West Ham is playing better as a team without Payet. Instead of awkwardly forcing the ball into the middle of the field, they are moving it much more effectively.

Into the top half of the table! COYI!

Ugly four minutes for Lloris. Claudio Bravo down there at the other end feels his pain.

In a year full of dreadful reffing, that missed obvious penalty against Sterling might be the worst.

This is soccer's problem. Sterling should have fallen over. He shouldnt need to fall over for that to be a foul.

Really the reffing is abysmal this game. That was the most obvious, but I think you could find a dozen questionable decisions.

Girly nailed it, how will you ever get diving out of the game if the right call for Sterling there was to dive? It's been a great game with poor officiating, too bad.

Maybe sane in the 2nd and sterling in the first half shouldn't have dove in the box and the ref might believe them on actual fouls

Apparently it is. NBC feed and RSN feed using the same enunciation.

great game this. After Lloris' mistakes, 2-2 would be a really good result for Spurs.

Agreed, but the problem is that you have a bunch of players that dive all over the place and draw fouls and cards. I like Aguero, but he drew a yellow and a free kick after that play and literally nothing happened to him. Surely these athletes can all and run in real life without falling, but diving works so it continues.

Anyway, big point for Spurs. They didn't deserve it, and I thought they would win, but a point is a great result in light of how they played.

I've heard Spanish speakers give it the soft j and less a z sound

Not a big deal either way

The British commentators should just straight up call him Jesus. Dont use the Spanish pronunciation, just give it the ol' Northern England accent and call him Jesus.

That is true. Maybe they need two refs

Whatever it's pronounced, he had quite an instant impact on the game. Looks like he'll be a good fit with Aguero and De Bruyne.

I assume Sportsnet World Now is something akin to TSN Go? I hate the digital offerings these two stations have...You already have 5/6 channels and I just want it easy when I pay for these services.

Hes an excellent wide player, I dont know why they dont use him more often.

His pace on the wing causes tons of problems.
