GWT: PL Matchweek 26

[Havre]

They should try drawing the line at the point the defender could play the ball as well.

I have no problem with that call either way. And if in doubt I prefer linesmen/women allowing the play to go on.

Just a bit funny with managers selectively complaining. Klopp isn’t the worst, but what makes it extra funny with Klopp is how he always pretends not to complain, but still does it. A bit like people breaking up conversations and/or meetings by saying “I’m not going to disturb” for then to do actually that. Saying you won’t will not change the fact of what you are doing.

Credit to Liverpool for looking like a team again. I think Wijnaldum helped, but I also thought Bournemouth looked poor after a decent start. I guess they just aren’t deep enough to cover up even for a few injuries/problems.

 

[Cassano]

This is one of the the worst Arsenal takes on this board in some time...

Arsenal won last 4 games Ozil Ramsey Auba and Lacazette started. He isn't fielding the best lineup.

Spurs giving Oliver Skipp his 2nd PL start.

 

[East Coast Bias]

Iheanacho really never took the next step, huh.

I remember being told he was better than Rashford by a lot of people.

 

[Venkman]

Nice pass by Tielemans through to Barnes.

 

[spintheblackcircle]

Son tripped in the box and HE gets the yellow for diving.

 

[Jack Straw]

Son clearly tripped there.

 

[Havre]

He falls too easily, but only Oliver can give a yellow in a situation like that.

I personally don’t think it is a penalty, but in “modern football” those kind of touches usually lead to one. Yellow is a joke. Not that it means much.

 

[spintheblackcircle]

Sanchez with his first ever Spurs goal, nice. Hard worker, deserves it.

 

[Havre]

Yeah. Still prone to the odd mistake, but plays with a lot more confidence on the ball these days. 1-2 more years and I think he’ll be van Dijk lite.

 

[spintheblackcircle]

Winks, solid.

 

[Havre]

Winks missed a diagonal pass to Rose. Other than that he has been basically perfect. Breaking up plays. Recycling. Running passed players. Slowing the tempo when needed.

Sissoko and Skipp have been poor though. So struggling in midfield.

 

[spintheblackcircle]

f*** you Vardy. HAHAHA justice.

 

[Jack Straw]

Lloris!

 

[spintheblackcircle]

Eriksen!

 

[Jack Straw]

Erikson!

 

[East Coast Bias]

Letting a guy who just subbed on take the penalty seems like a weird move to make there.

Kind of a weak call on the penalty anyway. Maddison seemed to initiate contact and go down easy.

 

[spintheblackcircle]

Hugo de Gea

 

[Jack Straw]

Fortunately Leicester keep shooting right at Lloris

 

[Il Mediano]

Happy for Spurs. Love what that club is doing.

 

[spintheblackcircle]

Vardy could have 4

 

[spintheblackcircle]

Well done, Son.

 

[Jack Straw]

Sonny comes through again

 

[Venkman]

Vardy could have 4

And Barnes had 3 chances.

 

[KallioWeHardlyKnewYe]

Always happy with 3 pts, but god forbid Spurs make it easy for once.

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

Jesus Christ, and here I was thinking we had started really strongly
