Match Day Thread Tottenham Hotspur v Bayer Leverkusen

The ball-boys keep changing the ball. Maybe thats got something to do with this display.

 

Clear penalty. Ref bottles it...!

 

That's got to be a penalty. Eriksen nearly put it away, anyway.
Much better start to this half.

 

Another nice touch and move from Sissoko, followed by a ****e ball. Needs to up his game dramatically.

 

So hard to say if that was a penalty or not. Normally the defender would go mental that Alli had dived if he hadn't touched him at all and he didn't do anything

 

I thought it was a pen to start off with, but as the commentator just said, it does look like Alli may have cleverly instigated the contact. So difficult to tell.

 

Jenas is politely tearing him a new one as we speak.

 

I wouldn't say it as a clear penalty, you could see why the ref didn't give it as it was minimal contact.

 

Needed that penalty though. Can't score without them.

 

85,512 attendance. Resetting our own record.

 

Felt sorry for Sissoko there. Good bit of work then Eriksen gives him a hospital pass over 10 yards!!

 

The Twattlesphere is adamant that we need to replace Davies with Rose ASAP

Really? They don't think that replacing Sissoko with Literally Anyone is more important?

 

Son seems to think that scoring a few goals early on in the season means that he can now put his feet up until May.

 

Or Eriksen with anyone..... I believe Joey Barton may be available....

 

Wtf is Walker doing in the corner there?!

 

So far it's a carbon copy of last season.

 

Ladies and gentlemen, I proudly present: Kyle Walker, circa 2013.

 

Shirt pull on Janssen, but the ref's not going to see that.

 

What a run by Walker. They looked terrified, all of a sudden.

 

Terrific from Walker, but where's Janssen?...
