**** OMT Tottenham Hotspur v Notts Forest ****

[ShipOfTheseus]

Lots to like there. Even if it was against a pub team whose best defender was Serge Aurier, we looked like we cared and as if the players had met and trained with each other beforehand. Which is a huge step forward after the last couple of weeks.

Great cross from Porro

Yeah lots of spin for Harry to take advantage of

Kane with 20 league goals this season. He's a bloody machine, isn't he?! We're so lucky to have him.

 

[metalgear]

Porro with 40 yards of space in front of him passing backwards. Hernandez on Wednesday constantly took the ball and carried it forwards

We've seen that with Sess, royal... Probably Conte.

Incredible header and definitely helped by the style of the ball in.

My stream just advised he's got 8 headed goals this season, which puts him level with Duncan Ferguson in terms of records...

All they need to do is widen the line - eg, the with of a ball for instance - to allow for the camera frame rate / timing of ball release and give a “grace” margin of super-tight decisions like these.

No advantage is gained by the attacker being one inch ahead, if that.

Nottingham Forest have not offered anything but this is much better from us. We should be leading 3-0 as the 'offside' wasn't clear and obvious error. Either way, 2-0 up and playing very well and Kane on for a hat trick.

Offsides are either on or off.
Clear and obvious doesn't come into it

 

[AjaxDeSuperYids]

What happened to thicker lines for offsides.

Guess they scrapped that when they realised they couldn’t disallow as many goals as they loved to do before.

 

[metalgear]

Too many hopeful long balls.

That bothers me a lot. We lose too much possession, maybe Conte needs players who can make these passes for his game plan to work

But isn’t VAR only to be used for clear and obvious errors? And it wasn’t offside anyway.

 

[Kandi1977]

Why the fudge did we not see this urgency and will to attack on Wednesday?

 

[Chrissivad]

Would love to see us come out second half and start passing the ball about a bit quicker.

We showed it at times in the first half with some one touch passing as well.

Helps to beat the press as well.

Speed of passing is key but it’s when and where to do it
That’s the key to any conte team

Underarm for defender but elbow and shoulder for attacker? Look legit from VAR

 

[alekaras]

Even if we go on an unbeaten streak to finish the season and make CL, I still want Conte out, because he'll just revert to form next season.

It's a joke isn't it

 

[Chrissivad]

No.
Var will always look at offsides like this as on or off down to the mm.

It's not a subjective call like fouls.

form of back to back CL qualification

 

[markysimmo]

Did J-Lingz even tough the ball in that 1st half ??

Every time I see cooper i have the notion to watch Kelly's heroes.
