I wd be absolutely mental if that was given against Arsenal.
------
Like when Luiz got sent off against Wolves when the wolves player kicked him?
Seem to remember all the media saying that was a clear pen.

David was directly behind Willain Jose and there was definite contact. So how did Jose kick him? But back to today's incident I'm totally convinced it wasn't a penalty.
Davinson dives in, gets nowhere near the ball, and goes through Laca. The ball is 2 yards away, and Laca would have had a chance of getting it if Davinson hadn't gone through him.

We could argue all night but let's just agree to disagree. In my opinion that was never a penalty.

-------
Who initiated the contact?
Luiz was basically just standing their.
Jose went to kick the ball and HIS foot touched Luiz knee.
it was not a pk. very lucky 2 get that.

What about the more recent handball where Arsenal were denied a pen and ignored by VAR. Did you see the media/Pundits reacting like they did lacazette's pen? They were silent but crying now because their babies spurs where on the receiving end. They also refused to comment or replay Kane's deliberate elbow into Gabriel. Now imagine if that was Xhaka elbowing a spurs player, would they ignore it or scream for him to be sent off?

If that wasn't a penalty then 80% of Kane's won pens over the years in this fixture were not penalties
I’d find it hard to be aggrieved if I was a spurs fan regardless. Deserved nothing from the game
There is a preconceived bias in the media that Spurs are doing so much better than Arsenal when they are not. Both the North London clubs are middling. But Arsenal are a project whereas Spurs are the finished article. Commentators and analysts are not oblivious to the affect of that and this leads into their analysis.

Football analysis is basically just a combination of knee jerk reactions these days, get one good result and a team is on the up and moving in the right direction, a couple of bad results and it's a crisis

True. I suppose in a covid world with the lack of income from opening shops, these has-beens need to be hyperbolic to make any money. Poor podcasts and odd TV invitations is all they have.

So if a team is playing poorly they deserve a bad ref decision?
