Spurs (A) | FA Cup | Post Match Thread

[Nellies left peg]

I thought Ortega showed why he is the second best keeper in the Premier League tonight. I have total confidence in him when he steps in for Eddie

 

[cleavers]

Some very good performances tonight from the boys.

Dias, best game for months, Walker excellent at both ends, Ortega did eveything he had too, Rodri good, Foden good, thought Bobb was good, Bernardo everywhere, Alvarez the epitomy of hard work, Kovacic, and Ake brilliant, Gvardiols's best game.

I'd be absolutely disgusted if I was spursy. 1 fucking shot at home !

The interviewer on ITV keeps going on about the “dubious” goal. Postecoglou just shut him up by admitting it was a fair goal. Respect to the man.

He knew City were by far the better team, I really do like Postecoglu

Klopp's jacked it in because he's a bit tired, spuds bottled it and stretch their trophy winless streak to 16 years..

Commentators gutted, Hoddle and Ardiles not laughing on the touchline now and City march on..

A most enjoyable start to the weekend..!

 

[stonie]

not read the full thread so won't know if already posted but is it me or has Pedro Poro become a first class orribal c*nt? great result, best team by some stretch

 

[chaddblue]

Did Maddison touch the ball?

KDB changed the game again. Before he came on we were getting deeper and deeper. Suddenly we had an outlet and started to dominate

 

[The blue phantom]

Spurs Manager not biting to the reporter on the goal. Came across decent & honest.

 

[deano ou812]

Just like they do before games with how can they get at City,at fulltime it’s what they should have done and no real praise for City ..

 

[SWPISHOME]

Yep I was really impressed. If he can keep up that level of performance we have one hell of a player.

It was said on here the last few weeks Kovacic is getting better and better in this team alongside Rodri. He's been excellent lately.

He's becoming a real vocal point in this City side.

 

[moomba]

Bizarre how people are trying to make out its a questionable call.

 

[mac]

Tony Daley wasn't a bad player, what's your point?

It wasn't towards you. It was the post that you responded to. I'm shit at Internet shite.

 

[Chi-town blues]

best friday since good friday

 

[glyntowen]

All you pessimists in the match thread; where are you now?

Still here, liked your post in the thread

Did you honestly not have a feeling of doubt about the goal being given?

Even as part of the goalkeepers union it is the type of goal not usually given and the competence of the officials in the match I did expect it to be disallowed

Possibly a tide change following the forest goal vs burnley


I thought we were OK tonight, Kovacic is so close to being there, just that last action is a split second too late


Some games we just need that bit more from alvarez, he has done well but will be good to get thanos back

 

[come-on-barney]

Newport In the next round.

 

[M12Blue]

Very good, next

 

[the old abbey]

Great result boys. Another monkey off our back. Much the better team, oh. And respect for postecoglu for the interview straight after, took it like a man not a mardarse.

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

The stat that we haven’t lost in the FA Cup outside of Wembley since Wigan in 2018 is crazy too.

Even then, we only lose in the semis because we have to rotate for the CL quarter finals.

 

[Tommy_Catons_Perm]

The one that got to me was the 6 minutes added in the first half.
Johnson went down with a made up head injury for at least 45 seconds . Ref blows at 51.06 ?
its fkin bizarre

I don't think it's bizarre. It works exactly as intended. It enables referees to manipulate results, somewhat covertly, or so they think. Stoppages in stoppage time, and the fact that it is supposed to be a minimum of added on time gives plenty of scope for manipulation.

 

[Moss Side's Finest]

Pep, was it a deserved win?

 

[SWPISHOME]

Just like they do before games with how can they get at City,at fulltime it’s what they should have done and no real praise for City ..

Constantly trying to make excuses about the "foul" that clearly wasn't a foul.

Not a word about City completely dominating the game from the first whsitle...

Instead they talk about how disappointed they are about how Tottenham turned up.
