Nope, you never mentioned the third goal there either.  So I take it you''r not going to. So what is the point of your now 12 posts on here?

Still not answered it. The question was about the defending on the third goal.  Yes, we were pushing forwards in the game, but the defender still ran away from the man with the ball leaving him an open shot on goal.  Is that not bad defending?

If anyone would like to step in at this point and just agree with Lakey, that would be great thanks.I think he really needs it.

Personally I didn''t think the second goal was particularly acceptable. Kane was in acres of space on the left (where was Olsson or a covering player?) and was pretty much unchallenged (where was Bassong or a covering player?) until he shot.

For me the third goal is a bit of a moot point. We''d gone with two strikers but personally thought the game was beyond us at this point anyway.

So for me the OP is kind of missing the point and trying to lay the blame somewhere, when in reality our defending in the match up to that point and for the goals should be criticised/discussed more. Saying that though, our midfield play and attacking in the final third was completely lacking anyway, apart from maybe the first few minutes when Ofoe tested Lloris.

I see no need to find any scapegoats.

Whereas I think we can compete with any team if we''re on it, their midfield and movement was so good that you sometimes just have to accept they''re a class above. I''m not very concerned about losing against a very good Spurs side.

Whatever the merits of goals one and two, the third one effectively ended the game as a contest, which is why it was a shame, particularly because of the way it was defended.  At 2-0 if you get one back it puts the opposition on the back foot a little bit.  All these "it''s Spurs we were always going to lose" type posts are imo way too submissive.

Submissive? Coming from a poster who defended Hughton for months. CH was frightened to death of most teams in the league and we basically waved a white flag before every away game.

[/quote]Not submissive, more realistic.Sometimes it''s about picking the battles you are more likely to get something out of. To beat an inform Spurs our boys would have had to play at the top of their games, risking tiredness and injuries for a crucial 6 pointer against Villa and a slighly easier Soton team (hmmm). I think Alex knows what he is doing. Monday''s game will prove if he got it right or not.

[/quote]Yet you said this in the "Outclassed" thread :-Ultimately outclassed, but had a good beginning to the game and if we

had scored the first goal during that time, it would have put some doubt

in the opposition.  As it was, once the first goal went in they were

too good.

So what?   Are you going to invent some imagined contradiction out of that?
