    We’ve been the better team and at the very least deserve to be level. They’re lucky to have 11 on the pitch as well.

    I’d like to see one of Son or Moura off if things don’t improve early doors second half. Either bring on Alli or Lamela to play behind Kane or push GLC up the pitch and bring on #ThatGuyTanguy

    This is such an important game and is eminently winnable. Get the job done lads.

    It's such a bad decision you wonder if it's corrupt. Correction TWO really bad decisions.

    I agree with your overall point, but you can blame them for missing an obvious elbow.
    I'm not sure how the ref gives the actual foul and then doesn't produce any kind of card.
    Norwood had just been booked, so the colour didn't even matter.

    Other than poor defending for the goal, we have been better the side in just about every area, scored what looked a good goal and they should be down to 10 men.

    If we keep up the intensity after the break then we can get something here - Subs and when Jose makes them could be vital.

    This is a roles reversed version of the game at WHL. The team dominating is the one losing.

    Jamie Redknapp speaking sense for once. What a time to be alive.

    I thought that too but didn't want to say it because football based on bad decisions is **** either way.

    If Moura is deemed to have handballed it after being fouled, then how can we have had an advantage?
    The rule is just awfully written, poorly implemented and overly vague.

    There used to be a phrase in the game

    ‘ball to hand or hand to ball’

    hows VAR overruling a common law that was ok without it

    So many flaws

    Because the ball hit Llorente's arm and we beat City, so they changed the rules.

    Let's not forget the blatant elbow to the neck from Norwood that is such an obvious attack it must actually be common assault.

    That disallowed goal could cost us European football for next season.
    This is a must win game folks.

    How many times have we won a header at the back and had it go straight to one of their players? Got to win the second ball.

    Bergwijn looks a bit weak.. keeps getting roughed off the ball.
