Does that feel like a missed opportunity after a pleasing first half?
Yes, there’s bits of it. We didn’t defend well enough on a couple of occasions. We gave them too much encouragement at the start of the second half, played three or four balls back to the goalkeeper just after the kick-off. We had a bit of control, but we played it square and back, which let Tottenham come on. We get caught on the ball twice in that opening, it felt like ten minutes, period at the start of the game. I think we just gave them encouragement to come on to us and we didn’t get over it. But ultimately, we made a couple of really poor mistakes for goals which at this level and with what we’ve got, we can’t afford.
Is it a psychological problem for your players when you are in the bottom three?
