I thought we played ok - the point for us was much better than the point for Boro - if we can beat Wigan we start to get get clear of the drop zone

I like Robbo's hoofs, he may overdo them but on the who,e they're a tremendous asset - I can think of 4 goals already the is season without even trying too hard where his hoofs have led directly to goals, that's a phenomenal 'assist rate' for a keeper -

I wonder if any of our goals have started with a Robbo throw out - can't remember one.

I'd give Robbo 7 for his game yesterday - likewise Daws- both made one glaring error - naturally our other defenders all chipped in with at least one terrible mistake - the comedy defending by Kaboul and Lee early on, being pure spurs 07/08.

Tremendous goal by Bent - starting him away from home is a good idea - I wouldn't have done it yestrday, but can easily see the logic.

Lennon's looking good again - should we rest him on Thurs as the Wigan game is so huge now?

I watched the Manu/Arse game earlier and it was like two leagues difference in the pace, technical ability, vision and teamwork.

We have a long way to go to get anywhere near these teams for consistency.

i beleve thats the case in the midfield but once we hav king & our confidence back we match them everywhere else

can only hope Ramos&comolli invest in the cm in jan

I don't agree with that, Although it pains me to say it they are a class above us, we at the moment are not, TOP 4 and we are no way near title contenders

Robbo - 7 - Great save from that header in the second half and overall pretty solid. Beaten by a belter of a strike. Again.

Chimbo - 6 - A bit better, less of the dangerous stuff, although that backpass to Robbo was suicidal.

Dawson - 7 - Again, much better, but that slip could have been fatal.

Kaboul - 6 - Still showing signs of being a firework waiting to go off.

Lee - 7 - Solid defending and tried to help going forward.

Lennon - 6 - Tried hard but no real end product.

Jenas - 4 - I have tried to defend him but it is becoming difficult to now. Awful show.

Boetang - 7 - Decent enough showing, some neat passing.

Malbranque - 8 - Worked his socks off. Our best player on the day.

Bent - 5 - Great goal, but little else.

Defoe - 5 - Never showed any signs of what he can do.

SUBS

Keane - 6 - Worked hard, made some decent runs. Most intelligent forward at Spurs, bar none.

Berba - 5 - Never really got into the game.

Zokora - 6 - Solid enough but woeful passing near the end.

get real we were poor again and the saving grace was that they were also very poor - we need more structure but then again milan was not built in a day
