Yeah, that's a bit shite, VAR should review it and make them play again.

Imo Kane was offside & Raphinha onside.

Thought Kane was onside, but the call on the field was off and there wasn't enough on VAR to overturn it. Given our history with VAR I think we were due.

I was hoping for 52 points when some of our fans thought we were in a relegation battle on 35 points, looking good for a few more with three games to go :)

Roberts had less touches than Meslier which says a lot.

Counted 2 or 3 opportunities where a simple pass was needed and Roberts got the pass wrong
I dont think it did Peter, I thought there was an onfield injury in the first half which stopped play

Absolutely brilliant SG

I have been banging his drum as a CB all season, we are much better defensively with Pascal in our back four.

I said on a lot of occasions that I expected we'd end up with 55, so not far off

It reminded me of the one in the West Ham game.

In both cases the linesman flagged for it.

How could they ever see those margins?

I've said all season he's better than Cooper and I haven't relented. I'm actually glad Cooper was suspended now or Pascal would've been playing for the u23s.

Hard to feel sorry for them after the calls we've had against us all season, not forgetting they got a penalty outside the box in the return leg.

Agree. Don't feel a lot of sympathy for Spurs, in the end we deserved to win.

I suspect the linesman flagged it based more on how far Kane was behind the line once he had the ball at his feet than when the pass was made. It was a lovely finish too.
