Arsenal vs Villarreal REF WAS HORRIBLE

[soybostero]

Am I the only one that though that ref seemed to be leaning for Arsenal?

[Teso Dos Bichos]

Everyone did.

[giallorossissimo]

He looked evilish too.

It was almost funny watching him telling a suffering Jose Mari to get up.

[ForeverRed]

OH don't be ridiculous, there were decisions that went against Arsenal as well.

Besides, Villareal were lucky to get away without a red card after some terrific diving.

[HSEUPASSION]

Thought he called a good game, didn't let people get away with diving.

If he was pro-Arsenal he'd have overturned the offside which led to the goal, he didn't.

[infected redded]

retarded ref, villareal will win biatches :)

[PsychedelicCeltic]

Oh goody. I'm waiting.

dry your tears.
villareal never wouldve made it past the premilinary round if they hadnt received some crooked calls against everton way back at the start of the season.

last thing I want to see is a lame La Liga final.
villareal are dull as dish water.
arsenal also had a good goal chalked off for "off-side" .

[Hazzathewazza]

I thought the Ref was OK. He wasnt conned by all the Diving!

[Sir Martin Keown]

the only horrible thing I saw was the constant cheating, diving and timewasting from Villareal..... the ref did well, not taken in by it all. Though that gimp Jose Mari should of had a penalty, the reason he didn't can be put down to karma..... either way, it's cancelled out by the disallowed Arsenal goal.

The worst incident was when the big burly Italian centreback for Villareal went down after being touched by henry, Llundberg stupidly does the sporting thing and kicks the ball out. Villareal throw it back but immediately press the Arsenal players into losing possession....... how very low

I would love to see these players given a proper reason to go down, a good kick in the bollocks for starters, followed by an uppercut

PLEASE GET UR FACTS RIGHT------- tachinardi is not a centre back for villarreal- he is a defensive midfileder. oh and by the way u dont seem to know very much about football rather than in england (the italian teams post)
Oh and by the way the last sentence just disturbs me and shows ur naiveness.(did u see quiqe alvarez twist his ankle- he wasnt diving there was he?):mad: :mad: :mad:

[leg_breaker]

A continental team displaying a lack of sportsmanship? Say it ain't so!

This guy will do anything to knock not only Italian soccer, but Italians in general.

Please sir, tell me: Why the pure hatred toward Italian people?

no, that penalty can't be cancelled by the disallowed goal because loosing 2-1 is better than loosing 1-0.

You are paranoid, it's pure coincidence that I have slated Italian football twice in two days...

...you have to admit, he was the biggest cheat last night?

and sure that other guy did twist his ankle, but why would anyone have any sympathy when the rest of the team spent half their time on the ground..... Villareal were an awful advert for football. Before anyone tells me I have a problem with Spanish football, I think Barce are a great advert for football and most Spanish teams play the game the way it should be played.

[gumbacicc]

It is amazing just how biased these Arsenal fans are. You got an absolute gift when the referee did not call that clear PK against you.

Getting hacked by Arsenal thugs is diving?
Sure, you're making excuses as to why you didn't win by a larger margin.

Sendeross and Gilberto could have gotten assault charges on some of their tackles.

Please explain to me why Jose Mari was taken down by a two footed tackle that then twisted his knee up underneath him outside the box but NOTHING was awarded? No freekick, no card? Watch that play again if it is possible and you'll clearly see that was a viscious foul that deserved a free kick, if you can't admit to that your full of it.

Most of the tackels you guys are calling dives were harsh, but I will admit the offsides was iffy and there were some hard assed tackles against your squad as well.

If it wasn't for a ref missing two obvious handballs in the Benfica match, not to mention a coupel shirt tugs one of which took down a Benfica player in the box you guys woudln't even be here.

Same old Arsenal kicking, thugging, and bitching.

There are some really deluded dickheads on this site, of course it was a penalty but if the ref was completely fair he would of already been booked twice for diving, as would most of the rest of Villareal. Maybe I have a different belief in football than you but diving is the worst thing in football. You all sound like a bunch of **********'s who can't take a tackle.

Apparently there are actually people on this planet who believe this.

And you sound like the typical meathead who thinks tackling is fine as long as it isn't against his precious Arsenal.

Tackling against opponents is part of the game.
Tackling against my team is bullish thuggery. Right?

Falling down from a tackle by one of my teams guys is diving
Falling down from a tackle from an opponent is understandable because they don't play football properly?
