Really, was you watching the same game as me? 11 men behind the ball for 90 minutes and who was it that said get Martin O'Neil as our manager, delighted with a point at home with the most negative tactics of any team we have played this season, no thanks. And surprise,surprise and here comes Lought ripping into half the team, what we really needed was Taraabt with his 1 goal in 69 shots.

That was a hard fought, physical game. Sunlan was happy for us to have the ball then face us and hope to break away. 65% posession to us, 9 attempts but only 1 on target shows that Sunlan packed midfield and made life difficult. Did you see Scotty Parker interveiw after the game ? He was gutted. Did you see 'arrys face at the final whistle ? Gutted. So I would say YES they care very much about 3rd place . . . ..

FFS U Speak more sh*t than Mancini and Wenger put together everybody could see Sunderland parked the bus even MON admitted it Yorkey boy on Sky Sports said it but no Loughts always right as for selling Bale r u on crack you expect him to play well every single week hes not Messi that was our hardest game of the season left a point away at Sunderland is a good point

i didnt say sunderland didnt have 10 men behind the ball
but people on here always say that when we dont score
like swanseas and chelsea games to name a few

my point is we needed to change things earlyer because bale and ade did nothing.

if adel had games like that you be slagging him off but the truth is hes a big game player
plays well against arsenal twice and man u and chelsea

Selected quotes from the BBC website . . . . . .

In normal circumstances, a point at Martin O'Neill's resurgent
side would be praiseworthy, but in Tottenham's position it represents a
minor setback.

Spurs began the game brightly, but the home side neutralised the match, resulting in few clear-cut chances.

Harry Redknapp's team began purposefully, zipping passes around neatly in midfield and looking every inch the likely winners.

As the team in greater need of a win, Tottenham were more proactive, but they were unable to break down the home side

Sunderland manager Martin O'Neill:

"We weren't going to allow them to come here and pick up three points. We had some chances ourselves.

"While we didn't reach the heights of last week [at
Manchester City] in terms of possession we were up against a top team
vying for a Champions league place. It has been a commendable effort
from our players.

"We played two teams in the top four. We should have won at City and have got a draw here today."

Tottenham manager Harry Redknapp:

"It's always a difficult place to come but I thought it was a game we could have won.

"They looked to play on the counter-attack and it was
difficult to break them down. It's an important point, though, and a
clean sheet and if you keep picking up clean sheets you won't be far
away."

But this is the real world and unlike football manager you just cant buy Messi and bring him on and Taraabts a big game player, one goal in 69 shots? we got another game on Monday and need to use the squad wisely.

I watched Lineker for his whole 3 years at Spurs and I would say 75% of the games he did nothing, but got 30 goals a season when teams actually came to play football, I cant remember a prem season in living history that has been so negative.

That is why Harry is manager, he watches how the other team play and it was bad enough with them packing midfield, without sandro we would have been overrun, didn't you say bring back Lennon slowly?

With all the creativity we have in our squad if we struggle to break down teams like Sunderland we wont progress.

Stubborn Harry AGAIN keeps faith in his ideas and favourites and it doesnt work.

Some of this squad know they are undroppable no matter how they perform.

Thats called tactics Lought. It's what managers and their staff do for a living. Balancing the midfield so we don't get over-run. Both Parker & Sandro hold in front of the back 4 or 1 holds while the other breaks. And 65% posession proves we didn't get over-run and drop points instead of gaining one . . . . .

in our last 9 league games we have won 2
that says it all.

my point is bale ade and vdd should of come off but only ade comes off with 10 minutues left

why keep playing playins who are playing bad. take them off and USED THE SQUAD

poor kranker has 1 bad half and is taken off yet others can have game after game and is untouchble

Personally I didn't see the need for two holding players in midfield today. It seemed to be cluttered in there and stifled our attack, notwithstanding the fact that Sandro had a mare. Bringing Defoe on with 10 minutes to go was too late. He didn't get enough time to really get into the game. Modric was ineffectual too. We just seemed content to stroke the ball around in our own half without forcefully attacking them. the game was there for the taking and we missed a chance. Still, it's another point.

No urgency in our play, no desire, or hunger today. The manager and players played for the draw simple as that.

watching passes like Kabul-Parker-back to Kabul -Parker - Gallas- Parker-VDV-Benni-Kabul-Parker-Hellboy. and so on. You couldn't make it up but it actually happened!! I wrote it down as they were doing it. God forbid anyone should give it to Walker he might take it out of our comfort zone into THEIR HALF and pass to that sub boy.... what's his name? Oh yes Lennon.... whats he doing on the pitch? No no no let's rack up possesion points. Parker-Kabul-Parker-Gallas to ZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz Over to the dressing room for a post match interview with Harry. "Well Harry a point away from home" "Year well I fort we played really well had lots of possesion, it's a hard place to come Martin has done really well" He certainly has Harry he got the point he was after trouble is we needed 3
