Answer the question

What would you have done? It's easy to moan when you don't get what you want. Personally I think we should have started with a defensive formation that clogged the midfield and tried to frustrate them, but its easy to be wise after the event. Hoots tried to be positive and it didn't work out but I'm not going to criticise him for that. Spurs played well enough that in all probability nothing we'd tried would have got us anything but we could have increased our chances slightly. Too many players played badly for tactics to be much of a factor to be honest.

        A little unfair picking on Elmander as other than Bassong the whole team under performed (n/m) (NCFC) - The Gaffer, Sep 15, 09:28:14
