    A good point, a clean sheet, not a bad night

    Bollocks. We got our tactics right and forced them play like that.!

    Seriously though, there was a huge gap in class but the team put in a hell of shift.

    Good point, pity others around us have done better but onwards and upwards.

    Back 3 looked very good. He should leave honeyman in the reserves though, the lad looks well out of his depth.

    Made a big difference having Kone and Ndong back.

    It's a real shame big vic is injured, with him in the side I would be confident of staying up.

    we played well and it is a great result against a good spurs side but with other results going against us we'll need to go one better at the weekend just to stay in touch.

    I think we're all in agreement that a point against spurs is a good point and we'd all have taken it.

    Good result. Excellent defensive display but again, we just don't have the tools to get the ball out of our own half. We don't have any players comfortable going forward. Incapable. Hand in pocket Short while there's still time.

    I'm happy with the point. Didn't see us getting that at all.

    Sooner or later though he's going to have to try and nick games. Other results didn't go our way tonight.

    No where near the standard unfortunately, plenty of effort but always one pass behind chasing shadows, weak on the ball again and panicked when he wasn't brushed off. Nowt against the lad but a fully fit decent squad and he'd be nowhere that pitch and unlikely to ever get near it. Hope Gooch is close to fitness, he's a much better option to have.

    Could not have been worse result wise, but bottom getting a point against second top is at least a crumb. A few players back and more options makes it a bit happier reading.

    Moyes really did a number on our attack today.
    Completely stifled us and we failed to create anything.
    Looks like he's found the system that suits your personnel, if that's anything to go by.

    Well done tonight and good luck for the rest of the season. <ok>

    Spot on assessment mate. I can't understand why he bought him on.

    He is. The problem with sitting back like he does is that it often backfires, like it did against West Ham for example.

    No coincidence that Kone's return means a clean sheet. We had our good run before he went to the ACON.
