Gallowgate End

Such a creepy post When it comes to ideas about how to get at someone, I’m pretty fucking good at it. Getting at the psychologically works fucking wonders.

Just another comparison but Brighton have spent £122million since getting promoted with a net spend of £110million. And have only recouped £12million from sales in 2 seasons

Did he actually say this?

Rumours are he had a big falling out with Murray that split the dressing room. Dunk and Duffy were apparently both seen disrespecting his intructions against Cardiff when losing too.

Spurs barely had a midfield for most of the game. Guardiola will be rightly criticised Agree he got the first leg wrong to change to a system he had never used before. People forget he made the same type of mistakes in the first leg against Liverpool last season which cost them going into the 2nd leg.

I don’t mind Pochettino my only issue is he has tried to fight against improving the correct ratio of decisions. Opposite to Guardiola who has been very much in favour of it and shown his support in trying to help improve the ratio of correct decisions

Funny how Pochettino said it has been an absolute disaster in Spain and every hates it there and we shouldn’t have in our Premier League Seeing that man benefit from it so much yesterday made me sick

Now that definitely isn’t a risky prediction

I felt the same way when the tech first came in, but not so sure now. When you have a top side against an also-ran, refs and video refs will still bottle it with tight calls. It's just so much easier to f*ck over the also-ran and it doesn't make headline news. If you're a ref under massive pressure, I think you're always going to be more lenient towards the top sides. Same goes for VAR. Whether it'll benefit us is hard to tell. We've already seen a lack of consistency with it but it's early days. It'll surely get more decisions right than refs without video do, but it's about which teams get those big calls. What makes me sceptical is that FIFA wanted this so much and they're hardly known for being above board or having the game's best interests at heart. I’m convinced next season we will get more penalties AND the opposition will get more Red cards with VAR than they currently do. Not exactly a risky prediction mind but

btw Seriously, they never showed the ref this angle once... Why? It's the clearest one. Surprise, surprise, resident refereeing expert on BT Peter Walton said it hit his knee I was thinking surely BT won’t ask him back again

Aye

The decision was made faster then I have seen goals ruled out before VAR. In the home game when Spurs scored there was the normal roar. They checked Son’s goal and when it was confirmed there was still the roar. I’m sick of shit decisions against us, if VAR has been about a few seasons ago when Aguero scored here, we’d have probably stayed up and who knows what Rafa could have been able to do building from that point rather than a Championship campaign? I just want the right decisions now. This

Can’t wait for it too

Where’s the first leg?

Like the look of Victor Camarasa he has contributed to 9 goals in 29 games this season Player with great energy and technique has a set piece on him too.

The man that was most against VAR and instructed his club to vote against VAR gets most rewarded by VAR

Yeah I'd have been tempted to put Sanchez on and try and do a back 3/5. Think City will win this 5-2 Rafa Benitez likes this. Would have been a better option tbf given that they’re still leading the tie. Thought the exact same thing Spurs are unbeaten in 5 games with 3 at the back in the Champions League too. Also worked very well for them in the away leg at Dortmund.

How does Trippier still get games in defence for Spurs

Rather we use Gayle as our leverage for Rondon given that they seem to really want to keep him Our interest in the likes of Cairney and Mooy are surely a thing of the past as they don’t have the skill set to play either of the 2 deep base positions in the 3-4-2-1 system we play now. I always thought both links were strange considering both are absolutely terrible when out of possession and arn’t Rafa type players.

He still wouldn’t reject going from Bournemouth to Newcastle United though
