Match Day Thread Tottenham Hotspur v Crystal Palace

Chadli replaced by Eriksen. Good to see the Dane back.

 

The trouble with the offside rule is that it is too subjective. And anything subjective allows the officials to favour the "favoured teams".

 

Now palace pushing us right back

 

1-0! Son!
Palace's best bit of the game and it results in us taking the lead.
Lovely break, good bit of fight to win the ball in the first place and a nice finish.

 

What a break

 

Keeper should probably do better though, looking at it again.
I'll take that all day long, though!

 

Spurs OS confirm another 1000 shirts sold in the past minute.

Get in there my Son!

It should be noted that that move began with Lamela's tenacity and perseverance - well played.

 

Delaney's lucky to get away with that.

 

Let's not stop doing what we have done now we've taken the lead...keep pressuring them

 

Thats what I thought

 

Lamela booked. Won the ball, but he shouldn't be making a tackle from behind like that.
The ref will always give the foul.

 

That's brilliant by Eriksen and it should be 2-0.
Bit greedy by Alli, as there were a number of players lining up for that.
Understandable to try it, though. He scored enough for MK Dons.

 

How was that a yellow?

And yet another great break

 

So impressed with lamela today...work rate and skill
Njie on for son

 

N'Jie coming on for Son? I thought Lamela would go off, to be honest.
Another very good show from the Korean. Great attitude, good skill and a real threat.

 

Good from njie there...really helped out the defence

 

Good take on the corner by Lloris.

 

Bamford on for Palace. Chelsea loanee. Did well at Boro last season.

 

Brilliant clearing up by Alli. He's been excellent today.
