Yes he was but just as the ref let him off for a second yellow, Puncheon got let off hell of a lot but nothing is mentioned about the persistent fouling he was doing.
Even if Puncheon should have had a yellow overall in the game for persistent fouling, there's no way he should have been sent off at any point... and we both agree that Wanyama should have been. So we definitely got by far the better deal there if Moss wasn't handing out the correct bookings that he should have done: even if we want to add a couple more yellows to the rest of the Palace players for a couple of other niggly fouls, still none of them deserved to get a red tonight, but Wanyama did. The luck was in our favour on this occasion.

Don't get me wrong, I'm glad as all hell that Wanywama wasn't sent off, but I can't see any way that overall we didn't do better out of the ref's card/no-card decisions than they did.

Good win tonight! Felt like it was going to be 0-0 for most of second half until Eriksens magic! Thought Davies had a really good game. Sissoko did well on injury time winding the clock down!

I have to say this Wanyaman thing in Sky is absolute bollocks. Big Sam going that "Ref favored Tottenham" is uttter nonsense. I'm
Pretty sure Puncheon should have had atleast a yellow in the 1st half and possibly 2 with his array of fouls.

Complete bollocks that the ref favoured us! Where I was standing everyone around me & myself felt it was completely the other way round.

We are now 12 points ahead of last season's points total, based on the same opposition.

We are still 9 points ahead of our points total last season, after 33 matches.

Couple of points, awful tonight but fair play against 2nd best form side shows us in good light. Secondly Mr eriksen, was awful start of season unexplainable after having full summer off but fair play since December magnificent. Don't know where we can end up, this weekend is last chance saloon, get within a couple owt could happen, don't and we know we could fall away. Massively proud, just hope whatever we keep this crop of players.

Respect, he didn't play like he wanted that but fair play. Shame we couldn't have got him playing for us like now instead of country would have kept him, would be nice to have a player playing who loves club... which was never questioned only his ability...

Yes Sam, it was the extra day's rest that did it.... :/

Did Lloris even make a save? Even when they were better in the first half they never threatened. Love seeing Sam's fat face frowning, the fat frowny fuckface fannyfart.

:ROFLMAO:
