Mediawatch also features plenty on the nonsensical reaction to a pretty obvious Arsenal penalty:
‘The Manchester City keeper came out and Nketiah got his shot away before the momentum of both players saw a coming together, so I wouldn’t have awarded a spot-kick.’
Imagine a hypothetical scenario in which both players still take the same paths but instead of shooting, Nketiah takes a touch and goes past Ederson, who subsequently takes him out by crashing into him. It would be an obvious penalty with no debate. Just because Nketiah managed to shoot doesn’t make him fair game to knock over.‘Why Ederson wasn’t sent off for Manchester City in crucial Premier League win at Arsenal’ –Because it was a foul but not an offence worthy of a yellow card.
So we’re retrospectively considering it an official mistake that Arteta picked Matt Turner, Takehiro Tomiyasu, Rob Holding, Kieran Tierney and Fabio Vieira, resting a handful of key players, for an FA Cup tie Arsenal only lost narrowly to Manchester City?
