The Premier League Thread

This is so open.

 

It’s great isn’t it. 2 teams looking to get the ball and attack at pace.

 

And most of us agree he was a bit of a tit as well

 

Not sure why they didn't get the ref to review the Caicedo tackle. The fact he wasn't even booked suggests the ref didn't see it.

 

Clear to see that the best way to get at spurs is quick transition football with players willing to run hard to get numbers forward quickly.
Basically the exact opposite of Russ Ball and his set up.

 

Yeah. **** VAR

 

Wasn't a red. Not enough force in the challenge. Should have been yellow for reckless challenge as it was high. Wasn't a potential leg breaker though.

 

VAR evening it up

 

Neither are red cards.

 

In your opinion.

 

Lavia looks fabulous. As we knew he would really.

 

Beautiful one touch passing through the lines. Just what we need!

 

Sideways angle on the Caicedo challenge clearly shows a lack of force required for a red card here. He scraps his studs on the shin pad but doesn't follow through on the shin. Not excessive force or endangering an opponent. Yellow card for reckless play.

 

Guarantee if I tried hard enough I could find a softer red where you've justified the decision lol.

Either way I think they should have told the ref to look as he clearly didn't see it at all or would have at least booked him.

 

Nah that’s not a red

 

Kulusevski looked far more of a red.

 

I do think Kulusevski's arm to the head on Lavia was a bit naughty. But again, not clear enough for VAR to give a red.

 

Nice to see big Fraser Forster back to his best

 

I suspect he won't be as busy next Sunday

 

They’ll probably make 11 changes to rest anyone any good
