    In fairness, we always let Harry Kane do exactly as he pleases when we play spurs, so old habits and all that.

    The only thing left to play for is Lamb shank redemption. That was truly dreadful, can't believe there's only one goal in it. If that was boxing, we'd be on our way home............or to hospital.
    Right, now to turn it on its head. (yeah right)

    Really they should be three or four up and out of sight by now
    Damn fortunate to be only one down. Need the guys to really step up

    Definitely got the tactics wrong.
    All three of the Spurs front players are taking up position in space between the CBs and our midfield.
    If we don’t go flat back four, we really need to get Romeu to sit deeper so that the CBs can hold their positions.
    It doesn’t help that Spurs are bloody good at moving the ball around

    Roger East > Stu Atwell > Kevin Friend.

    And that says a lot.

    Blimey, that’s not what I expected. Sims and Long for Romeu and Austin.

    I feel like I did for the Arsenal defeat. It’s all about the Brighton game.

    Well, we are counter attacking with those changes. both those are speedsters. Hope people dont rate Sims too harshly based on being thrown into this.

    We had to take Rom off, he wouldn't have got to the 65th minute.

    Nothing to lose. We’ve got a huge goal difference on Cardiff and we need at least one goal, so let’s counter attack them

    Sims has had a real impact. Redmond should have hit the target but a good transformation.
