Doesn't really mean much. Just means they're good at getting away with shithousery. Just like today, Sissoko should've been sent off, and Alli was lucky to stay on the pitch.
Are Spurs the dirtiest club in the league?

We're discussing the difference between a tackle and a stamp.
Ah ok so we can just ignore this then? Sorry.
You are right sorry, we should just ignore a two footed tackle that could have broken an ankle. It's not even worth mentioning, sorry again.A tackle that happens often and a stamp is the same thing?
Two footed? you blind lad? You just posted that video which showed andreas going with one foot, got the ball first then his man.... a tackle that happens often.
As long as it justifies a stamp eh?
I see. United were 2nd from bottom in the fair play table and Spurs 8th … due to poor match officials across the entire 72 games. And I suppose it's a similar explanation for the last 3 seasons.
Spurs fans really are a weird bunch at times. How the hell is that a two footed tackle?
He has a point.
I lost count the number of times we gave away stupid and needless free kicks 30 yards from goal last season because they all had some sort of mindset that nobody could possibly beat DDG from that distance.
And anyone with a decent memory who can count how many goals they cost us ???
I don't think that was that bad, no worse then some of the other tackles in the game but certainly not as bad as stamping on someone who is lying on the ground like a coward.
I didn't watch the game, was it that bad?
Andreas' studs were showing, but he hardly went through Kane who pulled up because he wasn't winning the ball. It's a yellow at worse, but more than happy to see some bite from United players against Spurs. Alli never disappoints, he's a dirty facker.
Where did I mention the stamp? If you want me to comment on the stamp it was a disgrace. If you want to see what I was actually pointing out was that it wasn't the only dangerous incident in the game as someone said.
One stamp and typical Dele alli tackle... rest were just tough tackles, nothing wrong with them.
They have been the biggest thugs in the league and the worst losers for years. No matter what these deluded spurs fans on here think.
And no matter what the Fair Play table has said for years either. I get it.
So...... where was this two footed tackle which could have broken kane's ankle? I only see Andreas going with one foot getting the ball first then his man.... which often happens..... You posted a video, so please point out that potential two footed ankle breaker?
Its only a 5 sec video, i am sure you can find it.
Agreed.
Typical Spurs fans. Their team spend 40 minutes leaving nasty tackles behind them and then when an opponent finally retaliates they're up on Twitter with the videos and indignation.
When your coach comes out after the match to apologise for your players scummy behaviour you lose any right to a high ground.

I didn't say anything was ok. I said Dele Alli doesn't belong in any conversation including Roy Keane and Vidic.
They were men who yes, occasionally stepped over the line inexcusably. Alli is an abnoxious little shit who thinks he's a god. All fur coat and no knickers I'm afraid, just like his club.
Fair play table means nothing if they don't get sent off or even booked, like today. Not a great example.
No high ground, any stamps are totally out of order.
You basically just said what you originally said but in a slightly different way.
Yes, as it stands. However if the managers make a big deal of it and it becomes a hot topic it's something that will really affect those two teams. People talk with such adulation about pressing teams and how hard they work but the reality is they try to recover the ball and then in most cases, when they can't, it's just niggling foul after niggling foul to stop the counter attack.
It’s not a two footed tackle
Your manager apologised for your dirty antics, in a fecking friendly
Dirtiest? No, but they are an extremely petulant side when things are not going their way. Plenty of uncalled tackles their players engage in especially that cnut Alli, look at the state of this post.
Whatboutery by Spurs fans is predictable but it won't be funny when one of theirs are on the receiving end. Its only a matter of time.

It was a horrific depiction of violence and evil intent.
How there weren't multiple arrests for assault at the final whistle is beyond me.
It's a bit rum. Spurs aren't a team I've ever associated with dirty play.Your manager apologised for your dirty antics, in a fecking friendly
The contact was minimal, Kane throws himself all over every chance he gets.
Ole did that in fairness, before the City game and Pep presented some pretentious moral outrage. If it starts to be highlighted on a regular basis, maybe refs would become wise to it (I think they are, but they might show a bit more backbone).
You obviously didn’t see that game when they bottled the title at Stamford Bridge. For some reason they go a bit under the radar but they are always doing it.
I don't know, but I'd say that Pereira wouldn't have done this, if your lot would have been properly punished beforehand. Pereira should have been sent off, but so should have been Alli and Sissoko.
No, I didn't see the entire game, just the highlights. They've had some hard players down the years (Mackay, Mullery, England) but I've never thought of them as a dirty side. I'll have to pay closer attention.
They currently have Alli and Dier who are plenty dirty. Along with the rest.
Didn't see the game but the tackle looks high and a bit reckless. He's lucky there, Pereira.
I agree about Alli but Dier is just clumsy. Tottenham's Phil Jones.
true
But Spurs were doing that from the first minute. Andreas was reacting in frustration. Anyway i like the way he was being as aggressive as Suprs
Thanks for the reply.
Yeah Dele Alli does have a nasty streak about him. I'm still a little surprised by all these comments though, before Poch, Spurs were always quite soft. Now I feel we play hard, but I don't think we're any dirtier than any other club.
Every club got those fans.
