Who was the miserable cunt who said it was naff/wouldn’t work/no thanks?
Looks pretty fine to me.

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports
Looks pretty fine to me.
Naff? No fucking way. I hope we do more of that kinda thing as we settle in...
How is the cunt on the video machine capable of fucking up though. If I was the video ref, I'd have picked on that and had the red card shown to the cunt. So would you. So would anyone else. How its missed is beyond ridiculous. There is nothing unclear or unobvious about it. The video machine did its job. The human using the video machine made an unthinkably stupid decision. What they need is better refs.
One huge huge moment tonight that i forgot but have been reminded about by the highlights. Eriksen made a sliding challenge. End of days.
Just got home - well worth the 6 hours of driving!
The two city guys who caught a lift, were totally blown away by our new gaff, and said we were so loud, they had to shout at each other to hear what they were saying. Hope it came across well on the telly.
Mature performance, loved it.
Always a pleasure,

Well he doesnt have to dive like a torpedo but then when he dives normal and his arms block the shot, its a penalty.
Just like you can tackle however you like in the box, but if your perfect technique tackle takes out the player instead of the ball, its a penalty.
Imagine this happens on the goal line. Defender slides in to block the shot but instead stops the shot with his hand. We arent going to say no goal and no penalty when a definite goal is stopped by a hand.
Big ups to the fans in the stands. Could hear you across the pond. 62,000 MOTM?
Were the plastic PARK LANE
The noise this is my 44th year at Tottenham and I'm back as a 14 year old kid again god bless you all

It was great to be part of this (think we were the bottom of the T) but would have loved to be in the Paxton tonight, just to be able to see it and photograph it. Great wallpaper!
Must go to sleep as I have to be up in the morning to go to work, but still buzzing . So looking forward to Saturday, that's what the new stadium has done to me!
Not 62,000 MOTM. Mrs. P M(rs) OTM
Thought that at the time haha
First time for everything!
Exactly. For me it was a penalty, it really is hard to have any complaints. If it had been the other way and gone against us we'd be absolutely livid, and rightly so.
What made the whole thing a sham obviously though was that rat Fernandinho being inexplicably allowed to get away with his elbow with not even a referral to VAR. Watching that UEFA doped buffoon on BT try and explain it away was absolutely comical.
I really like VAR and on the whole I think it does make the game fairer, but the fact it seems to still be so subjective is a big problem.
Seriously ? Could not disagree more. Never a penalty in a million years and please don't assume 'we' would be livid the other way round. I wouldn't even have raised an eyebrow if one of our shots had been blocked like that - much like the fans, players, and ref at the game.
Fucking justice it was saved. Plenty to complain about if that's the kind of shit which constitutes handball these days.

And thats where the problem is. You cant have buffoons doing VAR. Im 100% pro VAR, but if the videorefs arent going to see clear and obvious things like that fernandinho cunt , that any normal person would see on video, then there is no point in having it.
It was a penalty. Next leg, if Son takes a shot and at the goal line Fernandinho slides in to block and stops it with his arm (not deliberately of course, in the same position as Rose's was), no one is going to jump in and say its not a penalty and forget about the definite goal that was going to be scored. Because it would be penalty and this one was too.
