Far more forgivable than the Everton one where the linesman seemed to bend to pressure because he didn't raise his flag immediately

Oh really? Only saw one angle, which showed it to be very tight but he looked to be marginally offside.

Although aren't refs supposed to give the advantage to the striker as well?

Yep that was horrible to watch, seeing the linesman take an age to raise his flag under the pressure from the home side.

That one was an absolutely shocking decision

They're supposed to. When you think about what the offside rule must have been invented for, and compare it to how it's implemented these days, they've really lost their way. It's supposed to stop strikers from hatching and gaining an unfair advantage but nowadays for a linesman it's all about trying to catch the strikers out.

Two shocking decisions that would have us sitting in 7th!

When they changed the rule to allow players "inactive" in the build up be offside, it allowed strikers to gain an advantage again. Van Nistelrooy was an expert at standing 5 yards behind the defenders and United would attack down the wings and he would be in an onside position by the time the ball was crossed

Yes luck is right we've had none for at least two seasons now and this season doesn't look too different from last what with bar and post beating us again. However having said that we are the authors of our own misfortune to a large degree by not getting enough players into the box in support of Suarez. If we can't do it at home it's hard to see how we'll do it under pressure in White Heart Lane, and if we don't it's a pity because Spurs are shakey at the back. I feel that if we keep possession and press them high up we can nick a win here, they aren't playing to their potential since they dumped HR, so I'm going for a 1 - 2 here with a 433 and playing Johnson at LB with Enrique doing his new thing... if Wisdom is fit, and I'd start Sahin to bench Stevie for this one (though its a close call as neither are playing well).
The rest more or less pick themselves on recent form.
Regarding Asaidi, he is active enough without being all that effective, so I think he's not quite ready for the PL just yet, particularly against the likes of Spurs.
