Spurs vs Burnley - Matchday

[SugarRay]

Alli is getting his arse keep kicked out there and Oliver is giving him nothing

He has kept going. That’s the most important thing.

This’ll become a fairly regular situation in his career

 

[gp13tot]

Havent heard so many boo monkeys since the late 80s and 'digging your scene'.

Typical norvern caper. Hope the early missed chances don't come back and bite us

 

[SugarRay]

BT are fucking shite.

Cover the football and stop making a fucking soap opera out of a sport, the fuck has happened to football?

They are every bit as dramatic as Sky these days.

Plenty more talking points tonight, the Sissoko chance, Kane not playing Dele or Son in etc

Alli is getting his arse keep kicked out there and Oliver is giving him nothing

Part of that is his reputation, but its infuriating to watch teams just tee up on him with no repercussions.

 

[DFF]

Alright can you find this mythical player that performs to their full every game?

Who said perform to their full. I’m talking about turning up for a start

 

[Bus-Conductor]

I am as keen as anyone to see KWP become a 1st team regular but IMO it does get a bit boring and tedious to see his name always being brought up every time Aurier commits mistakes.
There is no guarantee that KWP would play faultless every game - although he did have a very good game vs Toons.

KWP wouldn't play a faultless game every time, or even close, and it might be boring to keep referencing it, but it was a pretty big issue, we had one of the most promising young RB's in the country, possibly one of the best England has produced for a while, on the verge of establishing himself, he plays well, then we go and put another 25m player in his path, who also makes mistakes frequently. It's inevitable people will keep referencing it.

Happens to Messi week in, week out - he needs to take it as a compliment and not react.

Lets not get our spurs blinkers on. Definiely not a red but certainly a yellow. He was careless but not reckless

And the pen was a pen but dele did look like he was going down a fraction earlier before long touched him

He worked that pen but it certainly wasnt a dive

 

[Vulcan10]

Ben Davies where to begin Today with you mate

Looks a bit short of rythem after not playing for a couple of weeks.

 

[SugarRay]

Why has nobody made the comment that the "red incident" was 50-50? They have both gone in, in almost identical fashion except Alli is down first

I’d say it was 60-40 against Dele, but he had every right to challenge for it

If the defender gets up like, say, Davies did when Bardsley hacked him, and simply got on with the game, the yellow wouldn’t have come out. Obviously Dyche crying for the card just made matters worse

 

[nightgoat]

Such an crystal clear agenda, there's been Burnley challenges far worse with no booking at all .

Alli went in for a 50/50 , the Burnley player went in just as hard and fast , and there was minimal contact

They've decided Alli is a dirty player when he isn't, so they have to keep feeding the agenda. The last couple of seasons they've built him up, now they want to knock him down. It's pathetic. Last weekend there were multiple bad Man City tackles that were completely ignored because all the attention was on Alli.

 

[Gb160]

Nowhere near a red. He's not gone for the man, just trying to intercept the ball's path. He's open his legs wide to get as much space as possible for the block but it's not a "two-footed challenge". He's public enemy number 1, so he's a pretty easy target. A foul, but not a red. Yellow is fine. I thought the Mee challenge through the back of him was worse. Also, it was a penalty, player's gone across him and impeded his run, even if just slightly. Commentators/pundits shouldn't be having a go at him.

Sherwood reckons there could be retrospective ban for Alli for the dive...if it wasn't nearly Xmas I'd smash my telly.
Complete shitehawk that bloke.

 

[L-man]

Alli to score and boo the Burnley fans

 

[Vulcan10]

Decent half time chat from JJ & Gerrard.

COYS - see this home for a good start to the festive period.

He's a bitter, clueless twat. Wouldn't ever listen to a thing he says.

 

[Ionman34]

The main commentator is really pissing me off, keeps saying the alli yellow card could have been red. In no fucking way was that a red card, absolute bollocks.

Have they mentioned Mee’s tackle on Kane, just as bad with no card whatsoever.

 

[Gb160]

He was inside my telly, not much I could do.

I can confirm eriksen is on the pitch so he has turned up

 

[DiscoD1882]

Wasn’t a sending off. Looked worse in real
Time. Get a grip northern people. Hairston is a welsh twat. Move on. I’m drunk. Let’s win coys.

 

[DFF]

Thanks. I’d forgotten what he looked like these past two months.
