I think Timber is probably a better all-around footballer than White, but I think our play is more dynamic with White. One of the things we've been missing with him out is the big crossfield switch, for example.

    Timber is just knackered. He has been playing at 60% of his ability lately.

    Just watched this finally. I love Gabriel. Happy with the result but not the performance.

    We look shit but if we get even one point closer to Liverpool, the league is well and truly on. Time for a jet off to Dubai.

      I'm sure the refs will be pushing to change the rules of VAR so decisions like this can be overturned in the future.....

      I can't believe how much of a big deal they are making about a possible wrong corner call. These things happen in nearly every game yet when it benefits us its a massive issue that needs to be fixed or its an awful shame or whatever. They gave us a corner not a penalty or a red card for Spurs.

        Qwiss They'll be a full investigation into this, Arsenal can't be allowed to get away with this. Sky Sports will probably run a special on this decision and how they are going to make sure it can't happen again.

          Whenever Arsenal is involved the producers will very, very often seize on any available controversy and spin it against us because it maximises engagement.

            Burnwinter what you mean one point?

            If we can beat Villa, sign 1/2 players this window, go to Dubai then I think things will look more promising.

                Sicario2 - Tier 1 I mean we're already close enough to challenge them, and if we get even one point closer that'll be fully apparent once more.

                  Timber's a great defender and has far better close control than Ben White but he doesn't have his pace, overlaps or crossing ability. Even with Saka playing ahead of him I haven't felt that Timber knows what to do in the final third beyond safe passes or cut backs that rarely beat the first man.

                    Thought I recognised a song played at half time on Wednesday. Turns out it was Slow Chemical by Finger Eleven, which used to be WWE walk on music for Kane. Little reminder for Spurs fans of how things used to be. Nice work DJ Selenki!

                    Thinking about it, they are the perfect example of how transformative a great striker can be.

                      Qwiss I couldn't place it at the time, I knew it was WWE adjacent - but whooooo?
