with Arsenal immediately after the match, when the injustices re the decisions hadn’t actually been highlighted yet?

During the match everyone was talking about how shit the decisions were. In the after match thread, before the comments from Arteta, everyone was talking about how shit the decisions were…

What were you ‘agreeing’ with exactly?

Agreeing with the fans who were saying it was unfair. Agreeing with the players who obviously thought it was the wrong decision. Taking their side. Thinking they were on the end of a bad call.

You are going for a gotcha on a technicality or slightly wrong wording used instead of discussing the point in good faith. You clearly know what was meant. Stop being disingenuous.

If you ‘agreed’ with Arsenal, neither the rant nor the statement should have changed your stance on that as the ‘rant’ essentially said they were the wrong decisions, and the statement was released to back the manager.

I agree with Arsenal regarding the decisions being wrong, as does almost everyone. No one changed their opinion on that, so I’m not sure why you are trying to claim that they did.

I disagree with Arteta having a meltdown and I disagree with arsenal putting out a statement, and I disagree with Arteta changing his tune. As do the majority seemingly.

None of this changes the fact that the decisions were wrong. And no one turned around and changed their mind about the decisions once arsenal and Arteta made fools of themselves. That’s just made up by people wanting to be a victim.

The ‘hypocrisy’ you’re talking about came from an out of context quote

That’s why I said believed hypocrisy. Because it was a while until the full quote came out. But even with the full quote you can argue that he isn’t exactly being consistent.

You don’t think it’s too much of a coincidence that an out of context quote began circulating the media immediately after, at the same time talking heads from the same broadcast company released identical statements?

It’s for clicks and money, like it always is. Again, nothing to do with arsenal specifically. Quotes and other things are taken out of context all the time for headlines and talking points. It probably happens more than in context stuff.

Man Utd are talked about and have articles written about them far more than any other team, and it’s always ignoring important context. Unfortunately that’s just the way it is. It isn’t a coincidence though.
