Were there three? I only remember two , one blatant and miles off side the other off side but probably a bit more difficult to get right.
Walker miles off for their equaliser, Kane off for his goal by an inch and one of the centre halves well off and interfering with play for the goal they scored from the free kick.

Fair enough I'd forgotten one of them , we were rank in the second half from memory after playing pretty well in the first.
 
PEP: @VincentKompany is much better. He has a little problem. I don’t know if tomorrow he will be fit but hopefully in the next days he will be ready.

PEP: John Stones is much, much better. I think he’s at week four and the doctor said between four and six. One or two weeks, he will be ready.

As an aside - how does one repair a hamstring? - If it is torn can it be 'stitched' - if it is pulled , rest it for 6 weeks. Then you need to get back up to match fitness. So Stonesy could be February before he is back ?.
My knowledge of hamstrings is a bit fkaky . . . . . Lol

I think we'd been demoralised by the most corrupt officiating seen since Riley retired. Spurs quite literally got away with everything that day and got awarded everything too.

Most pulls are minor tears, nearly all tears heal without surgery, in the case of the muscle tearing away from the bone they won't stitch it, they'll use muscle from elsewhere in the body I think. I know for knee injuries the replacement tissue usually comes from your hamstring or arse.

I think it depends on whether the hamstring is torn and they grade it so the higher the number the worse it is,john said on sky last week that it looks like after the holidays he'll be back,we are doing ok so he won't be rushed
 
I thought Tottenham would be serious contenders for the title this season and with a still-young team, if it stays together, and a new stadium next year they might be more so. I fancy a repeat of the 5-2 or 4-1 tomorrow, though. Some of you older folks might remember Spurs themselves scoring lots of goals, back in the Blanchflower & Mackay days they beat Everton 10-4 and beat Crewe 13-2 in the Cup. One of my old football annuals says that going home the Crewe team left Euston from platform 13 and arrived at Crewe station at platform 2.

You sound like my era. Is you user name linked to Bobby Johstone ? - one of my early favourite players -
first player to score in consecutive finals - 1955 & 1956.

Hamstring tears in the muscle itself tend to heal themselves in anywhere between 3-6 weeks depending on severity.
Those where the tendon pulls off the pelvis need surgery to reattach the muscle to the bone. Fortunately these are rare but can be devastating.
 
Think tommorow is going to go down in history. Just a feeling but a December game in the dark under the floodlights.

Hope so! We owe this big time for a lot of defeats back the day. Horrid gobshite fans and never like them.

Behind the rags, scousers and then it’s these boys for me.

Come on city 8-2!

Seconded

There were three, but one was ours, iirc De Bruyne was just offside for our opening goal. Then the Walker one and Kane. I'm fairly sure Pellegrini complained like fuck that Spurs had two terrible decisions on goals. We were screwed in that game.
