If we bottle top four we fully deserve to be labeled ‘spursy’ for the decade to come. Nothing short of laughable...

Son was punched in the back which is what provoked him.

And the the perpetrator throws himself down holding his face to get Son sent off. That needs to be reviewed and reversed but we all know it won’t be.

I knew we’d end up conceding in injury time. It sums these players up. They thought the job was done and took their eyes off the ball/player.

He would have been an extra player that would have helped us.

And if we'd used him sparingly could have had a big impact on the second half of the season.

It was probably more criminal that we didn't at least use the money from his transfer to bring in a replacement.

But it's funny how since the day we sold him results have gone down the pan.

The way we've played went to shit when he stopped being part of the first eleven. Our style was too dependant on him and this season we paid the price.

Reflections:
Attitude right at start of game: several good chances created: Moura, Alli, Son. Those three looked sharp but not clinical in front of goal.
We got a bit lucky with the Dier 2nd yellow (not given) but it was a millimeters call so not a huge ref miss BUT bigger miss for the non-pen call
He did however miss the bad block on son plus the rabbit punch and stamp - should Son have reacted? No. Was the ref hopeless on that confrontation - yes he was
2nd half - Foyth RASH mistake
Played well
unlucky to end the way it did.

Reality - should have been out of sight after first 20 mins

Personally I feel we were unlucky that Dier didn't get sent off. If he had the Bournemouth players and fans wouldn't have been on the refs back. He was looking for a way to get them back onside. I don't think Son would have been sent off for that under normal circumstances maybe a yellow. Foyth wouldn't have been on in the second half and even with ten on the pitch we probably would have won.

Maybe we'll play a CF against Everton? Odd to have two on the bench and not play one of them.

Five losses in our last six with two tough games to come. Poch needs to see this team over the line, but if we go out against Ajax does anyone see a response against Everton?

As a fan, I can handle the disappointment of losing to Ajax in a CL SF. I don't think I can handle a loss or draw to Everton and being relegated to the Europa Cup.

As fans, unfortunately (or not) we have to handle anything....

To add insult to injury today, MK Scums got promoted from League Two and Macclesfield avoided relegation from League Two this afternoon. Boo-urns.

Will be happy when VAR comes in. Its not the be all and end all but it will give a degree of clarity to matters and support a group of referees who have been absolutely abysmal this season. It may have worked against us today with the penalty decisions Bournemouth could have had but I would have felt more comfortable with VAR than without it. With it we have a penalty at the end of the game regardless of any other decisions.

Pawsons refereeing was Sunday league level and I am being unkind to Sunday League refs. Not sure what has happened to the standard of refereering but they are presiding over multi-million pound decisions essentially as thats what is on offer for CL qualification. So to have those types of decisions in the hands of people who currently need to go to Specsavers is laughable.

VAR won't be a catch all or cure all but it will be at the very least a Guide dog or a white stick for the referees who seem otherwise blind.

Not really, we have horrendous injuries and heavy fatigue problems with key players.
If we loose top four it will just underline our total lack of financial clout when compared to our peers in the top six.
We have done very well to be where we are considering the chasm in wealth. COYS
