Mohamed Elneny has been involved with an absolutely hilarious encounter with Tarkowski inside the Arsenal box in the lead up to Burnley’s opener. He seems to strike Tarkowski in the neck before diving to the ground himself in a delayed manner.
Elneny launches himself onto ground, not grabbing any part of himself in pain yet the referees still bought and decided not to give the Arsenal player a red leaving Arsenal with 9 men, but decided to give the Egyptian a yellow card. Do you think the referee didn’t have the bottle to send another one of Arteta’s men off?
What is going on over in the Emirates that Arsenal now sit in 15th place just 5 points above the relegation zone? Will Mikel be able to keep his job as manager of the Gunners or is his honeymoon period coming to an end?

Should Arsenal be down to nine men? 🤔
Just before Burnley's opener, there was a VAR check as Elneny clashed with Tarkowski in the box…👀
