Think Pochettino thought this game out very well. Wenger was out marshalled today, but of course he'll cliam his top sriker was out injured.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
For years we have had to put up with whinger out manouvering us and making our managers look 2nd rate and altho I have been extremely critical of Poch this season today he really did put whinger to the sword.
Mason plays in midfield Fazios place at centre defence was taken by Dier

Okay ... as you well notice, Mason was back in the back line when needed. So he may have started in midfield as a technically, but Poch's instructions were for him to drop back FAST when needed.
we both agree Poch was master today.
Oh yes, Dier played his part too
Mason was simply outstanding, he would have got man of the match but for Kane and his two goals.
To be honest poor old Mason should have been yellowed in the first ten he was having a nightmare of a game fair play to him for managing to put things right and having a very good 2nd half of the game
Well, Kane got a yellow in the first half too.
And they wound up with more yellows than us.
grandspur, not going to argue with you tonight, but how the feck can you say Mason was having a nightmare of a game, he had a brilliant first half as well, he was all over the pitch. Didn`t you see the stats that BT put up on the screen at Half-time to show th amount of work he had put in all over the pitch?

I have already said no arguing.
Ars.e were put to the sword that is all that matters.

Its not all about running or yards, he gave away 3 or 4 free kicks at least one was worthy of a yellow card in the first 10 minutes and he gave the ball away dreadfully a couple of times in the first 10 when he was obviously trying to hard. Have a look at it again, the whole 90 minutes particularly the first 25 or so.
I wont question his workrate he always works damned hard but his first 20 or so minutes today he was having a mare it was mentioned by a few on the match thread.
Great 2nd half from the kid tho
Grandspur
Fair enough. I shall have a look at the whole 90 minutes again, but not tonight, I have had enough of footie for one day. I will sit down some time tomorrow after roast dinner and savour the event again.
Play us a song from back in the old days Grampy Sandy?
I'll play one then...Wow!
