Just got back from the game. The stand out difference for me was the aggression. We were first to everything, wanted it more and we’re prepared to get hurt or to go through walls to get it

I was at the game and it seemed like the ref was heavily biased towards city. Maybe it was because I was in the stadium and we were on his back but it really looked like we weren’t getting any decisions and they were getting everything

They were given 11 fouls, we were given 8

Glorious. Just glorious. I'm still in the queue for the bloody Seven Sisters tube, but who cares. So much to be happy about today.

The little lad in the very bottom right hand corner absolutely makes this picture for me. So nice to put smiles on our young supporter's faces.
If his Dad is watching this then buy him a huge ice cream and tell him it's from Romario. :)

Delighted with the win, though doesn’t make me think selling Kane is a good idea. He will make us much better and have far better chance of making top 4. As soon as window ends and he knows he isn’t getting the move I am sure he will put his head down and do what he does best.

You want a guy to buy his son an ice cream and take credit for it? Ballsy. ;)

So far
So far under Nuno, he's been excellent. Maybe he has identified the prefect role for him
Exactly.

He isn't only a pace merchant that should stay out wide, he actually has very good close control and dribbling skills in close quarters.

As such, he's very good at receiving the ball even under heavy pressure, turn with it and bring it forward quickly. Him dropping deeper to do this, has definitely improved his game.

Then you definitely weren’t paying much attention.

Ref had a top game today, wasn’t handing out cards for fun, let play flow, and wasn’t buying into Grealish and Sterling falling all over the place.

Many refs last season would have booked Tanganga far earlier, allowing Grealish and Sterling to run riot.

Knocking a referee’s overall performance because you can identify one or two occasions where he made a call you didn’t like or missed something in active play is tiresome.

We have a difference in opinion, oh well.

An inspired, motivated and committed Harry Kane would be a most valuable addition but we must not make the mistake again of building the side around him and I don't think for one minute Nuno would do that. What we don't want is a frustrated, unhappy and despondent Harry disrupting what is obviously an extremely buoyant and positive thinking dressing room.

I honestly don’t think we win that with Kane. If he stays I’d like to se Nuno slowly transition him back into the team and make him know he has to work for it
