It doesn't matter whether you think somebody else wouldn't have gone down from the slap, the fact is Gervinho slapped him and deserved to get sent off. Barton only went down because he was slapped.

Swearing at the ref is an offence, throwing or kicking the ball away after the whistle has gone is an offence, shirt pulling and pushing others in the box while corners and free kicks are being taken are offences, players being in the box before a penalty has been taken is an offence, please tell me how often these offences go unpunished. Yes he deserved to be sent off but Baton should be booked for going down easily, and booked for grabbing a fellow players shirt and dragging him around with it also equalling a red card, but that didn't happen. No comeback to the fact that you yourself called it a dive?

personally i think a draw would of been a fair result neither side looked like scoring until frimpong went and both goals were offside

it is clear that arsenal need some new players but in better news nasri's move to man city has broken down OK

I had Liverpool to win 2-0 and Suarez to score first @ 70/1 and because the first goal was an o.g it rolled over to the second scorer Very Happy

When I said dive, I didn't mean it in the official sense, that a dive is when there is no contact but you still go down. The offence was punished because it was a more serious one than the ones you have listed, he failed to deliver a good hit to Barton, but he still hit Barton in the face a serious offence and Barton went down. I think if it wasn't Joey Barton who went down, you would say he was right to go down. It's wrong really, but in this day in age of football, because fouls and yellow cards and red cards can be so decisive, players have to make sure the referee has seen the offence.

Surely all offences should be punished? Saying it's not as serious as a tiny slap doesn't really make sense, all offences are offences and all should be punished in the way that they should be. Hahahahahahahaha trust me no matter who had gone down due to that slap I would be calling it a dive, if making sure the ref has seen the incident is so important then the players should tell the ref or some official somewhere should be able to tell him that Gervinho slapped Barton without Barton going down in the way that he did which is an offence in itself.

Is Sturridge still suspended?

How long will Chelsea keep starting Torres if he doesn't start scoring? Surely they'd be forced to start playing Drogba instead, and how come Kalou is starting? Drogba or Malouda would be better options I thought? Is Luiz injured?

Haven't saw Frimpong's sending off, but please tell me it was because of a foul on Suarez Laugh

Didn't get to watch the whole derby because of work, but our defence looked promising for the first half. Glad to get a win this week, still unbeaten :P

With Mata being brought in it's either Kalou or Malouda out the door imo. Can't see him keeping Drogba, Torres, Lukaku, Sturridge, Anelka, Kalou, Malouda and Mata all for three spots. Could probably lose Kalou and Anelka and not miss them too much. Why Malouda didn't start ahead of Kalou is baffling to me.

Chelsea just seem completely lost when going forward.

Lukaku should have started with Malouda and Benayoun!

Anelka has just equalised.

I think if Chelsea are going to stick with Torres, they need to show they have confidence in him and cash in on Drogba now, get rid of Kalou who I've never rated either. Anelka is still decent, and I think is more likely to be happier to take a back seat these days.

Tbf I don't think anyone expected you to pick up points against those two teams, but to have come close both weeks must be pretty annoying. Shane Long looks quite good at this level, I didn't think he'd be that impressive, but two goals in two games speaks for itself.

Didn't expect us to get anything but to then get close both times is really annoying.I think Chelsea were there for the taking today, we should have made changes earlier.

Long looks good, him and Odemwingie will be class together.

As long as you perform like that against teams lower than Chelsea and United you should have no problem picking up points.

The Norwich red card was never a sending off, and never a penalty. Got to feel for Norwich because they were well in control when it was 11v11.

I do think Livepool were the better side before Frimpong got sent off. But he has only got himself to blame, he was lucky he wernt sent off earlier. But he is the type of player Arsenal have been missing.

I think that we would have won the game when Suarez and Raul came on regardless of the sending off. Your defense didnt have enough legs left to cope with the constant movement. Probs what Kenny had in mind before the match, giving Suarez a rest plus knowing he would have an impact, especially after seeing the fitness levels at the sunderland game.

Think with Song and Geveninho back in the team you should get into the Champs league, but CB is a must now.

I agree with SoF, I felt we were the better side for most of the game, Arsenal were pretty good on the counter, but I was pretty happy with how our defence managed to cope with it.

And it seems we've finally managed to get around one of our main problems for years; depth. To have the team we had, then be able to bring on Suarez and Raul is very encouraging, as well as the fact we still have players like Gerrard and Johnson to come back from injury.

I do think we may have to sign a new striker next summer though, I would be slightly worried if one of Carroll or Suarez got a major injury.

Spurs should really be tryind to give Bale the ball as much as they can so he can have a go at Smalling who is really a CB not a RB. Doesn't look to be happening though Yahoo

Utd 3 Spurs 0

The Utd youngsters were excellent last night. Smalling though not a RB kept the "gale force" very quiet indeed and Jones, Welbeck et al did the business. Spurs got exactly what they deserved for their lack of ambition although it wouldn't really have mattered that much as they youngsters were on fire especially in the second half.

They will need a rest as the season goes on but for now it is a joy to see them play.
