As soon as you saw Pieters kick Jimenez' foot, I thought pen.
And as with all of those decisions this weekend, if the opinion can be split then the referees decision stays. I thought Kane's was blatant... but some don't. VAR won't make a difference, and shouldn't make a difference, if opinion is split. Otherwise we end up with the farce of the 2018 WC when understandable refereeing decisions get changed after 5 minutes thinking about it, to a decision that less agree with.

Our tactics are working. People don't like it, and other teams hate it - because we win (or draw). It's nice pundits are appreciating the player's talents regardless though.

To be fair to Alan Shearer and even sometines Robbie Savage... they are quite alright regarding praise where its due to us.

Its only Chris Sutton who wont.
