Exactly.

by Shed Tue Oct 07, 2014 8:07 am

Precisely. But the ref favoured us. Ooookay Suspect

by Shed Tue Oct 07, 2014 8:18 am

Actually, come to think of it, Sanchez's little fit on Ivanovic was violent conduct and should have been a sending-off too. So that's 4.

Very true.

Chelsea too good for Arsenal, says Wojciech Szczesny:
Arsenal goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny got a close look at how clinical Chelsea are as they scored 2 goals from just 3 shots on target, while never looking like conceding
http://www.express.co.uk/sport/football/519471/Wojciech-Szczesny-says-Chelsea-were-too-good-for-Arsenal

"It was a very even game, but Chelsea have an ability to keep clean sheets at home and they were very good, they took their chances with two brilliant moments."

"One, the brilliant run from Hazard which led to the penalty. On the second goal, the ball from Cesc Fabregas and the finish. Sometimes you've got to take your hat off to the brilliance of the opposition."

"You can't say we've played badly against Chelsea, it's just that we've come up against a very strong side, probably the favourites to win the Premier League at this point."

Arsenal failed to make possession count, says Wilshere:
Arsenal midfielder Jack Wilshere said his side had possession throughout their game against Chelsea on Sunday but paid the price for not having made it count
http://www.express.co.uk/sport/football/519471/Wojciech-Szczesny-says-Chelsea-were-too-good-for-Arsenal

"At times we controlled the game and that's the difference. At this level when you're playing against a top class team, when you're on top you have to really make it count. If you don't then you're going to get punished."

"We created a few half chances but we never really made it count. You didn't really see Cesc Fabregas or Diego Costa all game and then, all of a sudden, 50-yard ball and Cesc put it on Costa's foot and it's a great finish. Then the game's over."

Mertesacker: Arsenal have a long way to go to match Chelsea:
Per Mertesacker conceded Arsenal were very much second best at Stamford Bridge, and believes his side have a long to go to matching the standards set by Chelsea
http://www.express.co.uk/sport/football/519270/Per-Mertesacker-Arsenal-Chelsea-standards

"I think we defended quite well."

"There was always a cover, there was always protection."

"In the final third we had a couple of decent possibilities to come through, but we missed the last pass or the last touch."

"We have to admit that they are still better and we have to learn quickly."

Arsene Wenger ‘flew out of control’, says Koscielny:
Arsenal defender Laurent Koscielny says Gunners boss Arsene Wenger was ‘out of control’ when he shoved José Mourinho in the home side's technical area on Sunday
http://www.express.co.uk/sport/football/520094/Laurent-Koscielny-Wenger-Mourinho-fracas

"It’s a long history of friendship between the two coaches."

"The facts are that after Cahill’s tackle, I think the coach was a little upset because three days before Alexis Sánchez received the same tackle against Galatasaray. The player only got a yellow card."

"It’s true, he flew out of control."

Now his own players are slagging him off rofl

Gérard Houllier sympathises with Arsène Wenger over Mourinho push:
Ex-Liverpool boss Gérard Houllier says he ‘can understand’ Arsène Wenger's behaviour on Sunday, saying his compatriot ‘simply wanted to see if his player was okay’
http://www.express.co.uk/sport/football/520543/Houllier-Mourinho-Chelsea-Wenger-Arsenal-rivalry

"I understand Arsene, because he was annoyed because there was a tackle by Cahill on Sanchez."

"He simply wanted to see if his player was OK, and he pushed Mourinho."

-
"Just wanted to see if his player was okay" rofl

That's why he was looking dead straight at José from the moment he started charging over, right?

Arsene Wenger apologises for touchline clash with José Mourinho, but he insists he was ‘provoked’ by Chelsea boss and did not enter the home side's technical area:
Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has apologised for his touchline clash with Chelsea boss José Mourinho during his side's 2-0 loss at Stamford Bridge last weekend, but maintains it was the Portuguese who initiated the altercation
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2789842/arsene-wenger-apologises-touchline-clash-jose-mourinho.html

"They gave too much importance to this story. In hindsight I think I should not have reacted at all, it's not a way to behave on a football field."

"I always regret any signs of violence and I apologise, but that's part of games where everything is manic - and then we have quite a substantial past."

"Did Mourinho provoke me? That is how I felt. I did not enter Chelsea's technical area."

Oh BB

Seems like we need technical area technology to decide this one hmm

by Shed Mon Oct 13, 2014 11:12 pm

by Nedved Mon Oct 13, 2014 11:47 pm

Technically this picture's evidence is inconclusive as Wenger's right foot is not fully planted and there is no evidence to prove otherwise Chaka

Should have just hovered above it with his big flappy wings hmm
