The Last Word On Spurs returned as we suffered our first defeat in five Premier League games on Saturday afternoon as Leeds United edged us 1-0 at Elland Road. In what was a tight, tense and often fractious encounter, the game was settled 11 minutes from time as Noah Okafor stepped off the bench to clip home the only goal of the game.

It was an afternoon at Elland Road that will be remembered as much for the controversy surrounding the officials as it will be for the football itself. However, the biggest talking points from the contest centred around two major refereeing decisions that have dominated the headlines and sparked fierce debate.

On this episode of Last Word On Spurs, we take an in-depth look at both incidents and ask the questions that everyone has been discussing.

First up, the early penalty appeal involving Mateus Fernandes. In the fourth minute, Gabriel Gudmundsson's cross appeared to strike the Spurs midfielder's outstretched arm inside the penalty area. Leeds appealed furiously, but referee John Brooks and VAR ultimately decided against awarding a spot-kick, with the explanation being that the ball had struck the very top of Fernandes' arm, within the permitted shoulder area.

Then came the incident that has arguably caused even greater frustration among the Tottenham faithful. Jayden Bogle's challenge on Mathys Tel saw the Leeds defender catch the Spurs forward on the Achilles, leaving Tel in considerable discomfort. Following a lengthy VAR review, the decision was made not to send Bogle off, with the officials describing the challenge as reckless rather than serious foul play.

But was that really enough? Should Bogle have seen red? Why wasn't John Brooks sent to the pitchside monitor? And how do we reconcile this decision with other red-card incidents we've seen in the Premier League?

With Mathys Tel subsequently forced off injured, Tottenham's frustration was understandable, and the club's decision to submit a formal complaint to Professional Game Match Officials Limited (PGMOL) only adds further weight to the controversy.

We also discuss the wider performance, Tottenham's failure to make the most of their opportunities, Leeds' second-half improvement, Daniel Farke's tactical adjustments and Noah Okafor's decisive contribution.

Was the officiating the defining story of the afternoon? Did Spurs have legitimate grievances, or should the focus be on their own shortcomings? And where does this latest controversy leave the ongoing debate surrounding VAR and consistency in Premier League refereeing?

Two huge decisions. Plenty of questions. Lots of frustration.

As always, we get into the detail, debate the talking points and give you the Last Word On Spurs!

For the first time in 616 days, Spurs have won three consecutive Premier League games, while back-to-back home victories have arrived for the first time since the 2024/25 season.

Following statement wins over Coventry City and Chelsea, Roberto De Zerbi’s men have now made it three in a row with a 2-0 victory over Crystal Palace, courtesy of goals from Archie Gray and Jan Paul van Hecke.

On the latest episode of Last Word On Spurs, we delve deeper into the De Zerbi revolution and explore how the Italian is beginning to transform Tottenham’s identity, mentality and performances on the pitch.

Are we finally seeing a team with a clear tactical blueprint, renewed intensity and the belief to compete consistently? Is De Zerbi unlocking the potential of this squad, and could these results mark the beginning of a genuine turning point in North London?

But with years of frustration still fresh in the memory, are Spurs supporters right to get carried away, or is caution still required? What has changed under De Zerbi, how sustainable is this resurgence, and just how far can Tottenham go if this momentum continues?

Three wins in a row. Back-to-back home victories. A growing sense of optimism.

The question on every Spurs fan’s lips is simple: ARE TOTTENHAM REALLY AND TRULY BACK?

Join us as we dissect the performances, debate the transformation and ask whether the good times are finally returning to N17.

The Last Word On Spurs returned as after victories over Coventry City and Chelsea, we completed the sequence of league wins against teams beginning with ‘C’ after a goal in each half from Archie Gray and Jan Paul van Hecke saw us home against the Eagles at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

The visitors were reduced to 10 men just 13 minutes into the game after Jean-Philippe Mateta was given a straight red card for a foul on Micky van de Ven and we took full advantage, enjoying 80 per cent possession and having 34 shots, nine on target.

The good news continued on the night with more minutes under his belt for substitute Dejan Kulusevski following his lengthy injury lay-off, while there was also a Premier League debut for 18-year-old Academy product Luca Williams-Barnett.
