[Easy]

To be fair, the way Mendy played i wouldn't be worried if he got a 20 match ban for that :)

Lol

Here’s a replay. Lamela with 3 snide jabs to the back of Mendy’s head. What a shithouse.

Lamela was a disgrace thought out the game Diving to win fouls and sinde attacks on City players Ref Friend had a final warning with the captain Kane after 30 mins yet he continued to get away with it, including two immediately after the warnings, how he didn't get booked I will never know

agreed, he was a big moaning babay but then committed the most niggling fouls himself, surprised him and mendy didn't get handbags out !

I've just watched the Ex-highlights on the OS. PL teams should not be required to play on pitches like that. Why was all the NFL shite not painted over in a shade of green? And as for Lamela at the end? I've seen it about six or seven times now but I've not seen a noticeable 'bobble' as he kicked it. From what the DT reported this morning I was expecting a foot high dink as he kicked it and ended up shinning it. Just a shit finish!

He didn't get booked 'cos our Friend didn't apply the LotG as he would with someone like Ferny. Peculiar guy Lamela - the only whingey Argie footballer there is! There's one or a dozen who have displayed the dark arts and there's a score to a gross of 'ard nuts like Zab and Otters, but Lamela is a right moaning mardarse!

i love our club and even when we were shite i wasn’t a moaner. However, Mendy appears to be a defensive liability, we’ll win the premier league with him, but in the latter stages of the champs league i reckon he will be targeted as the weak link. i think we should be on the look out for some real competition for him. i don’t think he’s capable of taking instructions onboard. Basically he a loose cannon and will be found out in the biggest games

Well it’s the Wembley groudsman that looks after the pitch I’d though spurs groudnman would got involved in helping! Apparently they couldn’t cut the grass till 2 hours after the nfl match an all they did was cut the grass forked it and white lined it! For me that’s a disgrace they had well over 25 hours to sort it! Fork it cut it spray it green twice then white line it at twice! Sure that could all be done within the games kick if! Or being it the Wembley groundsman he wasn’t arsed.

Clearly the pitch influenced play. It was wobbling and it slowed the speed of the ball down significantly.

Spurs played a physical line-up that looked a decent plan on this pitch but I thought we coped better. We created most chances and had more possession. Yes we had a lucky escape it’s that rat Lamela hopelessly hoofing it, but we already should’ve been out of sight.

Very big win this. In these chilly conditions, on a poor pitch and on a Monday night. Even with Walker and Mendy being poor and no KdB to start. Fernandinho, both Silva’s and our centre pairing the stand out players on the night.
