    How has Ramsey come onto the pitch before Giroud? Mystery sub.

    Koscielny wins the ball against Kane. Free-kick to Spurs and Koscielny gets yellow carded.

    Truly incredible.

    Spurs have played far better in their last two visits to The Emirates and yet we still are struggling to beat them.

    We really haven't been at the races today. They're looking more likely to get the winner than we are.

    What a completely useless free-kick from Ozil. Really poor, especially when we're in the final 10 minutes. Can't afford to be as wasteful as that.

    Eriksen hits post from a free-kick that should never have been given. Cool.

    And Vertonghen pushes Koscielny over! <laugh>

    Booked? Nope. Of course not.

    I did call a 1-1 draw in all fairness.

    Can't complain with the result. We were the makers of our own downfall. Lucky to not lose either. Every time we have the impetus to go top of the table we rarely take it.

    A point is better than nothing but we just looked toothless upfront.

    Yup, knew it. 1-1. FT.

    ****ing crap result. Three successive home draws against that lot and this is the hardest to take because that was probably the worst they played in all of them, and we somehow managed to be just as bad.

    Feels like a loss to be honest.

    Poor performance compounded by tactical ineptness.

    Disappointed with the result. We let spurs off the hook today.

    I think it was a soft penalty to give, the player is already going down looking for it before contact gets made. After that Spurs probably looked a bit better going forward but good attacking subs to try and win the game. The game got very scrappy in the second half.

    Dissapointed that we haven't gone on to win the game. Sanchez didn't seem to be in it in the second half and Oxocube was absolutely **** when he came on. He is so frustrating, I'd rather we had Wilshere or Campbell available instead tbh, he really needs to up his game.

    Oh well.

    We didn't pass the ball well enough today. I also think the midfield just was'nt quite right. Neither Coquelin nor Xhaka quite knew who should be attacking and who defending.

    We are missing Cazorla for sure. His ability to make space and find a pass was much missed.

    I wouldn't go that far.. It was a scrappy NLD where Tottenham set up to defend and be physical hoping to strike on the break. Both sides nullified the other in most areas of the pitch.
