Pep did say the fans would have fun. He just didn't mention that it would be the Arsenal fans

'the Tottenham fans deserved that, they were truly the difference today, we simply cannot compete with that kind of support' - Pep

Good Job Chickens

Just a very funny ending

Maddison would have a field day here.

City could be on a 10 season unbeaten streak playing against a Spurs side that had been relegated to League One and I'd still fancy Spurs to get a result tbh

I really don’t like City, but Spurs REALLY don’t like City

Wtf was that clearly denied 1-on-1 Grealish run?

How on earth did he blow the whistle as soon as the ball went into the air on that advantage, lmao. What a fucking match, had everything right down to the final whistle.

That's genuinely an insane result for spurs with that back line.

I fucking love you Tottenham Hotspur

So sloppy from City not to make this a big win, let Spurs in twice in the second half when if City had kept going like they had in the first they’d have been out of sight

12 points for city in their last 8 games, its not looking good blud

Least insane City x Spurs game

Red had a really good game until that one brain fade at the end

Each week we reach new and unprecedented levels of Barclays.

Horrible from the ref on the advantage there, but it’s fucking insane not a single player got a card for dissent there. Haaland is still going on about it.

Edit: Haaland did get one, but at least Grealish should’ve for going on about it to the assistant referee

The call at the end 😭😭

As a former ref, I always hated when I made a mistake like that advantage call. He can't stand by that decision. He has to own up it, surely?

Was it actually onside? I know there was no flag so it was an inexplicable decision but I thought it might have been slighty off according to VAR had City gone on to score

Funny seeing City players clamoring for a pen at the end. Even funnier when you see that refs called a pen against Manchester United a few weeks back for a similar “foul”.

For the record, I don’t think either is worthy of a penalty.

Every year I tuned out before the match was over because I thought surely Spurs wouldn't do it again this time and every year I am proven wrong.

GG spurs your team shows massive resilience but holy fuck that was a poor decision from the ref.

Cannot guarantee Jack would have capitalized there but being robbed from the clear opportunity is wild.

State of refereeing this season. Can tell every ref is bricking it each game.

Kulu is such a machine, never stops

I’ll take this result any day. We should have easily conceded 4-5 goals in the first half and a very lucky break on the awful call at the end.

Simon Hooper a fantastic performance. Man of the match for me imo

Fantastic game, and there's only going to be one talking point ffs.

Do you think City will be pissed in their next game?

Haaland couldn't score againts Emerson and Davies

Should've been a red for the ref for denying a goal scoring opportunity lol

A point for spurs should be considered a dub considering they’re playing fucking Emerson as a cb.

Of course we find our finishing boots against City lmao

People acting like Grealish would have scored from a 40 yard carry and 1v1 anyway

Being Pep’s bogey team is too funny

Have some respect for yourself ref, straight reds for the entire City team for arguing your brain dead decision to not play the advantage

Wanted spurs to drop points as a toon fan but it’s fantastic to see big ange shut the armchair critics up.

That referee is one of the best CBs I’ve seen this weekend cutting out the pass like that

3-3 and we had all our centre-backs unavailable, gotta love it.

Just an utterly shocking decision at the end but there’s no guarantee grealish scores anyway. Fair result imo

It’s maddening that’s as spurs fans we’ve watched dreadful, defensive, “pragmatic” football for three years, and then the media bitches and moans about us not playing that way anymore

SAF: Lads, it's Tottenham :p

Pep: Lads, it's Tottenham D:

lol looks like the refs aren't corrupt at all, they are just even shitter than we thought they were!

ManCheaty tasting their own medicine. 😭

Who's the best team City have beat this season? Brighton? Leipzig? Newcastle?

Feels like they're sleepwalking more than a little bit. Anfield, St. James' and White Hart Lane to visit in the second half of the season. And it feels like Arsenal will be a little bit more serious as title contenders this season.

Another amazing result for Ange. Look at the state of that team Spurs have put out. Brilliant stuff.

I feel PL is really just popular because of shocking refs

When did dissent stop being a card? Grealish screaming in an officials face, multiple hands on the ref and nothing. How do you have the spine to make that call but then get pushed around after lmao.

Pep was right, this was fun!

You’re telling me Villa can leap frog City if they win on Wednesday, Ps… Rodri is unavailable for that match.

Ref had a shocker there in the end. Nonetheless, you have to wonder what kind of mental block city have that they can't even win against a cb pairing of Davies and Royal.

Thank you topspur. Never said anything bad about you guys ever.
