  John Collins in Player Ratings: Mykolenko outstanding in defensive masterclass
• This may sound trivial but why play in that ( boiled shite) horrible coloured third kit ? The normal kit (Blue and White) did NOT clash with Spurs Home kit ! Players are used to passing (which was also awful today) to a blue shirt, so not the sole reason we were poor today but possibly a contributory factor. Moyes' team selection again left a lot to be desired, does he know we can use more than 3 subs ? Like many have said he set up for a 0-0, which is a defeatist attitude. Considering the struggles Spurs have had after spending £300M, he should have gone for the jugular. The sooner he is replaced the better. I feel for all those fans, that have put more effort into going, than he seems to have done in coming up with a more positive strategy and attitude. I appreciate we have limitations due to the size of our squad, but use what we do have more wisely !...
  Derek Knox in Player Ratings: Mykolenko outstanding in defensive masterclass
• Martin (62&77), I’d have to agree with Annika. For a start, a ‘defensive masterclass’ may simply begin and end with excellent organisation, which essentially neutralises a lot of the opposition’s threat by making them have to run down blind alleys, attempt passes with very little chance of success, but you won’t see any that with a radio commentary and I’ve not ever heard one that really gives you that granular detail. I get the impression you are attacking the wording of the headline at least partly because you don’t think you have to be that good to nullify Spurs attacking threat. If so then you are being very hard on the likes of Robertson, Tonali, Savio, Marmoush, Maddison and Kudus. The biggest ‘red flag’ in your posts is your use of the phrase ‘one-way traffic’. That’s just not a term that should be applied to today’s game. It’s true that Spurs had the lion’s share of possession (largely because we were wasteful and disjointed in possession rather...
