Not including the absolute shafting we got for Kane's goal today. (Roy Keane was talking like Silva was running faster than a Cheetah hence he went down - absolute nonsense). Is that three or four perfectly fine goals he's had chalked off in the last month or so?
Besides that, that stat is truly pathetic. We showed them far, far too much respect today. I had no problem with the 4-4-2, but the choice of players was really disappointing.
Out of the starting eleven we had Tanganga, Dier, Sanchez, Davies, Doherty, Winks & Sessegnon. All of who I believe should be squad players at best.
Bending over for them game after game really is facking me off.

The Spurs ja606 board really does encapsulate the average fan. Over-reaction when they win. Over-reaction when they lose.
You’re not better than Chelsea. Add to that them being a bogey team, throw in the fact what Spurs fans were saying before the game.
There is no need to worry at all for Spurs considering where they are as a club. One of the better PL teams, but just not quite good enough. You are where you will always most likely to be, and it will take new owners to get you that one or two steps higher.
Spurs are a big club so I understand the frustration, but when competing for top four, losses will still happen. You have the euphoria of the result the other day, but always seem to remain one further result which ends up dragging you back down again.
Getting beat by Chelsea at SB isn’t any cause for concern. Most teams lose there. Spurs always seem to threaten being able to mount a challenge, but always seem to not quite make it. There is a reason for that.
As things stand, you have the best stadium, unbelievable training facilities, so some things are being done right, but these things are off the pitch. On the pitch it’s never gone quite right. That’s the final push you need. The current owners don’t seem able or willing to gamble in that respect, and it is in that area that fans want to see improvement the most.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I think you're missing the bigger picture. It's a fixture consistently each season that's lost. You see lesser teams give it more of a go when they go there.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
And also he is saying go for the final push. That would be like spending a billion just to catch up with Chelsea and City`s spend.
The bottom line is the financially doped clubs are getting further and further away, and nothing will happen until transfer and salary caps are introduced, that would at least level up the playing field a bit.
Even if Spurs say spend another £200 million, that won`t be enough to catch up with City and Chelsea, because they will go out and spend another £300 million each.

Ebdo I like you mate but was a blatant for for Kane’s “goal” today. Bigger question is why Kane done it. Stupid decision
----------------------------------------------------------------------
You can disagree but I'm not having that it was a blatant foul. It is at the very least debatable.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
"Debatable" is probs fair?
Depends on what team you support, I would have been pashed off with the call but it was a 50/50 call imo amyway
----------------------------------------------------------------------
That would 100 per cent not been ruled out had Chelsea, Liverpool, City or United scored it.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I disagree there but as I said it depends on what team you support?
Can understand why Spurs fans are pashed off though but as a neutral I could see why the ref gave it but that's obvs imo only
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The question ti answer is "Why did Kane push him?"
The only plausible answer is to gain some kind of advantage. Therefore it rests that the decision was correct to call it a foul.
If there was no advantage to be gained by Kane's action, then he wouldn't have done it in the first place.

People can say that there wasn't enough force to push him over but by putting his hand on Silvas back Kane gave the ref an excuse to disallow it.
Whether we like it or not a player is not supposed to put his hand on another players back and if it was the other way around we would all be demanding a free kick.
