So spurs player Lo Celso stamps on azpilicueta, nothing given by the ref, goes to var, nothing given, stockley Park then admits 20 minutes later they got the review wrong and he should have been sent off.
These refs are losing credibility every single game

Now this is interesting. If indeed Liverpool did hack into the system, and they must have if there was a settlement, then they should be punished. Then there is the issue of illegally obtained evidence and whether the integrity of those has been maintained. How do UEFA prove there was no alterations of the emails and I believe that any judicial fairness says that they cannot rely on the emails as evidence.

https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football ... n-21554811

But fairness either way, seems to have no part in the way these organisations run there corrupt practices. Don't get me wrong I am not on Man City's side but the whole thing has a certain smell about it. I would love to examine the documents and the full judgment of UEFA, as to how they got to their decision and whether they gave City the opportunity to answer each allegation and then what City replied.

I did say to people last year that they would regret the day they adopted VAR into the game as the Australian experience was terrible. To be fair it has improved after a number of years.

So as I understand it Chelsea's game plan was leaked to Mourinho. Yet despite that, Spurs lost. Says a lot about Mourinho's inabilities. I hope he destroys Spurs structure and takes them to a level where they truly belong. Mid table has a nice ring about it.

So let us see if they now punish the player. If not it is straight out favouritism and someone needs to go.

I’m so glad he’s doing as expected. He was always going to give a bit of a bounce, and he will win them a few big backs to the walls games but the overall progress will be negative and the football will be dire. Jose can only work in an environment where he creates a ‘the world is against us’ style. I’m not sure so many top young modern players want to buy in to that. They prefer to play on the front foot and play progressive attacking football.

He should have a retrospective 3 game ban. The whole point of VAR was more correct decisions. If they admit they got it wrong then don’t hide behind some excuse about re-refereeing games. It’s what we’re already doing with var and it was what we did before var for acts of serious foul play.
With spurs 2 main strikers missing a 3 game ban for their creative attacking mid will hurt them. The 3 clubs who play them next should be demanding he’s banned. So should the rest of the league

It's absurd. It isn't that difficult to get these things right and build a fair system around it. Harry Maguire should be getting a three match ban also but nothing.

Rumours are inter Milan will come in with a big bid for Aubameyang in the summer if they sell their striker Martinez, with Barca looking at him.
For me this is the ideal scenario for us. A club with money to burn after a big sale, needing to make a statement and so go big for Aubameyang.

I don’t think we can afford any new deal for Aubameyang and we can’t afford to let him run his deal down so the best decision is to sell him to the highest bidder this summer

Stayed up and watched it through the night

Big mistake I’m *%^@*** knackered now.

He was brilliant actually and i quite like he admits he’s got issues, just an average bloke.

Also if he fights Joshua he’ll batter him too mark my words

Unfortunately, Aubameyang will also not want to stay around if we do not get ECL next season. He does not have a lot of playing years left, However, he might also want to run down his contract in hope of an offer from a team better placed to win the ECL. We need the funds to land a very strong midfielder. And if it is Aubameyang we need to let go, I agree we should do it.

Kolasinac in, Saka on the bench, Eddie starts again, Lacazette on the bench, Pépé starts, no sign of Martinelli (injury?).

Bollo. Not a great start.

So much for our run of clean sheets. Defence with a huge hole.

Yes, I was hoping for a VAR reprieve but sadly not to be.

Fair warning that if we commit too many up front they can hit us on the break - two decent opportunities for them, could have been two.

Kolasinac not looking at all good (being replaced by Saka). Could be serious

The offside defensive line was a shambles but the more I watch it I just can’t believe that it wasn’t ruled out. His boot is higher than Luiz head and Luiz is going for the header and only a few inches from his boot. Can’t believe var didn’t intervene either. I think that gets ruled out far more often than not.
Put it this way, if the ball went over the bar from the overhead kick I guarantee there is a free kick.

Once again we lose a player to injury during a game, another defender as well. I’d love to see the stats for it because I’d wager we have far more than other teams.

The early goal has made things very difficult. Everton well organised behind the ball with quick runners to hit on the counter.

My over riding frustration with officials is there is no consistency and far too often we seem to be the ones that get the rough end, or the ‘special’ decision/rule that is never enforced for anyone else.
Aubameyang straight red and just in the next month we see Sterling, Maguire and Lo Celso all get away with straight reds.
I see a couple of fouls Pépé hasn’t been given in the box this season and look at the consistent penalties salah, Kane, son get for making the most of any contact.
Our players get booked for dissent pretty quickly but Vardy and others can swear in the refs face when they don’t get a decision they like.
That overhead kick today is clearly dangerous play considering how close Luiz head is to the ball/boot

All so incredibly frustrating

Yay!!!! Great through ball from Luiz for Aubameyang

So now he’s set up two goals, one for them and one for us.

He’s the best young player we’ve had since Cole. He’s so good he could play in several positions. He plays with 100% confidence and fears nobody at all. He’s been nothing short of sensational this season, if we don’t sort it several clubs could offer silly money as players like him don’t grow on trees
