It was in our hands a very short time ago. We only have ourselves to blame for hoping against hope that relegation fodder were going to do us any favours

Burnley at home and probably Palace kids for Arsenal. You see them dropping points in either of those?

Actually, to answer your question. Many teams hate the way the Arse play, so it would not surprise me at all if Palace and Burnley put up a fight . Even , in Burnley's case, just for the fun of it.
Balotelli......that's a brilliant finish.

So it is ok for the Arse to spend all season blocking goalies ?

Rice, trossard, and a few other players all bear hugging their man but that is ignored. Arsenal have been committing that same exact foul on the keeper on every corner all season and we just hear "well the keeper needs to be stronger"

So to reverse that goal is pure corruption plain and simple

I've just read that Arsenal have not had 1 red card all season and not conceded one penalty.

We blew it against Everton and fucked up against Burnely. Now we'll have to suffer watching and listening to cringe FC parade until next season.

This view is correct, look how many draws we have had we should have won, Chelsea springs to mind but there are others, that said we don’t look like a PL title winning team to be honest

If pablo is apparently blocking the arm of Rea, what is trossard holding and why is that not a foul ? I mean, trossard is not even trying to go for the ball, he is looking in the wrong direction.

Keeper was fouled and it was the right decision according to the pundits but Lewis-Skelly, Rice, Trossard, Odegaard all grabbing and holding West Ham players and well before the ball was anywhere near Raya.
Balotelli......that's a brilliant finish.

The Arse don't play well, but still get a result. It is not over yet

All depends on what phase of play you are in

It is Corruption plain and simple.

All Season Arsenal have been impeding Goalkeepers turning the Premier League in to the NFL.

Yet today the rules changed. We revert back to Football is a no contact Sport again because Arsenal are playing a Title defining game,

Fact is VAR was forensically analysing that West Ham Goal to find any excuse to disallow it. And that is exactly what they did.

In the Same play phase the Goal was scored. You can clearly see Declan Rice Bear Hug a West Ham player with two arms around his waist in to the Net.

You would think in the interest of fairness, analysing that entire play Phase. VAR would conclude that there was 2 fouls going on in that phase of play. But importantly the Declan Rice foul started before the Goal was scored .Meaning a penalty is given for the Declan Rice foul.

Instead VAR after showing extended video of the Goal that included the Declan Rice incident. They edit that clip down to where you don't see the incident in full and send the Referee over to the Monitor.

This is not Sour Grapes on my part, this is cheating plain and simple and it has happened all Season.

Also with every contentious VAR review you get Sky Gary Neville on his open TV Microphone pre-empting any VAR decision. Like he is speaking in code to Stockley Park " Call a Foiul.do you hear me clear Foul".

Small glimmer of hope is that arse looked nervy enough that there is a chance they can still drop points in these last two matches. With Arteta in charge they're not going to ride this out smoothly.

Just need to make sure we push them to the last day
