Thoughts about the Spurs match

[Nick Bateman]

The scar on Jiminez's temple was shocking to see. He was nearly fatally injured by a deliberate and reckless headbutt by known Chelsea villan David Luiz, an act that should have seen him prosecuted in my opinion. No wonder Raul wears that protective headband and one hopes he recovers the physical presence he had before Luiz' act of violence against him.

Tom Cairney showed why he he is Fulham's "Glenn Hoddle" by creating the first goal. I would like to see TC feature more, certainly more than headless chicken DeCordova-Reid. Reid showed why he was named in the worst players in the Premier League by a newspaper last season with a shocking miss which would have seen the game not go to penalties. He also allowed Perisic to cross for Spurs' equalizer when filling in for an absent Tete.

Goliath Tottenham goalkeeper Fraser Forster displayed why goalies are the most stupid people on Earth - he dived the wrong way on every penalty, most of Fulham's going down the middle. Instead of this collossus of a man making himself bigger, he made himself virtually invisible, and thanks to him we now have a plum tie at home to Norwich.

Could it be Fulham's year?
