Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta questioned a decision by match officials, saying Ivan Toney's equaliser for Brentford in their 1-1 Premier League draw on Saturday should have been ruled out for offside.
Arsenal's new signing Leandro Trossard scored his first goal for the league leaders but the north London club were leftThe equaliser cleared a lengthy VAR check but Arteta felt it should have been disallowed because Ethan Pinnock appeared to be offside while blocking Gabriel Magalhaes as a free-kick was delivered into the area for Toney to volley back across goal.
"I just looked back and it is offside, yes," Arteta told a news conference. "Have they explained why it wasn't allowed? No. It is frustrating but they will probably give an explanation later in the week. Today we haven't got one. "You have to apply certain principles in defending and you do that by sticking to the rules. Suddenly you change the rules and then you have to change your principles.
"So tell us before so then you don't hold the line that high. Because you're always going to have an advantage if you get blocked. You cannot block if you are offside."
