Absolutely pathetic. What was wrong with deliberate handball?

At least Mourinho has his excuse, which is about all he has left in his arsenal. Week after week after week after week it's obvious we are going nowhere fast. How long until abort?

What the fuck did our incidents not taken a look by VAR but theirs would. The refs are so fucking dims and bunch of cowards. Is it really we didn't argue and hence not given a look.

Implement some conssitencies for fucking sake. Atrocious of a standard.

A competent team is 3, 4 or 5 goals up by that point. Only ourselves to blame. Pathetic from Jose to leave - just look at the difference with Ole who stayed and guided his team to an even later win. Anyway, on to the next one. COYS

Football was miles better off when it was just down to the refs, even if they did get shit wrong. All this micro-analysis is fucking up the sport.

It's not VAR for fuck sake, it's the pile of shite handball law.

once the law is made, its not VAR’s fault or the refs fault. it has to be enforced.

as much as we shout at the ref, once he’s seen the replay he has to give the pen as the rules are very clear. if he didn’t, he’d be in trouble.

If we'd scored 2 var would be nothing more than an annoyance

That logic really isn't great. We should have scored more but Newcastle had fuck all and still got a point due to a disgraceful decision by another spineless little man interpreting a nonsensical rule

The foul leading to that "Handball" play was an absolute joke, too.

Click to expand...

He basically passed the ball to one of our players then ran in a straight line into Hojbjerg. What's Hojbjerg meant to do - dive out of the way? Absolute fucking joke.

I cannot recall being this mad at a match in a long time. We've seen some abject performances in big moments, we've seen individual players absolutely let us down, but to see us lose 2 points on a handball for a guy who is jumping in the air with his back turned... unreal. Like, how?

Next game we should just start aiming for players hands in the box instead of the goal

Click to expand...

It is this. Just lump the ball into the box and just keep challenging. Eventually it will hit someone's hand.

I'm surprised there's been no mention of the awful challenge made by Hojberg leading to the free kick. Completely unnecessary and dumb. If this guy is meant to be our hard man in midfield, Lord help us.

All this rule does is promote hoofball. Chuck it up in the box and see if it hits a hand.

When's the last VAR decision that went for us? BS at Sheffield, Bournemouth, Saints last week and now here.

Spurs have themselves to blame for not taking their chances and for not buying a backup striker. It was so obvious Kane was knackered in the end too.

Yes we do and neither of those things have anything to do with the result.
