HORRENDOUS REF!!! (Robbie) | Arsenal 1-1 Brighton

[Applause] hi WC to AFV I got Robbie with me we've just drawn 1 one to Brighton here at the Emirates feel like a loss no it doesn't feel like a loss because I you know we could have lost that's how it don't feel like a lost cuz we could have lost they're a good side they're a very very good side they're unbeaten you know I mean they won last week you know I mean they won the first week against 10 men they were in that game as well against Everton and and they pumped them so and we literally had a whole half to play against a team that moves the ball around well you know I mean they got really good wide players really dangerous I think you take that you know I mean you take that point listen it's it's still early in the season I know people will be like oh we dropped points you ain't going to win the league listen it's way too early to say that don't lose the game don't lose Julian was saying to me earlier but if he was trying to tell me that um the percentage is if you it's one point gained or two points n psychologically you've lost at home that's not good right so I thought that we really were gritty we dug in and I'm happy with the fact that we got a point although obviously a bit disappointed because you know we were so comfortable at 1-0 and I think we'd have went on and win won the game two three I really do we were comfortable we'll get to some of the factors of what went happened in the game but Turkish was saying after the transfer win is now closed say this is the reason why that we should be ass signing an attacker cuz when you're look into the bench and there's a man off the pitch you need need an attacker maybe to change the game even though we are 10 men there's no we not we haven't got anyone available I don't know what he's talking about cuz what did he mention that hav scored again today right a player that he's been fighting against right that's two and three for hav as a striker he missed a big chance as well should have taken he missed a chance but I thought today he was one of our best players he created Havoc today for them right and when you're down to 10 men you need that Target man who's going to hold up the ball and create chances right and it wasn't just him who missed a chance he missed one CH he also scored a great goal let's not forget that so listen that what I don't think necessarily it's a game really where you bringing on an attacker it's a game where youve got to make sure you don't lose the game and where our Squad showed the strength there you're able to bring on players like Cal fiori you're able to bring on you know um Zin Cheno able to bring on defense defensive minded players that could help us to make sure that we didn't concede they didn't really have many big chances they had a lot of the ball we had the big chance the one that fell for herberts and the one for sacka so um no I think listen I think that was a gritty performance by us we we got to take the positives from it in a game that was ruined by a referee Ry Rya did make a good save in the game as well but you're right I think more more their Tacko from Aral yeah and I think if we had 11 men would have won that game so you happy that arsenal when they went down 10 men they they look to towards the end reserve and well preserve the point instead of like I heard y man say about three at the back I heard man saying you should have brought a maybe go I always remember years ago right I was at a function right and granite Jacka was there right right and it was a game that I can't remember who's playing but it was a game that we lost that we we were um I think it was 1-1 and we went for it and I remember he said to me he goes yeah our big mistake he goes we're all saying it after the game just don't lose the game and when you're down to 10 men don't lose you can go again on the next game and don't lose that game so to me it's not about flooding the pitch with it we flood the pitch of attackers now and they go and score a couple quick goals and we you know we lose the game 3-1 what's it everyone out here saying don't lose the game they dug in you I mean it's it's under the circumstances I'll take that it's it's a decent point and as we're going to get to it now I think the referee in decision to send off DE R I think you can see from my face and my emotion from that Absolut from what we saw we we was in a show see replays of it I still can't make sense of it I think the ref is just terrible terrible what you saw it's a disgraceful decision where I sit right listen it all happened over in the corner um I sort of near the halfway line so you know I I really I thought first of all I thought he' given their guy a red carard that's that's I I think I think right and then I said I said to Julian no he's given Dean rice a second yellow right and then I'm like something don't look right about that but I'm too far away to notice I'm like yo you know what I've been mugged off before in games where I said uh let me wait and see when I get out and I have a look at it what when I came out and a guy said to me y Robie you seen it said to myself why the way that guy said it and he looked so angry right I said let me let me go and look on my phone when I saw it as absolutely disgraceful decision that referee shouldn't be referee number why did he do that you it's one of those decisions you do not have to make you know I mean it's just a little use common sense common sense it's in the it's in your rense use common sense why are you sending off a player giving him a second yellow ruining a whole football game live on TV for that what is he thinking honestly that he should not be refereeing yeah this is terrible absolutely you know I mean a lot of times I'm interviewing people here and they come on and they moan about refs and I'm like the other side you got to play the other side yeah and I'm like you're human beings they make mistakes but that one the one today that's inexcusable you ain't even got to make that decision if you don't make that decision briting are not uping arms exactly they're not uping arms and saying oh that was an not no nobody's complaining nobody no pundit's complaining no one no one he's made that off of his own back he's decided that he's going to ruin a game of football I don't know maybe as a he's maybe an England fan he was upset with defin Rice's performances