaction was over the top. It doesn't matter in his 25-30 years of football that it wasn't a penalty. They changed the rules starting this season.

    And there will always be people trying to abuse new rules. VAR should have done better (jokes on me) but they only looked at the defender.

    The guys at MotD reponsed to this well. Hopefully the PGMOL agrees or we're going to see more players dropping lol ke flies at the slightest hold

    Just finished the full replay. A great away performance. All of our best qualities on display and shows were learnt a lot from the same fixture, last year. 🔴⚪️
