The Official Tottenham Hotspud thread [Vol 9]

It's funny how all the English media back the Dele Ali dive because he's one of their own. It was blatant and should have been a second yellow. There was literally no difference between this and the Lanzini one agaisnt Stoke last week, both players were expecting contact, started to fall before contact and then get the contact as they are halfway over. Lanzini was given a retrospective ban, I won't be holding my breath that England's sweetheart gets the same treatment.

If he was Spanish or Italian it'd be a dive. He's falling over before there is any contact, that's a dive in my book.
Every week every player is trying to con the ref, it happens. Shame but it's part of the game now. As Smarty said we don't get many penalties so we'll take it.

Did you got somebody to write this for you ? because you have no trouble seeing the keyboard.NRS said:
Then you have a harder job - playing at Wembley is like playing away from home, AND the other teams are up for it as it's Wembley and like a cup final. So that makes it harder I would have thought?

Will do so. Although we are currently trying to work out what advice to tell Klopp when we phone him for the weekly 'how to help fix the team' chat. So it might not be noticed in all the 'discussions'.Please wish the good people over there a merry christmas from me .

Which is all utterly irrelevant if Long hadn't stuck his leg out. He certainly wasn't trying to get the ball so one can only assume that he was trying to impede Alli or gain some other unfair advantage. A better defender wouldn't have made that challenge.Gassing Station | Football | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
