Ref Watch: Should Callum Wilson's Newcastle opener at Tottenham ... (Sky Sports)

Plus: Did Arsenal striker Gabriel Jesus deserve a penalty at Southampton? Was VAR right to hand Man City a penalty for a foul on Bernardo Silva against ...

Sue Smith: I'm a bit torn, he does get the ball but he is caught the wrong side. I think the referee is right to give a goal. DERMOT SAYS: I think this is a penalty. It is untidy but it seems a little bit unfair to call it a foul because the Southampton defender does get the ball. People will say he does catch him, he plays for the ball, he is clumsy, but they are both playing for the ball. I don't think there is enough evidence for the referee to give a foul against Wilson. Paul Robinson: I think there are two moments where a penalty could be given. He grabs him and holds on and doesn't let go until he is on the floor. For me, that goalkeeper is no longer a goalkeeper. You can see how far the shirt is from the body. If that is the other way around, if Callum Wilson chests that around Hugo Lloris and Lloris puts his arm around him that's a foul in the other direction. And why the referee was right to penalise Scott McTominay for holding on to Armando Broja in Chelsea's draw with Man Utd

Tottenham anger behind the scenes at decision and Conte's ... (Football.London)

Here are our Tottenham Hotspur talking points after their 2-1 defeat against Newcastle United in the Premier League on Sunday.

That includes changes like bringing on Ben Davies and Matt Doherty late in the game, which saw Emerson Royal switching to the right of a back three. "Pierre, it was the same because Pierre played every game, he played every minute, and he was really tired. Our target now has to be to try on Wednesday to win the game because to go to the next round is a good opportunity for us. Now, after the game against United, he felt a lot of fatigue and then yesterday, he felt fatigued in his calf. "In this moment, we are playing massive games, and for example, there are players like Hojbjerg who has played every game, and at the end, there was an injury because he was tired. Lucas Moura started the season with this problem in his tendon, and now he's trying to recover a good physical condition. "The way out of this is to work hard, to reflect on those last couple of games and there are plenty of things to improve on and we'll be doing everything we can to make sure that come Wednesday that happens. It was nice to be back on the grass but I would have liked to have performed a bit better and helped the team to get that victory," Skipp told SpursPlay. It needs to deliver a solution if Spurs are to find extra creativity in their game and not be so reliant on a 22-year-old. "In the first half we started really well and we played really well. On the flanks, Sessegnon struggled to make an impact after a bright start, with just a 61.9% pass success rate, and was replaced by the equally ineffective Ivan Perisic. He set down his marker for the day with an early back pass that flew pass Hugo Lloris and inches wide of Spurs' goal.

Newcastle United end 10-year wait as Tottenham performance ... (ChronicleLive)

Jamie Carragher heaped praise on Newcastle United and their performances against the biggest Premier League sides.

"I talk to the players a lot about when you’re win and do a good job, live in it as long as you can. [Jamie Carragher](https://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/all-about/jamie-carragher) picked up on this point during commentary for Sky Sports on Sunday, praising Newcastle's ability to mix it with the best. "For me, it’s a little bit different, I’m already thinking about next week. The former Bournemouth boss admits he is taking each game as it comes, with his feet firmly planted on the ground. The 2-1 victory moved the Magpies above Chelsea and Manchester United to occupy a place among the coveted Champions League spots. "This Newcastle aren’t an easy touch, they’re really not," Carragher said. The north east outfit are snatching points from the usual big six and proving they can match almost any side this season. This time around, there is already talk that Eddie Howe's side could emulate that feat in just a few months. "The performances at Anfield and Old Trafford, they got a point out of those two games but they deserved a lot more. [Manchester City](https://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/all-about/manchester-city-fc) and [Manchester United](https://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/all-about/manchester-united-fc), and a last-gasp defeat at [Liverpool](https://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/all-about/liverpool-fc) shows how far Howe's side have come in a short period of time. [Howe](https://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/all-about/eddie-howe) himself is playing down talk of a European finish, one defeat in 12 games makes [Newcastle](https://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/all-about/newcastle-united-fc) one of the most in-form teams in the division. Newcastle United are in the top four of the Premier League at this stage of the season for the first time in over 10 years following Sunday's win at Tottenham.

'Nothing' - Dermot Gallagher's verdict on Tottenham v Newcastle ... (LondonWorld)

Ex-Premier League referee Dermot Gallagher has issued his verdict on the controversial moment during Tottenham vs Newcastle United.

Once the referee gives the goal, it’s never going to be changed.” Once the referee gives that, VAR is not going to get involved.

Tottenham 1-2 Newcastle - Match Report: Magpies fly into fourth (Coming Home Newcastle)

A third game inside a testing week for Eddie Howe's men saw them travel to the capital to face Tottenham Hotspur. An impressive point at Old Trafford ...

Newcastle are a real threat to the top six and are ruffling plenty of feathers so far this season. Managerless-Villa ahead next Saturday to wrap October up before the last two Premier League games before the World Cup take place in November—with an EFL Cup detour smacked right in the middle of those two. Newcastle felt they ought to have been awarded a penalty eight minutes after the restart when Joelinton’s far-post header hit the outstretched arm of Emerson Royal. Newcastle didn’t let that deflate them, they refused to sit back and looked dangerous on the counter as Joe Willock’s teasing shot was very nearly diverted on target by Wilson. Lloris’ poor clearance out wide was pounced on by the impressive Sean Longstaff who headed the ball down to Miguel Almiron. Two further attempts inside the first 10 minutes cleared Pope’s crossbar, but Son should have put the hosts in the lead when he latched onto Harry Kane’s through ball, only to see his dinked effort cleared by Kieran Trippier on the goal line.
