Spurs

Sanchez

Arsenal

Aubameyang

 

Taylor is calling this game so poorly. Letting so many physical tackles go uncalled and then calling other random fouls.

 

Sanchez should face retrospective action after kicking out at Koscielny

 

Torriera has small man syndrome.

 

Torreria going to miss the united game now. great. He wins the ball clearly but studs up into his leg. 2 points dropped here.

 

It's fitting it's Arsenal of all teams Spurs draw against.

There was very very little quality in that game.

 

What a ridiculous game. Fun to watch but Taylor made it sloppy. I hate that kind of reffing. Just creates chaos and inconsistency.

 

Yeah Rose should have been sent off.

 

He missed a ton of calls on both sides

 

VAR so needed, the 3 or 4 biggest calls in the game were all judged incorrectly

 

Haha I was just being a dick.

 

Well, I know you were just trying to get me fired up haha

I guess I’m just saying I hate it when a ref “let’s them play” but then calls random fouls here and there. I don’t know how players are supposed to know what’s allowed and what’s going to be called. The game was so sloppy and I think his calling of the game is the main reason why.

 

so true. quality of the overall game was so poor. was their a single quality passing move strung together the whole game?

 

Taylor also missed Vertonghen getting about a 5 yard head start when Auba takes the penalty, and then he's there to clear off the line. Guy is a shambles of a ref

Edit - for anyone interested

 

Agreed yeah. Xhaka should have been off after 12 minutes too. That kind of set the standard.

 

this Pochettino post game presser is great stuff.

 

What did he say?

 

says they were better then arsenal in all aspects of the game (XG was .9 for Spurs to 2.1 for Arsenal, not including the penalties), says Spurs have been on the receiving end of a number of bad calls this year (cites Xhaka today and Pogba), then refuses to comment on Kane being offside for the Rose challenge or Vertonghen being 4 yards into the box on the penalty. seems a little all over the place and frantic in his tone too, which I guess is to be expected with recent results

 

Who's this Scottish bloke on NBCSN? He's so anti United it's funny.

 

was literally about to say this commentator realllllly wants United to lose (and im obviously not a United fan)

 

Stunning goal by Southampton

 

He keeps going on about Redmond's dive as if Smalling broke his legs

 

for best buddies, Emery and Poch really going at each other in these post-game pressers. asked about Poch's quote, Emery says "VAR is coming for them"

 

Want Chong to get decent minutes in the second half. Sanchez, yet again, is doing fuck all. Might as well give those minutes to a young kid for experience.

 

Man City being held by a Bournemouth team that Arsenal ran riot on 3 days ago, wtf is that about
