Liverpool's draw with Spurs on Saturday evening was a big blow, but you’d have to say that Tottenham got their tactics right. We huffed and puffed a little bit but there was no lack of effort. We just couldn’t get that breakthrough. You’ve got to give Spurs credit for doing a bit of a job on us.
When you look at the players and mark them out of 10, we didn’t have enough eights really. When we’re playing really well three or four of them could get an eight. But there was a lot of sixes and the only one who really shone was (Luis) Diaz. No one could really break them down or find a way to produce a bit of quality. They didn’t make any mistakes that we could capitalise on. When they got their goal it was always going to be hard to get two.
