Drat. It was always going to be tough to get 3 with this squad today. Ah well
I mean i can’t wrap my ahead around how champagne that was, yet completely undercover at the same time.Some touch and finish that.
He got grabbed by his neck (clearly intentionally) at the exact moment he was trying to cut his momentum back. It's a foul and the refs completely missed it. The face claw on the way down is just the cherry on top. It's not like he was embellishing contact that didn't exist or that didn't change his ability to continue to play the ball.He did go down very theatrically there
Same reason Garnacho didn't get the call at the end of the half just now even tho his foot definitely got stepped on
I think for me it's that contact to that area (face/head/neck) lets players inflict a lot of pain or otherwise influence a play without much actual obvious force, so you almost have to embellish to get it called because otherwise it's too easy to miss at full speed. Much like when a player is slightly tripped or tugged when running at full speed.It was a foul. I'm suggesting it wasn't called because the ref probably thought the contact didn't warrant that sort of theatrical reaction
Spurs should put out a statement and stomp and pout like Arsenal. Ange should be ashamed to be in the country and all forms of other dramatic BS.He got grabbed by his neck (clearly intentionally) at the exact moment he was trying to cut his momentum back.

No doubt we weren't good enough today and didn't deserve a win. Hard to play out of the back as bad as Dier, Davies, and Royal are with the ball at their feet and it was especially amplified by Sarr trying to fill Maddison's creativity/link-up role (big shoes!). Second half was shambles from the start.Spurs should put out a statement and stomp and pout like Arsenal. Ange should be ashamed to be in the country and all forms of other dramatic BS.
But instead, Big Ange after Monday's chaos focused on how SPURS could've been better. He will do the same after this one. Class act.
