bickster Posted September 24, 2013 Moderator Share Posted September 24, 2013 Looked a high foot for me as well but hard to say from the camera angle Also was Defoe offside for his goal ? The reply I saw has him miles off but I didn't see where and when he started his run Doesn't matter where he started his run, it matters where he was when the ball was kicked. Its like watching football with a woman, having to explain the offside rule Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dounavilla Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 I have accepted we will lose and the ref is shafting us BUT seeing Helienius having his shorts pulled down in slow mo was one the funniest things ive ever seen in a fotball match , someone really has to get a GIF of that !!

darrenm Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 **** refs. Every **** game. Even when Helenius literally has his shorts pulled down in the box, he doesn't give a penalty. Then the ball goes up the other end, Bacuna is stronger and Walker falls over, free kick to spurs. The resulting corner then brings a goal where the spurs player goes in with a high foot and it's fine. What game are they watching? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GREAT_BEARD_OF_ZEUS Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 We're ok without the ball i.e. we chase men down, hound the ball, tackle well etc. But with it we're a mess. We appear panicky and lacking quality. We just don't have the same movement to support each other when we're in posession. Ever player seems one touch away from losing it. El Ahmadi is a perfect example. He's got all the energy and tenacity in the world, but once he wins it, either his touch lets him down or he's got no options. Yet I think hes been the pick of our midfield. Bacuna and Sylla have looked really poor So do I and thats kind of my point. He's great at doing what he does, but he doesn't have the quality on the ball. Ideally he needs to lay it off once he's won it to someone who can keep possession and pick a pass. Most of the time there's nobody there for him lay it off to but when there is it's to players with even less quality than him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dodgyknees Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 WHAT THE FUDGE?! Bacuna knocked him off, fair game. Peno not given. Offside goal?? My love for football is dead, I am convinced fixing happens too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smetrov Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 So many players purchased that look light years away from being good enough. Unless that changes I only see more of the same. There not young and hungry there not good enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillaGoMarching Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 i often think, perhaps our players are just far too honest. Look we know Spurs have alot more quality than us, but what chance do we stand we refs like this one on show tonight. Done nothing to upset the big club.

Davkaus Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 I can't believe the number of absolutely ludicrous decisions given against us this season. It's like football referees were put on this planet to piss me off. Every single one we've had this season has been shit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There not young and hungry there not good enough. That's the trouble. While they all might come good, we've bought too many young prospects who aren't ready yet, and it shows. Tonev, Bacuna and Helenius all look miles below the required standard. You just can't have a team where there are so many players trying to get up to speed at once. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree, they need time but by the time we give them that we are battling relegation. Only one man to blame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
