I actually thought the Sheffield Wednesday penalty should have stood. That Luiz look a like just lunged and was never going to win the ball and impeded the guy from shooting. He gets his leg in front of the guy shooting and he kicks his leg into the ball. Clearly impeded the shot for me, and touched the ball himself by sheer luck.
It was certainly clumsy ... weird how touching the ball gets taken into account in lunging tackles inside the box... Same with tackles from behind that take the player as well as the ball.
pochettino calls winning trophies just ego and all spurs need is top 4.and that's it.
he's just talked himself out of any big job imo.
just an other park two in front of back 4 merchant imo. it'll eventually end in tears at spurs, i reckon now theyll sack him rather than anyone comes in to poach him

Was strange that he said that but I disagree that they'll sack him. He's spent nothing and is still delivering top 4.
As if the Madrids and the mancs of this world are not interested in silverware. Just coming second will satisfy them, won’t it? Levi being who he is will not sack him as he is not the sort of chap who looks at a potential windfall of £40m and say “nah” . I must say that his selection today was bizarre. Eriksen not even on the bench.

He slid in won the ball and knocked it out for a corner? Good use of var to me... although how it was a drop ball to Chelsea I’m not sure... surely was a sheff wed corner?
when they are 5th or 6th levy is the type.of **** to turn round and shaft the guy despite not providing the actualy.funds due to massive stadium overspend.
the reality this year is spurs are good enough to.get 3rd as Utd will just about not catch them and be 4th.
Chelsea won't accept not winning anything nor not getting top 5 so sarri will be looking at europa win.
arsenal are just not good enough yet.
next year..... spurs repeat this attitude and eriksen will be gone and so with top 4.
Pochettino, who has yet to claim a trophy in his managerial career, admitted disappointment at this rather meek defeat but suggested trophies would not maintain Spurs’ development as a club. “We are going to create a debate that to win a trophy is going to help the club,” he said. “I don’t agree with that. That only builds your ego. In reality the most important thing is being consistently in the top four and playing in the Champions League. That is going to help the club to achieve the last step.
“The club is doing fantastically well. It’s so successful. In the last four or five years we’ve been fighting in different ways to achieve what the club needs, to be in the level of Chelsea, United, City, Arsenal or Liverpool. People wish we could win some trophies. But, being realistic, we are a team not built to win titles still.”
Pochettino should have Son Heung-min, back from the Asia Cup, available for Wednesday’s game against Watford at Wembley. “It’s true, this season has been tough,” he said.
“But to be a contender is always difficult for us. Now the realistic targets are trying to be in the top four, to try and be close to Manchester City and Liverpool and reduce the gap. Another is to try to beat Dortmund and be in the next round.
no they are not.
They are fulfilling fixtures in league not competing to win it.
As for CL... its knock out now. spurs are **** in knock out comps. spurs have not got past a first round knockout stage since 2013/14 I would say come back when you get past dortmund and tell me about spurs.
We are at least for once trying to win one comp.. the legaue... just trying but still
I would make a bold prediction of spurs winning all but 2 of thier remianing league fixtures but not being close to city by end. no pressure on them... nice and easy.
I see Diego was busy on the Spuds board yesterday
long may he continue to wum anyone but us.
