of course I would, but I have a bias there

its a soft call, and it doesn't get made if the game is in London

but by the rule book its a yellow

Of course, I would be too were it against Liverpool.

Its the 'right' call, insofar as the letter of the law is concerned, but in my opinion it was soft as all hell.

You cant blame the ref for making the call, but for a second yellow I would have maybe 'not seen it.'

Its actually kind of comical. Based on the stats Arsenal have had 25% possession, which I think is generous, and not a single shot, either on goal or otherwise, and yet its 1-1.

Arsenal player sent off against Barca, where I have seen this movie before. BS decision but no shock, this ref hasn't a clue out there.

Too bad a ridiculous call ruined what could have been a great second half.

think the only team left that can possibly get by Barca is Man Utd, you have to hold them to a clean sheet at home and if Vidic and Rio are healthy enough I think they can do it

but other than that...

Arsenal didnt register a single shot and managed only 24% possession. I think the referee's decision aside, it was not looking good for Arsenal to go through.
