Enjoyed the Forest / West Ham game , no idea how West Ham didn’t score , bet Man Utd wish Henderson was between the sticks yesterday

That goal certainly led a charmed life

Though the Disallowed goal for the Antonio was a bit soft

On the penalty I wonder why they didn’t look at the tackle on Williams in the build up

And both managers on the touch line rousing their players,getting out information,Moyes demanding effort.
The same as the Spurs-Chelsea game both managers getting their message across.
Why though?according to you they can’t be heard.

You'll be loving Chelsea v Spurs with Conte giving it plenty then ?

I'm not averse to some sideline action from the manager during a game but on a list of importance of this to the team it's just above tracksuit v formal wear. The real work is done in training, pre match, half time. Sideline antics are for the crowds, relieves tension for the manager.

Am pleased we won, of course, but can't really argue if someone says a draw should have been the result. I think both disallowed goals were fair VAR decisions - as was the VAR award ofthe WHU penalty. Forest a bit scrappy at times but they defended well and gelled rather better as a team than they did last week. A long way to go - but a work in progress. Hopeful!!

It's great to see all your players working hard and playing as a team. I think you will do well

Think Henderson is a cracking keeper

Didn't get the pen .. why did he bother? Henderson had it

I love rice but I think his ego needs taking down a peg. He thinks he is prime Gerrard sometimes .. shouldn't be on pens for a start ..

It’s odd but I said why has Rice stepped up to take the penalty.

I thought Forest Did well, but there game plan today was hit quick long balls and to a great extent it worked. Ut when defending a 1 goal lead they need to try and keep the ball a bit and not give it away.

Spurs seem to have taken the decision not to mark the giant Chelsea centre back on corners. Maybe I'm out of touch but it seems like a bizarre strategy to me.

“Reece James, he’s one of our own”. Wow that’s original, wonder where the Chelsea fans learnt that ??

Chelsea looking superb against a very good Spurs side.

City Ground was absolutely rocking today. Incredible to experience. Our whole squad put a shift in today and although a draw would have been fair, I think we played solidly enough to sneak the win.

 

[Deleted member 18121]

I don't care for Chelsea or spurs particularly.... But Anthony Taylor is absolutely useless.

Every season I hope the standard of refereeing will get better. It doesn't.

oh please no, the Gerrard/Lampard build up would be too much.

 

[fundy]

i know i know, wouldnt be fair when Gerrard slips and the ref calls it a knockdown either

 

[IanM]

Spurs never in it. Grab a point.

Mad game.
