1-1 FT. Did well to avoid defeat after going down to 10 men early on in the half.
Another game without a win and we'll have three more without Sanchez now, too.
Atkinson ruined our chances in the first half, then we gave him an opportunity to kill them completely.
Wait for the media to ignore all that completely and focus on Dier at the end, though.

1-1. Another poor performance.

But Martin Atkinson. Seriously. Another Shocker. Personally I agree with the sending off of Sanchez, but the officiating for the rest of the game was utterly appalling. Many of their players on yellows could have gone, but he refused to pull out a second. It seemed like the crowd well and truly intimidated him.
The linesman asked one of their players whether he should give them a corner, FFS! <laugh>

I know! I couldn’t believe it when I saw that. He took ages to make a decision and when the Watford player moaned, he gave in to shut him up. Never a corner. And Doucoure nearly scored from it. Unbelievable.
 
All in all, I'll take the point..........when are we going to get some decent officiating? We won't get Sanchez sending off overruled and that's undesrtandable but Kane was fouled constantly. Twatkinson's a terrible official. I shall be glad when he retires.
 
5 points from 18 available. At this rate top 4 looks a stretch

If our rivals keep winning, you could well be right.
At least there can only be one winner between arsenal and united.
****ing bad times when you’re looking at the results of others and not your own.
 
Roll on the January window and if Real still want Alli then goodbye. Eriksen too to Barca if they want.

As I mentioned this morning on the transfer thread, our transfer window for incomings will start in 2 months time. 2 MONTHS.

I’m going into hibernation.

Lanzini and Barklay will do for me.

We should win without bad officiating by the ref, you're looking for excuses.

That won’t be enough IMO. Lanzini isn’t good enough and Barkley hasn’t played all season. We need players who are ready to go and are up to scratch. And to be honest, we need them on January 1st.
 
Thank you Spurs..for dishing up yet another pile of rubbish.. Great stuff..
I'm sure the paying fans are all looking forward to handing over their hard earned admission fee to watch more of this s**t next week.

It must be hand work to look so f**king clueless for the full 90 min of the game., so once again thank you.

Lamela hasn't played all season but he's back and MP is eyeing Lanzini.

So you now have the same attitude as I had after the Madrid match.

I never understand this view. Atkinson had a massive influence on the game.
They scored one goal and we should've had a foul in the lead up to it. Take away that one decision and they don't score.
That's ignoring the host of other mistakes that he made, including an early penalty to us and a wide variety of abuse on Kane.

We should ensure that the ref needn't be involved in bad decisions by SCORING. Saying we should have had a penalty or a player sent off is EXCUSE making. They hit the post and could claim a penalty before we scored but it didn't happen. Play well and score and balls to the ref.
