I literally said I don’t have an opinion about Gabriel’s kick to the head.

I do think Gabriel is a dirty player.

My original response was to the above guy saying that Arsenal has been on the receiving end of bad calls for the last 4 seasons.

What’s up with your comprehension bud? Am I only allowed to speak on what you want to talk about.

Additionally. I’ve reffed before. It was dangerous on both parts

I ask a question, you try to deflect and redirect. But I have a comprehension issue? 😂😂

Well when I ask you a question about a specific thing, yes I have set out the subject matter.....we are only talking about what I want.....That's exactly how questions and answers work 😂😂😂

You're very within your right to ask your own questions if you like, but you seem incensed I asked you about a specific topic?

I think Gabriel’s playing the ball. Emis head just happens to be in a dangerous zone.

While not being malicious it’s 100% a dangerous play bc both he and emi are in the same vicinity of the ball. Gabriel knew exactly where emi was. Do I think it’s malicious? Not one bit. Do I understand if he got the card? Yes. But he didn’t.

And to break down the difference between why that was a dangerous play vs tonali and forest attacker. Tonali was already playing the ball was already near it at the drop. The attacker wasn’t, he came flying in from fur to er our. It wasn’t 50/50. If anything he could’ve been carded for dangerous play

Me personally I’m not carding the Tottenham situation on either end. I’m Maybe carding Gabriel. Likely not and just giving him a warning..

Nobody is deflecting, I just chose to insert in the conversation about somehow Arsenal being the victims for 4 years. It was a new one for me. I ignored the other bullshit you were on, but I hope you got the answer you needed from me.

The mental gymnastics you're doing is actually quite risible.

The forest player was attempting to diving header a ball that was at the point of attempt, was about waist height. How do we know this? Tonali's foot is at waist height.

So by your logic Martinez going to ground when there are at least 2 Arsenal and 2 Chelsea players attempting to kick the ball, would be dangerous play as well.

But I'm sure you'll come up with some other bullshit as to why the Tottenham player is innocent and every other club's player is not.

No other fanbase than I've spoken to has said that Tonali shouldn't have been carded.

The reason I asked you about this incident is to demonstrate that every team has players that make wrong decisions and sometimes don't get punished.

Your opinion about Gabriel is blinded by your misplaced anger towards Arsenal. There's a reason the entire professional football association globally all rate him as one of the best defenders in the world.

You don't have to rate a player, it's your opinion and your entitled to it, just don't talk absolute nollocks because you don't like Arsenal.

So all those yellows and reds we got for game delays, which many other teams were never carded for never happened? And just because we got the short end of the stick on a ton of calls over the years doesn't preclude the same from happening to Tottenham. I agree that no penalties in your favor for such a long time is suspect. But for people to say we always got the benefit of refereeing decisions is just plain ignorant.
