    What are you on about ? It didn't work out for us that day, as I said. It was down to the form of Kane that you won as you didn't really offer much else (which is where we got a bit unlucky as he was in blistering form) but we were poor that day overall and our tactics didn't work out.

    Why is it unlucky to encounter a striker in top form?

    Because usually Spurs' strikers can't score for toffee.

    Arsenal were unlucky because they got totally outplayed and a striker scored two good goals against them! <laugh>

    It's like we cheated them out of 3 points.
