If we showed this much ambition and commitment earlier this season as we have today we wouldn't be in this position. We lack real quality and between selling players and injuries it hasn't helped

Tottenham bossing it at the moment.

Their first 30 seconds where they've managed to keep the ball, apart from that we've been on top, always first to the ball, 110% effort.

Keep calm, Stu.

Ireland looks really up for it, But as ever, McLeish playing one up front negates his impact.

Well, playing Heskey up front anyway.

It's not the one up front, it's who the one up front is, the depth of the midfield and the wide players playing as secondary full-backs.

Nice to see the closing-down energy of the team so far; they need to maintain this for the full 90+ minutes.

N'Zogbia is so utterly frustrating to watch.

Given the players available, I don't have a problem with Warnock playing in MF. The problem is actually N'Zog who looks so bereft of confidence and energy.

N'Zogbia has been poor so far today.

Get Carruthers on for N'Zog if he's not fit to play on.
