Eboue is some p****...what a petulant little kid he is, that jab on Rochemback was deplorable and we've all seen reds given for less (his raising of his hands to yer man..)...God, i hate Arsenal

Stuck in work all day so saw no football until MOTD2.

Eboue should have walked for the slap.

Spurs very lucky with 1st goal, no foul on Berbs+offside+handball. I'd be raging down other end.

Ireland's tackle was an absolute shocker, contrast with Keane's last week in a similar spot on the pitch...:mad:

Dunno - i actually don't think it was offside or handball. I though it hit chimbondas chest, and he was played onside by the guy closest to the goal-line who had been in the wall. Not sure about the free though, i don't remeber the tackle so won't comment on that.

Ah here you've got to be joking. It's blatantly obvious a goal should not have been given. Chimbonda was off as everyone stepped out as soon as the ball was rolled to Berbatov. And it did hit his arm.

No, i'm not joking, I definately think Chimbonda was played on by one of the two guys who had formed the initial wall, one of them was very slow to push out.

As for the handball, i'd have to watch it again, but i don't think it was.

It was offside. But it was really really tight, no ref / linesman would ever have spotted it...it was like those awful offside decisions in Pro Evo when your player's toe is in an offside position...

jank and cson, good to see a united front against childish play

MOTD2 did the computer analysis of positions, they said it was offside.

As for handball, looked 100% in real time maybe a little less after numerous replays...game is played in real time though...

Hey whether its one of our own Eboue, or Ronaldo, it doesn't matter to me. I don't like that type of ****e in the game. It ruins it. I struggle to watch La Liga sometimes because of it.
