Player Rodrigo Bentancur

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports




Bent defending it because he’s a gooner and Cash is a gooner as well.

Everyone in the world knows what Cash intent is there, especially because it was straight after VAR took off their goal.

So fucking done with this corrupt shit cunt of a league.

Every single club that isn’t Sky legacy or oil money needs to start taking their players out
 
There's an obsession with challenges having to be showing studs to warrant a red card, often completely ignoring force/intent.
Cash's challenge is reckless and out of control and I genuinely believe he doesn't get a red purely because of this obsession with studs showing = red. It is bonkers
 
It was a frustrated attempt to take the player out. Watch his eyes, they aren’t even on his feet. If a referee can’t determine the intent and send him off he’s not fit to protect players and should be sacked.
you realise taking a player out doesn't automatically mean a red card right?

of course he took Bentancur out with no intention of playing the ball, anyone can see that.and I don't think anybody is arguing otherwise.
 
Yeah I got the jist of what you were saying, no need for clarity.

I’m disagreeing with you disagreeing with that point! There’s a lot of emotional people here, who no doubt feel anger about Benta’s injury and a whole host of poor decisions that have blighted us over the last few weeks.

The fact that this seems to have attracted more outrage than Nketiah‘s attempted amputation of Vicario shows people are letting the emotion of the injury impact their view of the tackle though.

I think that quite a few of us were calling for a Red for Nketiah
