    1-1 HT. A mixed half, for sure.
    Plenty of possession and we look capable of getting at them at the back, but we don't look solid, either.
    Should've had a penalty early on and a foul before their goal, but that's what we're up against at the moment.
    Need to up the gears in the second half and create more. Kane's barely had a sniff.

    HT.

    Well at least we’ve looked likely in the first half for the first time in weeks. Something to build on. Need to be careful centrally of the space we’re allowing, as Watford have players who could punish us.

    Watford will need to be careful of the way their breaking up play in the second half, as there’s a few players that Atkinson will have to start booking if they carry on. (You’d hope).

    I know this is ridiculously petty but when the ref blew for that foul at the end the clock was at 45:15. A minimum of 1 min of added time had been shown. By the time the ref blew his whistle for the kick to be taken it was 46:15. As the kick sailed over the goal the ref blew for half time. How's that right?

    2 goals, a booking, loads of dead balls and the ref talking to players. 1 minute added on <doh>

    We've been sloppy but we've still been well on top. Watford's goal came from one of many uncalled fouls when we're in attack. We only get anything when our players go to ground, it's ridiculous.

    Yeah - I know. Amazing. I think that right/wrong time/place is a huge thing in many players' careers and maybe something that's not considered enough.

    Much better from Spurs our domination of possession has been re introduced Trippier working well with the midfield down the right and Davies more thoughtful and innovative on the left. Dele lively and causing Watford lots of problems and Eriksen looking bright. In other words most of the problems of the last few games have been addressed. Always a sign of a top top manager.
    2 goals from Spurs in the second half and I smile for the weekend.

    EDIT: When I say "I know" I mean that I knew he did well. Not that I went around with those specific stats in my head all the time!

    Kabasele in the book for a cynical one. Kane was free into acres of space.

    Silly to give him the opportunity, but that's never a red. He doesn't swing the arm at him.

    We'll do well to hold onto a draw now. Needs to make a change and reorganise our midfield, for me.

    That's awful from Sanchez. Made a crazy decision in first half to try to beat two Watford players when isolated and nearly ****ed up.
