The heat maps tell you everything you need to know about how dominant a performance this was for Spurs, in possession and territory at least. Swansea, to be fair, defended well. Fernandez was superb and Fabianski made some world class saves. Spurs weren't great but created enough to win. The crossbar and an inspired performance from an underrated goalkeeper prevented that from happening. Not the first of this season and not the last I suspect.
Mike Dean has got to be one of the most controversial referees I've ever seen. How could on earth he called for a handball for Aurier ? It was a clear penalty for me but he called for a ridiculous handball.
@CirdomAkul- The fall looked theatrical in real time so I can understand why it wasn't given. It was like a Laurel and Hardy farce. The linesman should've seen that it wasn't a hand ball though, there was no way the ref could've. As for Mike Dean, he is one of the worst referees in the world, not just the EPL. Doesn't know the game, is an arrogant little weed and likes to put himself in the spotlight for any reason, even if it means he gets criticised. Referees need to be the polar opposite of all 3.

Spurs were on the verge of a new club record of netting in 30 consecutive home games. On reflection - of course it was going to end 0-0. :/
F-A-B-I-A-N-S-K-I
@Thad12 yeah he is great!
its about psychology ...tottenham couldnt win today after the big match they played against Dortmund

Swansea need a 90th minute momentum goal from abraham
swansea double chance...mark my word
Sissoko and Dier as CMs? thats swansea's only hope
so son left wing back??
@wdetac Apparently Davies was being rested.
Unless Tottenham have a UCL hangover they should win this match by at least a couple of goals: Tottenham 3-0 Swansea
Tottenham 0 - 1 swansea
I think Trippier will start here
@wdetac I think Aurier here and Trippier vs Barnsley
Spurs 4 - 0 Swansea
