Tottenham Vs Man City: Match Thread

Its not a if Walker was offside.

Walker was offside... no question about it. By the letter of the law he is offside and it should have been a freekick to City.
The linesman fucked up and we got lucky that (somehow) he didnt flag it.

I also disagree that they had possetion 'comfortably'. Keeper saves, ball bounces to a city player who passes the ball forward to noone.

Sorry chrissivad I spam rated you by accident should be gone now.
I agree Walker was offside and it should have been given but it wasn't and play moved on and then Dier scored a perfectly good goalwhich should have stood.
Honestly it was comfortable, there was nobody near him, our players were getting back and he had the entire right flank to run into his bad play was nothing to do with the offside decisiion it was just his bad play.
Personally I think the Harry Kane one is much more relevant.

Offsides are black and white decisions. Both Dier's and Kane's goals shouldn't have counted, but that also goes for De Bruyne's. What is also clear is that Dimichelis bringing down a player to halt an attack is a yellow card, so he should have gone too. So to me that says there were 4 controversial decisions in the match, both sides had two go against them. If the shoe was on the other foot everyone would be praising City's ability to win.

We beat Man City 4-1 and still the match thread has an ongoing argument.

I reckon we could win the league and this thread would merely be an argument about how the ribbons should be hung from the trophy.

Can't some of you ever just put your feet up and enjoy a win?!

Sadly it does not look like it. Spurs fans negertivity is ingrained. It is a dead weight around the club and its ambitions.

Nah. If that ever happened the complaints would just shift. Why wasn't 5-0 actually 6-0? Or yes, we won 8-1 but the defending was woeful. Errr, yeah OK we won the title but we lost two games….fair do's we won the treble but i'm not convinced by Poch or the best of the lot, winning away at Barca is one thing but can they do it on a cold evening in Stoke?

Or 'we only finished 4th ffs. Should easily have finished at least 3rd. Manager was shite. Glad he's gone.'

That kind of thing you mean

No doubt about we got a few lucky decisions, but on balance we would have won 2 0 if all the goals were ruled correctly.

Ok, we are all on a high now but the ball and ref decisions won't be bouncing Spurs' way in every game. Like in the game vs Arsenal just a few days, I believe Spurs did well yet lost due to "wrong bonces" and Spurs fans were up in arms (not all) - particularly vs Vorm, Faizo and Poch!
Me, I prefer the "middle path" - maybe in a Buddhist way - and not be carried away too much with this win, nor be carried away in the opposite direction with a loss.

'Wrong bonce'

2 bad decisions for each team in my book. Even stevens.
