Not sure why VAR didn't send the ref to the screen for the offside leeds player being in the keepers view. He wasn't the only one blocking it but he was blocking it. Petrovic even has to jump up to see over the top of him which means he wasn't set for the shot.

It would be slightly more funny if Arsenal miss out, so I hoe the cheats win (and then have the title stripped, ideally).  But, let's not take out eyes off the real prize here.  Spurs going down would be truly hilarious and perhaps that happening during the same season as Arsenal winning the league would make those slow song singing pricks misery complete.

Stop it. There is no way any of the Yorkshire White's boys had any impact on goal keeper's ability to make a save.

Lamal rumoured torn hamstring scoring a penalty.

I think Kevin de Bruyne did the same earlier this season.

The reality is, every Man City win has an asterix against it right now...

Must be galling for their fans.

I'm assuming sarcasm, but they have all leaned into the 'innocent until proven guilty' position, which is perfectly fine - I'd do the same.  Another reason why it's SO galling that the whole charges thing has taken so long.  Just punish them already...

The offside for third got me, the guys arm is 'offside', you can't score goals with your arms, if fact quite the opposite.

It was the sleeves so that was ok.

On the Leeds goal it is fairly clear if you are looking raise and standing in front of the goalie it’s offside. Always has been until last night.

It was his shoulder, which you can score from and/or not be called handball if it hits.
