Penalty there?

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

Martinez with another error, fortunate.

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

High line v High line was always going to be fun. Not sure how this is 0-0

 

[Johnny75]

This game is very open. Spurs looking good.

To think we were the best team against both of these is a lovely thought.

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

Villa really clinging on here.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

STRIKE

Spurs have deserved that

 

[Alan]

Lo Celso has a lot of quality for someone who rarely uses it.

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

About time.

Martinez isn't as good as he thinks he is, the prick.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Stay switched on lads, don't lose focus....ah

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

I missed the first few minutes, what happened with VAR early on?

Oh and why is this call taking so long, he looks clearly off?

 

[Squeak]

I hate Villa, I hate VAR... there is no way in the world this should be disallowed. The sooner they make it that an attacker has to have clear daylight between him and the defender the better.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

To me here you should just go on-field. Lino didn't flag and I don't think you can tell from the replays or the lines so give the goal.

Still though, it's Villa, fuck 'em.

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

I hate Villa, I hate VAR... there is no way in the world this should be disallowed.

Why? He's offside.

 

[Johnny75]

He's off, quite clearly off, mad that it took so long.

Sooner we automate this the better.

 

[Jack Regan]

Why? He's offside.

From the angle they didn't use (the opposite side of the ground) he looked level which probably complicated the issue.

 

[Alan]

It's technically correct (the best kind of correct), but it's still unbelievably harsh IMO.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Actually shouldn't run offside there, it's poor play by Watkins. No need to overrun the line.

Automation is a no-brainer as we know it works and it's far better (and quicker) to show to the fans once it's done its thing.

 

[Squeak]

Why? He's offside.

1. I don't trust the offside/onside technology.
2. The Neto at Anfield decision still rankles.
3. Fans come to games to see goals. In the stadium they are left clueless while fans on TV see the decision.
4. Attackers should be given more leeway by changing the rule to clear daylight.
5. It's Tottenham. I think I hate them more than the Vile.

 

[Tredman]

Scummy team doing scummy things.

 

[PuntsWolf]

Don’t get me started on “daylight” again. So stupid
