I'm hoping for a 0-0 draw where Spurs have a ton of good chances but blow all of them

eta: Just remembered Arsenal can still technically finish above them. Crush them Chelsea please.

I think he went down on his own, but it doesn't mean there wasn't a foul.

looks like he went down easy, but I don't blame him for that...

It should have been a penalty, but I would have been ok with the ref giving a card to the ManU player for embellishing it.

I think that should happen more often. Too often players get a touch that should be a foul, but then they dive to force the ref to make a decision. Call the initial foul if there is one, but card the embellishment if there was one.

it was a foul that started outside the box and on replay shows drinkwater is still grabbing him once he is in the box

He made the most of it, but that doesn't mean it wasn't a foul/penalty.

IMO, i don't think you can give a card for diving if there is contact... way too subjective... no contact, sure..

until they started calling penalties when a player is fouled, but plays through it.. going down is going to be part of the game..

Yeah. We see players punished too often for staying on their feet. Pundits/People on Twitter praise them, but the referee fails to take action. If I'm Memphis, I'm going down 101/100 times there. Heck, I'd have thrown in a couple of barrel rolls, too.

It was a dumb challange by drinkwater

and basically what he was booked for before early. Grabbing a man after they beat him.

Just the worst. Want players to stop diving, don't force them to do it just to earn a penalty.

Yep. Game ended in the correct result.

Now let's move on and watch Sterling continue to screw up and not score goals.
