I'd say it was close. Still don't understand why they gave them that one, but ruled Kane's goal offsideOut of interest, Was their third any where near offside?
This is the scandal of VAR offside calls. Even though both goals were on the same half of the pitch, the camera angles were different, making Kane's look a toenail offside, and making theirs look a foot onside.I'd say it was close. Still don't understand why they gave them that one, but ruled Kane's goal offside
Because an understanding of the rules and refereeing knowledge needed. He is basically do the job of the ref when the ref or linesmen when they miss something. I completely understand that. My argument is should be from an independent body. Not the same as the one the ref on the pitch is with. It's like having a game show competition with a independent adjudicator. Why can't this be similar.Thanks but WHY 2 refs when the one on the pitch only needs someone to draw the lines ?
So you would agree that he picked the wrong team today ?
BTW brilliant analysis, I think that today 2 defensive midfielders would have been the key.
At 2-1 there at least a chance of a draw. Both were a scandalThis is the scandal of VAR offside calls. Even though both goals were on the same half of the pitch, the camera angles were different, making Kane's look a toenail offside, and making theirs look a foot onside.
I don't have a problem with theirs being given, we were probably losing anyway. But Kane's not being given was probably the worst VAR offside call I've seen.
He's hopelessly unfit. Even the brief time he had yesterday he looked off it. Been sold a dud.Ndombolo should’ve started imo
There simply has to be a zone of a prescribed width wherein they stick with the call on the field.Not ashamed to admit that i shut the game off after Kane's goal ruled offside.
I literally went into work and did some CNC machine programming to take my mind off of how fucking angry I was.
Because they are fucking corrupt bias cuntsI'd say it was close. Still don't understand why they gave them that one, but ruled Kane's goal offside
I understand being annoyed with the decisions but what’s the corrupt bit? Are you seriously suggesting they’re getting bribes?Because they are fucking corrupt bias cunts
And that's exactly what we've become.Played like a collection of footballers with no team ethic or purpose.
Why can't the ref always decide on the sidelines,Because an understanding of the rules and refereeing knowledge needed. He is basically do the job of the ref when the ref or linesmen when they miss something. I completely understand that. My argument is should be from an independent body. Not the same as the one the ref on the pitch is with. It's like having a game show competition with a independent adjudicator. Why can't this be similar.
I don’t disagree that it’s a problem, but I’d challenge that it’s a bigger problem. If you play those 2 you have to have 3 in the midfield because they won’t do the job of protecting the full backs. We know that. But you need defenders to defend. Eric today has just made some unimaginably bad decisions.
I’ve got Eric down as having the chance to prevent all 3 goals and he fails to do so on each occasion.
We're getting lip from the most detested fans in the country now?Who do you think you are , Leeds United will never ever have an inferiority complex to Spurs.
Spurs are a traditional top 8 club that’s it, you haven’t won the league for 60 years ffs.
The outpouring of grief and entitlement on here is astounding.
Realist Spurs fans know that football is about ups and downs, you’ve always had tremendous support second to none, your club has been clever over the years with teams with the odd maverick a Gascoigne, Lineker, Berbatov, Klinsman, Ossie, these gave the fans hope and kept them returning but they didn’t expect to win the league every year.
Maybe your NFL Stadium has diluted the support as I’m shocked at the arrogance on this site.
To all proper Spurs I wish you nothing but luck, the atmosphere you created at the Lane has been magical, all the expectant bed wetters should fuck off and support Man City.
