    It was a 50/50 decision IMO he may have been right to go or not and as you say Son took it well.

    Ball first so it was a fair challenge.

    I thought it was a foul on KWP in this day and age.

    Would that not be considered excessive force?

    Much better balance today, Che has been very good too.

    No. One footed and from the side. And won the ball.

    Che has a lovely turn on him.

    Not sure Kane’s challenge was a foul, but the ref has certainly been more generous with his cards to Saints. Even Jenas thought so.

    Good first half and fair scoreline really. Hugely impressed with Djenepo and especially Adams. Bit worried about the yellow card tally. Can we replace Romeu with Hojbjerg in the second half as clearly he’s not playin for Spurs...

    When you consider how often a free kick is given when the “following leg” makes contact it could have been given as a free kick just because of that.

    Don’t know why people are picking on McCarthy for their goal. Tbf you could say the two in the middle were beaten too easily by Ndombele. In reality it was class from him, and quality from Son. If McCarthy had come out and Son beat him to it and rolled it into an empty net he’d be slated. Son is quick and it was a top quality finish, just as Ings goal was. Disappointing from our point of view because we’ve been the better side, but that’s football. If we continue to attack like we have in the first half we should score again.

    Would like to see whoever's passing drop the ball in front of the recipient a bit more often. We look a lot more explosive when they don't have to retrieve it.

    Autocorrect: Jenas - Jeans (and back to Jenas). My autocorrect: Kane - Arrogant cheat

    He’s not great but he is a lot better than the other options

    Rush Goalie? Jumpers for goalposts?

    They’ve taken off Ndombele? Thought he was their best player first half

    There comes a stage where you can’t keep calling Adams unlucky with his finishing as well
