That HAS to be a final warning playing it out, this keeper nowhere near Meslier with his feet.
Get shut or pass it quicker if you're playing it out.
Better still- stop it and don't, it's Arsenal ffs.

Why didn't Perri? ... Struijk played into trouble by his keeper, then Struijk played Stach into trouble

I'd keep Meslier, our only experienced and proven prem player...

Second time James has wasted possession in a good position

Brilliant from Stach and Struijk, cleanest shot of the game so far
