I thought that was just exceptionally naive from the defender. It wasn't one where the forward kicks the defender and falls over.
Two things say it all, Cech man of the match, could've been 6-0 without him and not a single tweet from Piers Morgan...
I was just having a butchers at the German Bundesliga results. In February 2016 Hoffenheim were 17th in the league when they appointed Julian Nagelsmann as manager and he saved them from relegation. He's only 29 years old. Today they qualified for the Champions League!!!
The game is changing now and watching Spurs yesterday underlined just how much difference a good coach makes to a team. Pochettino's tactical fluidity has made Spurs such a difficult team to play against and they made Arsenal look so one-dimensional, Wenger just doesn't have the ability to change the shape of his team during a game in the way Poch does. There are so many good new coaches coming into the game with newer ideas that are transforming the game and even experienced coaches like Mourinho are beginning to look like yesterday's men in comparison.

Good luck to Dulwich Hamlet in their Ryman Premier Play-Off Final at Bognor Regis this afternoon. 17 years ago I remember seeing this stick-insect on loan at Champion Hill...
Dulwich Hamlet lose to Bognor Regis Town in Ryman League Premier Division play-off final By Richard Cawley May 1, 2017 please log in to view this image Dulwich boss Gavin Rose Photo: Paul Edwards Dulwich Hamlet lost 2-1 at Bognor Regis Town in their Ryman League Premier Division play-off final – Ibrahim Kargbo’s late goal proving not enough to spark a full comeback at Nyewood Lane. The home side took the lead in the 21st minute through Jimmy Muit and went further in front just before the interval as Ollie Pearce netted. Kargbo reduced the deficit with 13 minutes of normal time remaining but Bognor, runners-up in the normal league campaign, held on for the victory which took them into the Vanarama National South next season.

As Fergie has said, you don't see all the hard work in training he puts in, it doesn't happen by accident...
just had the privilege of watching a brilliant young Ajax side beat Lyon 4-1. When you see some of the rubbish served up in this country it makes you want to weep
