As for the disallowed goal by Drenthe, my interpretation was that the forward player for Everton, who was in an offside position, was very active and was a distraction for our defense and keeper. The assistant ref called it rightly, in my (red-spectacled, it may yet be) view. In any case, the only fair result on yesterday's performance was an Arsenal win; any thing else will be an aberration. COYG! While still retaining the focus, of course ;-)
No 10, well, I did think he (whoever it was...still to see a replay) made a move towards our goal keeper. I have seen a goal disallowed because the keeper looked to have been influenced by the movement of a player in an offside position and the ball didn't touch him. Maybe, that ref made another bad decision. I think the fuss is uncalled for, anyway, especially as it won't change anything.
