Yes. But he seems to enjoy it if anything. No signs of getting upset so far.
Can't wait to play Liverpool now he will have good fun with that nutter Nunez.
Is the below intentional violent conduct from James too? He did grab the top of Son's shoulder, exactly where Cucurella's hair would have been had Son had hair that was 2 feet long.
Players grab and pull all the time during the course of a game. Players aren't carefully picking and choosing what they're grabbing and pulling on when things happen in split seconds.
The Romero incident happened in a split second and he wasn't even looking at Cucurella. It's not his fault that Cucurella's hair is so damn long that it falls below his collar area.

Ever since I first clapped eyes on Cucurella's ridiculous barnet I've been hoping someone would go full Comanche on it
The guy posted a reasoned description of Romero's game and provided examples of where he had made errors and where his game was below his normal standard.
Your response "you must have watched a different game" and a disagree.
I responded and said that you shouldn't dismiss him so lightly and emphasised some of his points.
Both of us substantiated our POV but your response to me was to attack me for being argumentative - when, fool that I am I thought I was having a discussion with an adult.
Your response was immature and frankly, tiresome - because to both TheSpursEst and I, showed no attempt to offer an opinion but a squawking response about how I couldn't tell you anything. At no time to either of us did you offer up a football related response, explaining your side of the "discussion."
This is why I rebuked you for your reply. You don't attack the post - you attack the poster, which is what leads to the breakdown of threads into a slanging match. You finished your last post by warning me how you were going to punish me if I had the cheek to stand up to you again.
Seriously, who the fuck do you think you are? At times you're amenable and charming, and others you are a spiteful and nasty poster who makes himself look fucking immature. We've met, you seemed perfectly pleasant, why not be that guy on here, instead of your self proclaimed "hammer of the board" - "nobody gets to disagree with me!" Persona.
I don't want a fight with you, or a slanging match. I come on here to talk about Spurs and chat with people who want to talk rationally and pleasantly about the club, players and results.
Look at your last paragraph in the quoted post, is that what you say to people to their faces? It's the kind of thing that made me use the term bratty.
I'm happy to dial this shit back and talk about football, if you want to join in.
:dierpochhug:
Ah. More aggressive over the top bravado filled posts by the unloved goat. Seriously mate, have a break. Can't believe the tirade you dropped on me the other day when I thought we had gotten on ok. Sick of your bullshit, sick of your unreasoned rants, sick of the threats of violence. It's a fucking football forum...grow up
Thanks for your responses
Sorry, but I've been watching football for a while, and I feel I have watched enough football to get a good impression of what type of players these guys we see, are.
It's my belief that Romero knew exactly what he was doing, and he did it as a "fuck you" to Cucurella, probably for the trampling he got from him earlier, but equally because it going to get under Cucurellas skin.
Job done all round and bonus of all of it, no fall out to Spurs. Looking forward the rematch
The thing is his arm barely moves cucurella is known for his theatrics and he definitely exaggerated the pull - was definitely a foul though but cucurella grabbed Romero first so if penalising Romero they would have to have given us a penalty for the earlier infringement-
We'll get the hump if he's suspended - ala Nunes
A ref is going to want to make a name for himself and send him off for something probably quite tame. Can see it coming a mile off. Thank goodness Mike Dean has retired because he definitely would.
Contrary to prior comments, the rule-book apparently doesn't specifically categorise hair-pulling as "violent conduct". Unless it's categorically defined as such then it's a matter of ref's discretion.
You know he was VAR on Sunday
..........In which case VAR may have seen it as a mere yellow card offense and thus nothing they can retrospectively act upon.

Oi there's nothing wrong with beautiful long curly hair mate as i can atest to. Although i am in my 50's. Must say getting fed up with the Cucurella jibes already!!
Agree not necessarily violent conduct but like shirt pulling id consider it a foul but they seem to be doing little to stop shirt pulling a la cucurella on Romero
Bin vote cast for your usual whiny off topic posting and bitching.
Wind your neck in
Now go cry somewhere else because honestly, nobody cares about you.

These threads generally get bogged down with a lot of whataboutry but he will get sent off soon enough if he repeats what he did last Sunday. There are bound to be a few refs watching him in future matches closely for anything .
