My best team did almost exactly the opposite so you’ve made it feel personal. Keep my place warm.
I'm not exactly overloaded with Spurs so you can have it back later.

(think you needed 2pts to hold position last night)
Nor me (but I will be watching the early team news with interest). You can make yourself at home until the weekend. :lol:

If Spurs go out of the cup (however unlikely) is it worth getting rid?
Dunno mate. Depends on how many transfers left, balance of your side etc. It's a short term injury and he may be back for the weekend I just read. Sounds like he's a keeper to me :)
Surely he's a centre half

That was about the sixth time I've seen VAR used and they've got it wrong three times, and two of those were where there was nothing obviously wrong.

Absolutely ridiculous decision to give that penalty, whoever is looking at VAR tonight has changed my mind about the whole system - shocking.
.... and why did Son get a yellow...? This is a farce

So - was it a penalty or not? Has the original decision to give the penalty been overturned...? WTAF

Surely not? A foul before the kick was taken.

Looked like it should have either been a free kick outside the box when the offence took place, or a booking for a dive in the box when he finally went down!

I have to declare an interest as I have Son but this is an absolute farce. I have never ever seen that.

But the VAR decision was incompetent in the first place. The initial foul was outside the box and THAT is where the free kick should have been given.
