ARSENAL LEGEND CRITICIZES THE PLAY OF GABRIEL JESUS
Arsenal legend has criticized Gabriel Jesus for going down too easily for a penalty. The Gunners striker went down in the box against Liverpool to win a penalty. It turned out to be the winning goal in the match. The match finished 3-2 and the penalty was scored by Bukayo Saka. However, surprisingly Ian Wright was not happy with the decision.
He said,
” Arsenal played well throughout the game and Liverpool showed how dangerous they can be because they are a quality side,” said Wright. “I have to say, the penalty, if it was against me, then I wouldn’t be happy about it.“At the end of the day, it’s what has decided the game.“Do you know when they showed the magnified one (close-up on Thiago making contact with Jesus’ boot)? Is that enough of a touch? He’s not falling over there! Is that enough to give a penalty?!”
MIKEL ARTETA WILL BE TAKING THE WINS HOWEVER THEY COME
Ian Wright and other experts will be having problems with the goal. However, Mikel Arteta will certainly not have any problems. The win against Liverpool keeps them at the top of the Premier League table. Another argument is both Arsenal and Liverpool equally deserved to win the match. Many fans also said that the draw would be a fair result.
However, the Gunners had luck on their side. Although, many people are also seeing a number of changes in the Premier League table this season. Arsenal are currently at the top of the Premier League table. Whereas, title challengers Liverpool are 10th in the table. Things can also go from bad to worse for Liverpool. The Reds will face Manchester City in their next Premier League game.
Hence, Arsenal have the chance to increase the gap in the Premier League table. They face Leeds United in their next game. Hence, they can keep their top place over Manchester City. It can happen because Liverpool and Manchester City will leak goals as they attack each other goals with full energy.
