Did Smalling play the first half?
He looks out of his depth this first 5 minutes

They're gonna rip us a new one should we meet next year in the World Cup out there.

Harsh McHarshy harsh to give the penalty. Good stop by Hart as well as getting back up.

Harsh?

Thats a penalty all day long.

FFS learn the laws of the game. It's a penalty If the handball is deliberate, that wasn't deliberate he was turning from the ball.

FFS stop using TLA's.

He raised his arms towards his chest instinctively to cushion his chest/body from the impact of the ball.

The ref thought so too. End of.

Was it deliberate handball? No

End of.

Are you an Arsenal fan?

Yep, one that understands the laws of the game.

He moved his hand/arm to the ball, not the other way round, so handball.

Anyway, having watched Baines all these years, I think they are under using his attacking ability down the left. The 1-2 he and Pienaar use at GP doesn't really seem to be getting used at all. Very seldom for England will Baines get the opportunity to knock them in, or surge into the box from the left.

I'm still struggling to see what all this hype about Neymar is.

Gary Neville had his detractors as a player, but he has really shown what a very good pundit person can do.

bks did he. The ball came towards him, he was turning away and tried to get his arm out of the way.

To be fair, this is a problem with this particular law. We've both seen the incident come to completely different decisions so what chance has the ref got?

He must have some dodgy photos of itv execs. It's the only explanation.
