Watching the Arsenal game I had forgotten how the top sides make so many
Tactical fouls to prevent counter attacks and repeatedly get away with it. I can remember Man City and Liverpool doing it against us. Arsenal low do it too. Just take out the player before they can reach the half way line and 99 times out of 100 they don’t get a yellow card for it. I suppose not surprising given who Arteta learnt his trade under.
Something we have never mastered although our players would no doubt get booked for it.
