Tottenham manager Ange Postecoglou has reflected on a difficult evening. Here he is, speaking to BBC Sport:
💬 “It’s obviously a painful one for us. Credit to Liverpool, they were too good for us. It was a bridge too far for us. We looked like we lacked energy, which is understandable.”
When asked if anything other than widespread injuries explained his side’s defensive issues, he added:
💬 “I’m just going to stop answering these questions. If people can’t see the obvious, I’m not going to point it out. Make of it what you want.
“Yes, we’re conceding goals. We’re missing a goalkeeper, two centre-backs and left-back. It’s fairly significant.
“If you took out Liverpool’s goalkeeper, two centre-backs and a left-back — or any team other than Liverpool — they’d find it tough going as well.”
