Tottenham - Nottingham Forest

In my opinion the so called punch did not warrant a red card and I found Yates reaction to the incident rather pathetic.

Some predictable posts blaming Nuno and our defending again but the truth is (again) that if we were more clinical in front of goal (Wood) and if we made better decisions and delivred a better final ball (Elanga) then we most probably would not have lost that game.

We can't concede three goals away from home and expect to get anything.

That's the truth, no matter how you want to dress it.

I am not dressing anything just stating a fact that we are not clinical enough yet the defence always gets slated when we lose.

It was Tottenham a top four club and a Champions League team most seasons and it was away from home. Was you expecting us to go there play them off the park and win?

We conceded three goals, how can the defence not be subjected to criticism?

Our xG (which is not something I put much stock in) was apparently higher than Tottenham's yesterday.

I didn't expect us to play them off the park but its pretty obvious what their strengths and weaknesses are, yet we leaned into them.

Had Cooper been in charge he would have been quite rightly criticised defensively for that performance.

Its schoolboy stuff mate.
