I personally thought that was the best we have defended all season ( and last for that matter ) Keeper made two worldies in the first half and came for everything. Fabio was close to being my MOTM , onuha had the best game i've seen im have in our shirt. Nelsen and Hill were immense.
Agreed. I didn't realise that Cesar had pushed the Defoe shot onto the post. Looking forward to seeing that on MOTD. We would have lost with Green in goal imo. Fabio was fantastic!
Best this season, agree with you there. Fantastic performance considering the age and pace of Hill and Nelsen (and Derry) considering the pace of the Tottenham attack. Still can't get my head around how good that amazing double save of Cesar, truly world class.
Disagree with Derry mate, his distribution was so poor today , and sat too deep ( as did the whole midfield ).
They were all very disciplined. Stuck to a plan. Park worried me a bit but Derry and especially Mbia did a sound job in midfield. Tarbs lost a bit more possession than he did at Chelsea but overall really disciplined all round. As has been said, big credit to our two full backs today; Fabio was a revelation.
Agree with all of that. Onouha was outstanding. First truly effective game I have seen him have at full back.
Fabio was brilliant today, showed his class and proved why Man U have kept him and only loaned him out. Agree that he was very close to MOM today.
During some of their attacks he was running from player to player but never really caught up with the ball as he was coming 1 second late
He did give the ball away a bit at times, but he's supposed to sit deep, in front of the back four. Our midfield were all deep because that was the game plan, to allow them possession till they were in our defensive third.
Have to say the work-rate of the whole team was exceptional today. Harry has been banging on since day one that the team have to work their socks off and they did just that today. Spurs must have thought they just had to turn up for the points today, like Chelsea, they found us too resilient...
Agree with all of that. Onouha was outstanding. First truly effective game I have seen him have at full back.[/QUOTE] Agree with this. Lennon lost the will to live today and turned down the opportunity to run down the channel against Onouha several times. He has serious pace for a big man. His confidence is growing game by game.
