Off the back of their dramatic UEFA Champions League tie at Inter Milan, Tottenham Hotspur played out a 1-1 draw with Everton at White Hart Lane. West Bromwich Albion continue to operate in the heady heights of the table following their fourth top-flight three-point haul of the season. The Baggies rose to see off Fulham, although the victory came in controversial circumstances.

As a Gunners fan it pains me to say it but the red card was a terrible call. Can't argue with the result though!

I could not disagree more. The defender was the last man and he removed the attacked from a goal-scoring opportunity. I thought the referee got it spot on. How could it be a terrible call?
