Match Day Thread Tottenham Hotspur v Newcastle United

I can see why Alli was pissed about that tackle. Shouldn't react though

 

Thought it was a fair tackle to be honest. Hard, but fair.

 

We need to fix that before the Mousers visit in October...

 

Yeah it was fair, but it was one of those ones that is a bit of a "have some of that" tackle

 

First thing vaguely approaching a chance. Wide.

 

I don't like 4231, especially when we lack pace to break in the front 6. It's all a bit of a panic and we dither.

 

We're looking very uncomfortable on the break. Probably due to the fact that we're playing with 10 men.

 

Kane in the book? Not a lot of difference between that and Lascelle's tackle.

 

He won the ball FFS.

 

It's a typical opening game of the season from us. We always start slowly.
kane can have no arguments with a yellow card there despite getting the ball.

 

didn't look anything wrong with that to me, he went in from the side and got the ball.

 

When you do a scissor tackle like that you are being reckless and it was a yellow card

 

Lejeune (sp?) looks quite hurt. They won't want to use another sub.

 

Sissoko off at half time, one of Winks or Wanyama on and let's stop this 4 at the back nonsense please.

 

And he has gone off injured because of it

 

But like PNP says, what's the difference? Neither are a yellow for me. Just good hard tackles.

 

2nd sub for Newcastle. Mvemba on.

 

2 subs already used

 

I don't see how one's a yellow and the other isn't even a foul.

 

For me it's the type of tackle that can injure when you trap a players leg like that.
If it was the other way round and Kane was now going off injured we would be pissed off!
