It'll give Wenger the chance to put forward his suggestion again that we do away with throw-ins.







What an idiot.

Best PL manager ever.

1-1.

Yep, equaliser for Bendtner (32 mins).

Beautiful header from Bendtner. Just as route 1 as Stoke.

Don't think the Stoke player did anything wrong there. He was sent off because Ramsey broke his leg. The Stoke player just lost out on a 50/50, that's all. Nothing there worthy of a red IMO.

Didn't see the incident just caught the aftermath. From Shawcross' reaction it would seem he didn't mean him harm. He looked distraught. Just hope it heals quickly and Ramsey can get back playing.

Wasn't watching it when it happened. Just saw Campbell (I think) jumping up and down kicking off to the ref about it. Sounds bad and from the look of the Arsenal players faces (most beefing) it sounds similar to the Eduardo injury from afew years back. Ramseys young, I'm sure he'll recover rather quickly and get back in the team.

Indeed.

All cynicism about the incident aside, I hope Ramsay makes a quick recovery

Eduardo. You donkey.

Think the ref got the two penalty calls spot on.

Sure, the Stoke player was close to Bendtner, but you do an impersonation of a scarecrow and the ball hits your arm, it's a pen.

The second one was shoulder to shoulder and the Stoke player was stronger.

Worst thing about this is that Arsenal will be bleating about their mental strength. They don't actually have it, but something like this might help them get some.

Having watched the incident now i don't think it was a red card. It wasn't a great challenge but it wasn't red. I'd put it on a par with the one Fabregas did later on in the game on the edge of the Stoke box. Except it was at 100mph with 2 players making what seemed like genuine attempts to play the ball in my opinion.

No mental strength? They score more goals in the last 10 minutes than any other team. The idea that Arsenal have a soft centre is a myth. A couple of years ago, yes, they would have lost tonight. But they've done well to turn that round.
