It was a good tackle (Imo) and he does win the ball, but is slightly unlucky in what happened after. If he never caught Ramirez ankle, everyone would say it was a world class challenge, which it kind of was, he did really well.

Guess he doesn't want to break ranks and carry on the the sub standard levels of officiating

You can tell its January, when Adebayor is playing well. Great cross by Eriksen.
Great tackle. He's so unlucky that after he grazed the top of the ball with his studs he comes down on Ramirez' ankle.
That list is only going by what the refs given, most of Bales dives weren't even dives once you saw the replays let alone a booking.

I take it you disagree.I don't think it was malicious, that was my point, do you think it was? Do you think Brown was running back going "I am going to do him" ? He was unlucky with the way he landed on Ramirez ankle.
Dat turn 
Lovely skill.
You didn't say it wasn't malicious, you said it was a good tackle. I don't think it was malicious, but a good challenge it was not.
He wasn't unlucky to land on Ramirez' ankle. He didn't do it deliberately, but it was an entirely predictable consequence of the way he went in to the tackle.

That's a shocker. Studs up, in the air, from the side and with his whole weight behind the tackle.

Not bad... Not bad at all Spurs.
I would love to see a confident Chadli. I think he would be an excellent forward as opposed to winger. Eriksen is a class above everyone else, I love him. Ade is still a beast which is so so good for us.
Tim has got his tactics spot on. If we can keep the press this effective for the second half, we will have a real chance of getting all 3 points.

If all the injury rumours are true then Chelsea have a complete free pass today. We can barely field a back four.
Rafael/Vida are supposedly out.
Rio was out on the razz last night so he's out.
Evans missed the last game due to an injury.
Evra was pulled off and it was said he was struggling with his groin.
Fabio is suspended.
Jones has just come back from injury and there's questions if he's ready to return.

Yeah, I wasn't too clear, sorry about that!
I disagree with the last part though, I think 9/10 the attacker will fall over when the defender starts the tackle, it just looks like a freak occurance for me.
Anyway, leave it at that
Any update on Ramirez yet? Probably his season over.No defenders, no (great) strikers... good thing our midfield is our strong point.
Raf is in, BBC made a mistake by calling Fabios suspenion Rafael and then someone on Caf reported it as Raf being injured rather than Fabio suspended
