Payrise could also mean more people going it just for money and things could be the same as now. With VAR they have to be better, just that.

Berg = injured.
Berg - fat fraud
Let's not blame the referee, we were simply woeful and lack the decisive pass and saints nearly snatch a win had it not being for Sanchez.
Gil was the most likely scorer but the ball was given to Doherty instead who had a few sniff but that's about it creating anything, if there's anything it's the lack of a shooting ability from Hojberg and Winks which made it easier for saints to defend

Im not too hung up on the goalkeeper dropping the ball and it going in not being counted. It was a fluke and no one meant it.
But the Kane goal was a positive thing we did. Terrible VAR rules is the main reason why we didnt win. It would have definitely helped to create other good chances too though and some slightly better decisions from the manager could have helped too.
I must admit, I didn't see the game so I don't really have a leg to stand on concerning these particular incidents.
I think I'm probably reacting to all the conspiracy theories I keep reading on here that are fairly wearing over time.
Since the introduction of VAR, we've all seen spurious decisions given to all teams at one time or another and this conspiracy theory about anti Spurs is just plain paranoia.
What I would really love to see is one or two "top" officials interviewed by one of the better pundits and being asked to explain (with video) some of the more curious decisions made by them.
The only real answer is the abolition of VAR and getting back to the tef being solely responsible for decisions (and mistakes). When Harry scores a goal and his dick is offside, the FA needs to do something. So essentially I'm with you but it happens to everyone. Not just Spurs.
Conte got his subs wrong. Gil should have been first change as we did not need a RWB to play LWB against 10 men. The match was crying out for someone to take on the defenders and when Moura came on I thought that would happen but he was disappointing. Ndombele should also have come on as whilst I see his deficiencies against 10 men he could have had a free role and made the difference.
