Interesting game so far, Spurs came out of the gates quickly, but since then have mostly faltered. Their attack is very one dimensional, with everything coming down their right side through Townsend and Eriksen, with the latter receiving frequent diagonal ball from the former. Santon and Gouffran are doing well to keep them mostly well marshaled out there. If they're particularly effective the ball will sometimes be shifted across to their left where some space has been created. There's just about nothing from them through the middle which has meant that Tiote has had a pretty quiet game.

 

Now I will freely admit to not watching a great deal of Tottenham outside of highlights and our matches, but from just about everything I do see of them Dawson does not appear to be very good. Perhaps he's their Steven Taylor?

Dawson's a canny player, normally solid. We're just really exploiting his lack of pace well with Remy.

We need one more cuase Defoe is certain to score when he comes on.