at the Euros from manester here I'm going to get him right in this game I'm going to get rice you know I mean because honestly that decision was horrendous absolutely horrendous the referee spoiled the game today how do you watch that and yeah you just said it it wer just I see J Pedro kick the ball away miles in the first half nothing no yellow card not even a warning yeah you know sometimes they go up to it's early in the game warning I saw sacka today getting kicked up that's team's tactics to frustrate us y mean one p back nothing Let It Go nothing and then something as minimal as that honestly that decision was horrendous right um people say rules it's the rules Robbie that's what they say the letter of the law you there's no one on the pitch if you go letter of the law for absolutely everything right use common sense common sense that is not a second yellow card it's disgraceful disgraceful if that's how football starts to be refereed there' be like with finish games it be like eight nine players on each side on the pitch horrendous decision I honestly I don't know man I I the referees in this country I'm sorry to say you know I mean when I see these performances you know I mean he even velman also ripped one of our players down as well like there there's so many other ex you and it happens in games it's quite it's a physical game of football I'm not saying you book people you know for everything but if you're going to do that to Declan rice then you got to be consistent then now next minut you know red cards are getting waved all over the place that's why referees use common sense you know what I mean that is not something to send a player or for absolutely fum him man like he ruined the game he cost us three point we were comfortable before that comfortable everything has to change after that you saw for about 10 minutes after that happened we were Shell Shocked yeah we're like what's happened there you know what I mean like our discipline is been I think that de has never been sent off in his career I think no he got sent off for Arsenal against he against West yeah I don't remember de rice ever getting sent off dear rice is is a hard player but he's not a dirty player deice is not a there was no malice in what he was doing at all honestly shocking shocking decision by the referee right what are they going to come out and say with the letter of the law all right then we want to see it in every game every game and if it's the letter of the law explain to J Pedro incident explain many other incidents in the game no listen I don't want to see games with red cards being banded about left right and Center even when we're playing teams I want to see players I want to see 11 against 11 unless it's a very vious reason why players should be sent off but that today that is shocking absolutely shock we shouldn't be coming out of here talking about referees and we come out here now he's the center of attention I mean where's Tai man I mean I'm scared he's going he's going to maybe he's going to have a cold shower and cool down bro because he's going to be absolutely fum and today I'm with him yeah I'm with we're all I think we're all with I'm with him I'm in the tie Army today man you I mean cuz trust me TI Army today bro because the referee was absolutely shocking there's nobody here who can back up yeah what he did to even if listen if that was the other way around even me even me I'll be be going yeah referee man listen I'll take the three points obviously I'm happy if we won the game but I'll be looking at and thinking yo what's that joke te if I saw that if I saw that in my son's playing everyone's up in arms let alone profession these referees are professionals i' I've been to stockley park I've seen them I remember one time walked in in a room I shouldn't be there and they were all in there doing what they're all in there watching videos studying and all that bro I'm telling you that that was terrible today that nobody will come out and say anything they'll try and defend him listen he's a human being but BR you as a professional referee that's a shocking shocking error he's made today ruined a good game of football are you worried for the north London Derby now no no rice obviously Marin still out he ain't going to be available no de rice but you know I think Geor Jor stepped in he's done brilliantly I thought pte today played really well you know I mean so it's a big blow you know I mean dean rice is the sort of player you want in games like that so it's a big blow but I still think we can cope and um you know R Sterling be ready for that game so you know could get his debut at getting the north l d i see him scoring in that game you said it here now just before we kind of wrap up here you said about the referee you've said you know your main focus on that but we had chances yeah Saka could have went down I think he should have went down hav has had a chance even odard in the first half on the ball cross him by I think that was a big one in the game the odard won he missed two Sitters in two weeks Alison I ain't going to criticize him too much he's a brilliant player he's going to work on his finishing a little but he should have had two goal he should have scored last week and and and trar must be got it because that assist by the way the way he whipped that in straight away yeah I think TR you know I think odard would be very disappointed he hadn't buried that but we take it we take the point man you know I mean they dug in they were really gritty you know I mean I was proud of the performance in the end but the referee has ruined a great game of football today he's ruined the game today nearly ruined that whole weekend ruined mine I'm honored and pleasured to have an Arsenal legend in the building David Seaman ladies and gentlemen Mr Dean can you hear me no way it was larger than life in every way and he was a hero not just with the fans but with the players as well they all loved him he was that good that in training Steve Steve bald and Tony Adams that he would embarrass them and they would try and kick him yeah to to slow him down a bit and they couldn't catch him the ponytail on the head I was born with aach I remember seeing an Arsenal team celebrating gting four yeah and I was like quite a little way here you know we've done what we did it's their time to go and create their own history
