I know, which is why I'd say a draw was a fair result.
You can't account for **** poor refereeing.

What happened? I assume Tan has embarrassed himself?

Purdy did you watch the same spurs game as me ? Paulhino missed 2 sitters , Dembele missed a decent chance and thats just off the top of my head

Not too sure after that match. Swansea looked to pass the ball a lot better than us in the second half (but I don't think many teams pass the ball better). Ref was shocking.
A fair result in the end, but we need to keep the ball a lot better against higher quality teams if we are to finish 4th+. Also somebody to fill in the no10 gap behind Soldado would be fantastic, he doesn't seem to be getting the service he needs atm.

What a win for Cardiff,did City not turn up?
No Kompany = can't defend for ****.
Just on my way back from the Spurs vs Swansea game. Not a great game with very few clear chances created. Still, I'm happy to see Spurs grind out results until the new players bed in.
Paulinho looks like a class act and Saldado is the number 9 that Spurs have been missing. Capoue looks brilliant defensively but he's not a great footballer. I expect he'll play understudy to Sandro eventually. Chadli looks distinctly average.
I've never been a fan of Townsend but we need a player like him in the team. He was easily our most positive player today. Very direct compared to our other players today. Still not convinced by Rose though. He has a tendency to dive in recklessly.
3rd place will do for the rest of the season.

Everyone should just slide in and injure Kompany so he's out for at least a month.
It scares me that City may realise it soon and replace him with someone who won't literally drop points for them.

What a difference a crowd can make to the team.
He did have howlers and the whole world declared him a flop and that he should be sold, he had only played a handful of games, have you forgotten how awful he is on crosses and not tough enough for the PL?
This, without him they cant defend for ****, what a win for Cardiff though...epic absolutely epic.
Was hoping Swansea would have at least got a point from the Spurs game but as i said 2 games in and they dont look very good at all sadly. No doubt they will come to the Emirates and give us a hiding
