Yup, the ref ignored some blatant fouls and they were all clearly targeting Haaland.
It’s a shame. It was allowed to grab and tackle our players to the ground. But even our fan base is joining in on haaland hate with the dumb pundits
The only way to stop Haaland is to foul and get away with it
Luckily for City’s opposition, the PL is the anti-NBA and stars get worse treatment instead of preferential treatment
Anthony Taylor is a crap ref. He refused to hand out any well-deserved yellow cards for fouls. The only yellow cards shown to Arsenal players were in the second half for time wasting.
Haaland should either try fouling the CBs and test out how much he can get away with each refree in-charge or learn to drop deep and get involved. There’s only 2 ways of dealing with a notoriety like his. Either the Diego Costa / Van Nistelrooy way or the Kane / Benzema way. I know his reservations about being fit enough to play the maximum number of games in a calendar year, but he will simply have to compromise. This is the first time in his life where he played a full calendar year, mostly consisting of highstakes games. Let people call him leauge 2 level player. We know he will have the last laugh. It’s time for him to learn to get more involved or become a nasty player ( preferably a bit of both ).
Rice’s biggest and most stupid foul was against KDB within 20 min iirc. Refree had a clear view but he spared Bernado as well ( also a clear view ) so we know that it was just his style, which is to let people get away with fouls. Man City players would have wiped the floor with Arsenal forwards as well if we were put on the backfoot. Since they spent the 90 parking the bus, we never got to see that side of Man City.
Remove your sky-blue tinted glasses and ask yourself if Rodri , KDB , Bernado or Kovacic would have allowed any of their forwards to walk let alone shoot ( assuming Taylor still allowed fouls and man city were parking the bus and Arsenal firing ). Imagine what Fernandinho would have done 🙃.
” Kill someone, play with 9 men maybe ” – Pep when asked what should the players do when facing a reselient team and unable to create chances. This quote was probably directed at the new players. Everyone except Kovacic is pretty soft atm. They will learn in due time.
To grab a man by his balls is definitely a foul
Weak move. Stay classy and be above this
With all due respect yous were shite and down fuck all to win the game
This just shows the extent of fustreation the young man went through
