Tott en Ham [H] - After Match Musings

[G]

Thought we were very good and unlucky not win it. Sturridge can stroll around all he likes if he takes his chances when he gets them but he didn't so it wasn't good enough from him.

Lovren was top class for the most part but the goal is a pretty big black mark against him, lost concentration as the ball was running out and got too tight on Kane as he tried to make up the ground.

[Rich]

Entertaining game, plenty of good performances. Spurs are a good team and we matched them.

[Keyser Soze]

Our midfield is utter ****, Hendo and Milner leading the way - Can hot on their heels.
They're weak weak weak.

Sakho may be a good guy but has too many brain fart moments, he needs to upgraded.

Coutinho and Lallana were good but they need to up their game in front of goal, their goal return is far to poor.

I hope Leicester win tomorrow, can't stand Spurs.

[Keyser Soze]

Also Spurs show us what an excellent GK and consistent forward can get you - a title challenge.

Sturridge just doesn't want to run and i'd happily take £50m for the moody lazy player on show today, the sooner we get rid of the boat faced Belgian in goal the better also.

[gratziani]

i thought that Kane's goal was a brilliant finish and our goal was great team play with a emphatic ending.

We played really well at times as well and we are not far behind spurs at all at this present time either.

We're 9th in the table mate, we're far behind especially in terms of consistency.

Very well put. Although we had some shaky defensive moments, we held our own against a very good side.

Henderson was imperious today for me, best player on the pitch. Great defensively, and energy in the final third. Got into some really good positions.

Centre mid has been our biggest obstacle for years but for some reason alot of people are comfortable with the likes of Henderson when he's so mediocre.

[Keyser Soze]

He's surely trolling, i'd bite Spurs' hand off if they offered £25-30m for lego head. We could strengthen and weaken them.

[Mattshark]

We played well overall, but we need better passers of the ball under pressure in the centre mid.

We sure do but that is for next season, thought everyone did well today against spurs team who are fighting for the league.

We created loads of chances and LLoris saved them a few times.

[Muddled]

I'm with Pippo, Henderson had a very good game. It was a very disciplined performance and he sat in central midfield well. Can played well at the side of him but it was Henderson who covered him when Can starting playing with his heart. As the game went on Henderson started pushing the game forward and was the start of many of our attacks.

Lovren is starting to look very much like a defender. Sure, he got too tight on Kane, but bar that one error he had Kane in his pocket and marshalled him extremely well. Coutinho was the architect behind everything good that we did; his touch, balance and poise are an absolute delight and could have bagged a brace. Lallana was also another positive from the game.

As others have said, it was an entertaining game and a good tactical battle. I still think we had the clearer chances and still think we were better deserved of the three points.

[Exiled_red]

I think that the critisism of Lovren for the goal is harsh, he played well today and it was great play from Kane, I don't think there was much he could have done about it. I don't think that every goal we concede has to be someone's fault.
