Ignore offside calls that seem dubious, VAR’s seeming unfairness, Mikel Arteta’s uneasiness, haughty remarks made by teams that ought to know better, Anthony Taylor, long games that seem to go on forever, and the nuances of the handball rule. The best team in the Premier League will win, no matter what; the lowest team will go to the bottom. Never give credence to the notion that VAR compromises the integrity of the game. Players trying to trick referees, managers who allow this behavior, and teams like Arsenal that back their manager’s elitist statements are what really damage the Premier League’s…
Ange Postecoglou, who guided Chelsea to a wild 4-1 victory over his old team, Tottenham’s emotional comeback under Mauricio Pochettino, voiced his displeasure with VAR, claiming it has diminished the fun of football.

The manager of the Spurs remarked, “I don’t like it.”…

Arsenal defended their manager on Sunday by lamenting the quality of officiating in a strongly worded statement. They will have…
Monday night’s London derby was turbulent for Spurs, as they lost 4-1 and Ange Postecoglou’s perfect start to the Premier League came to an end. Cristian Romero and Destiny Udogie were issued red cards throughout the game, which ruined the game and cost the home team dearly. Interestingly, Spurs stuck with their high defensive line even though they were short on players. Chelsea took advantage of the situation, often breaking past the high line to give themselves one-on-one opportunities against Tottenham’s goalkeeper, Guglielmo Vicario. Vicario produced some outstanding saves, but he was unable to stop Nicolas Jackson from scoring three…
At his press conference after the game, Arteta voiced his strong disapproval, especially with the game’s winning goal.

At St. James’ Park, Newcastle defeated Arsenal 1-0 thanks to a close-range goal from Gordon that was assisted by…
After Bernardo Silva’s outstanding performance in City’s 6-1 victory over Bournemouth, which propelled them to the top of the Premier League, Joleon Lescott compared Bernardo Silva to Manchester City great David Silva. The talented Belgian player Jeremy Doku was instrumental in the game, giving the home team four assists and a goal. For the first thirty minutes, Bournemouth kept City at bay until Doku scored the first goal with a fantastic one-two with Rodri. After that, he set up Bernardo, who scored City’s third goal after defying Manuel Akanji with another shot that found the target, giving City a 3-0…

Thinking back on his personal encounter, Hazard expressed his want for a considerate response. He implied that supporters recognized his obligation to his new team and valued the effort he had done for Spurs. Hazard thought that even though he scored against Spurs, the supporters knew it…
“I feel sick.” Mikel Arteta made no attempt to hide his displeasure with the VAR officials following Arsenal’s Saturday night 1-0 loss to Newcastle United. The demoralized manager took his rage from the post-game press conference into the flash interview that followed the final whistle, fuming that it was “unacceptable,” “embarrassing,” and “a disgrace” to allow Anthony Gordon’s goal to stand. Naturally, Newcastle manager Eddie Howe had a different opinion. “It looked a good goal to me.” This is an explanation of the uncertainty that turned Arteta’s stomach and why the match authorities agreed with Newcastle’s manager. Why was Anthony…
