VAR isn’t bent. :lol: :lol: :lol:


Romero should have got red card 10 minutes before he did but var done nothing :roll:

Reece James should have got red card for forearm smash like we seen Saturday night but somehow escaped too

Var is a shithouse system being run by complete fuckwits :cussing: :cussing: :cussing:
Udogie should have been off for awful off the ground 2 footer. james was never a card simply jumping, not at all like guimeares

Rat face blowing so much smoke up the scums hole here talking about about how composed they are and how they’re showing metal.

Composure that’s seen them completely implode in this game, have their manager booked and 2 players sent off :coffeespit:

They’re playing a suicidal high line that if the chavs had anything about them they’d have racked up 6 goals by now.

Composure my arse.
yep any team with anything about them would have been 2 goals up by half time and have hit 6 or more. chavs looked utterly clueless, leaderless and brainless, which they are, scum nothing at all special. yet the narrtaive bing how well they did, yet it was chavs wastefullness and var that allowed that narrative.

Sky punditry is worse than VAR.
Unbelievable isn’t it? Imagine the narrative if we imploded, had two sent off and lost 4-1. They’d go to fucking town on us.

Yet the scum are heroes to a man, unbelievable spirit, what character :roll:

It took the chavs until 2 minutes to go to realise that a simple ball down the flanks and they could fill their boots.

What a fucking simp Sturridge is :banghead:
yep chavs should have been 2 up halftime and then turned it in to a rout, any team with anything about them would have been, but their wastefullness/brainlessness meant they made hard work of it, nowt to do with scum putting up a fight.

🚨 Postecoglu : “We were hard done by today and let down by the officiating”.

“I’ve seen a lot complain about the officiating and I agree the standards need to be raised”.

“Decisions are not only incorrect but also take too long. No one knows what is going on”.
what decisions has he to moan about? the chavs were the ones fcked by var, romero first time, udogie 2 foot off ground lunge, disallowed goals

I agree on the Mudryk,Jackson descriptions, But Palmer instead of Havertz is a no brainer. (Far Cheaper also).

Right, I'm gonna have my tin hat on after this, but fuck it, here goes....

I hate the scum as much as anyone on here, but credit where it's due and they put up a hell of a fight last night. Nine men for most of the second half and until the chavs got the 3rd goal at the death, it looked more likely that Tottenham would equalise. It looked as though Dier had, but was very marginally offside. My main point is that Postecoglu has made a huge difference to that team and it shows you the influence a manager can have.

They were poor last season and I thought they'd be fucked once Kane walked, but they've made some good signings and the manager has also re-introduced players like Bissouma who have made a difference. I like both fullbacks and even though Udogie is a little raw and wild, he's only young and is going to be useful. As for Porro, I'd take him at our place tomorrow. When they bought Vicario, the keeper, I thought he'd be crap, but unfortunately I've been impressed. When I saw he'd come from Empoli, who are a complete nothing side and that he'd been bouncing around other no mark teams, then I expected what we're getting from Raya. I thought that if he were any good, then he'd have been snapped up by one of the Italian big boys, but looks like they've missed out. Let's hope he's having a purple patch and that the wheels will come off.

Bottom line, Postecoglu seems to be everything that Legohead isn't. He seems like a proper bloke who can inspire his players, unlike Arteta, who is a robotic buzz-word and jargon caricature...a Wenger clone. The scum are giving it 110% and playing for the manager and while I sincerely hope that you boys are right and it goes all spursy again, I have my doubts.

Anyway, tin hat on and I'll wait for the flak. :lol: :wink:

But they are still the scum. It will go spursy. It always does. :lol:

Remember when "elite" coach Poxychinos was being hailed as the best manager in the world? And Wenger was being slagged off everywhere especially on here? They were in the ascendancy apparently, every year was going to be "their year" and we were a busted flush. In that time period or thereabouts the scum won the grand total of zero trophies. We won four FA Cups. Their best period apparently and one of our worst and still it was four FA Cups to nothing.

Angie Hippopotamusadopolus will fail in the end. Its what the scum do. :lol: 8)
