English League Football ** spoilers ** [12th - 14th November 2010]

**** off Pav.

We really need to buy a goalscorer to cover for Defoe because Crouch, Keane and Pav just can't cut it.

 

[CliffyBiro]

So because there was contact it means he didn't play for it and make the contact himself?

Went to get something to eat and Spurs had a pen. Not another dive, surely?

As Spurs fans we've come to realise that whether looking for contact or not, contact is contact. Rooney being the most memorable culprit.

There's a difference between looking for a foul and diving. Bentley looked for the foul and the defender obliged so it's a penalty. If the defender hadn't Bentley keeps running. If a player dives he's going down regardless.

If a defender makes a tackle and the attacker chooses to not avoid it then fair enough. If the attack intentionally changes his run so that he makes contact with the defender then it's no different from diving.

Salgado pulled out of the tackle but Modric stepped into him to make the contact. It wasn't as bad as Pav's but it was a dive none the less.

If Bentley waited for the contact before going to ground I'd agree it's a penalty. He didn't though, he was already on his backside before Zenden touched him.

Modric was moving straight ahead, and Salgado's leg was outstretched.

I wonder what Man Utd will make of Hernandez's challenge today, it was identical to Cesc's, hopefully we'll see it from 5 angles and have Hansen castigating him.

 

[CliffyBiro]

Nice one Gomes.

I beg to differ.

 

[CliffyBiro]

Half time drug test for Blackburn to check squad for traces of Kryptonite. It's clearly affecting Super Pav.

 

[Weebull]

What an utterly atrocious dive.

[BaZ87]

Finally Spurs get their 2nd. Should have been out of sight by now.

2-0 spurs

Bale finally playing well in the EPL!

 

[Stag]

Super Pav, about time!

 

[CliffyBiro]

PAAAAAV!

 

[BaZ87]

This could get messy for Blackburn. Spurs look like scoring every time they go forward.
