Match Thread Tottenham Hotspur v Everton - Team Prediction, Match Report & MotM Poll

[billybeeru]

At least we’ve had the annual “can Gomes do a job for us this season?” performance.

 

[vagablonde - kopite]

Can't knock that performance. Andre Gomes was fantastic.

Try telling that to the Onana and Gueye brigade on here.

Forgive me here lad, but the fact that multiple other ex professionals and officials are suggesting it’s not a foul would suggest that at LEAST it’s a 50/50 call. In these cases, why doesn’t the ref get the final decision? It’s just VAR again being billy big bollocks and taking away a all other interpretation

It needs taking out the game I don’t know why they ask the ref to look at decisions cause once he does it gets over turned. Game run fine with just the officials and yes some went against you but some also went for, VAR was meant to stop that and get the right decision but it doesn’t. Thing is footballs become almost a non contact sport now so any touch on a player and VAR is going to give it.

Anyone not genuinely annoyed after that today needs a good head-wobbling.

….fixed that for you, Matey

 

[kleew]

Hope you don't mean we need Onana? He offers nothing but an inflated ego.

He's still young and growing. Will be an asset in the future. The confidence may border on ego but that's good in sports. Give him some time.

Gray was better, at least he had a worldy in his locker

Jumes hasn't played enough for us to know if he has one.

 

[Drico]

You know we have improved a lot when we lose one of our toughest fixtures of the season and its one we feel we SHOULD have won.

No doubt the worriers will be rushing to the relegation thread because they derive some weird pleasure in unnecessary anguish.

We won’t be relegated if we avoid a major injury crisis. This manager, unlike the previous two, knows what he’s doing.

 

[Dharma]

Corruption won the day.

The ref and the lineman looking straight at it and wave play on. Should be the same as rugby on field decision if it’s not clear and obvious error by the ref. Stinks but who’s surprised

 

[Bombonera]

I imagine a lot of you do what I do and read the matchday forum for the fans of the team we are playing. On the Spurs forum I read their fans know they got lucky today and largely gave a fair amount of credit to Everton.

From 2-0 down I thought it was going to be one of those days we'd end up losing 3 or 4 but how wrong was that, totally battered spurs in the second half and deserved at least a draw.

 

[JohnRoss23]

Not at all bothered by today's performance. Annoyed with certain players like Patterson, Danjuma, and Harrison but effort certainly wasn't an issue. I'll give them that. I'm just annoyed with the league and their mafia tactics that happen every single week.

 

[ADT]

First time I've seen us go 2-0 down and not capitulate

 

[blueblood]

disappointing not to get an equaliser but even though we lost I think that’s still an indicator of progress from last year. We didn’t just roll over after going 2 down early in, substitutes made a big difference. Performance overall was good after a slow start. Dyche is getting some consistency out of our squad for the first time in a long time. Play like that every week and we’ll win more games than we lose.

 

[blueblood]

First time I've seen us go 2-0 down and not capitulate

Which is a big positive. We’ve had some right thrashings in recent seasons at Spurs. Some resilience and determination to drag ourselves back into the game today. Big plus for Dyche.
