00:00This felt like a game that hinged on some pretty big decisions.
00:02What were your thoughts on the main ones and how they influenced the game?
00:07I think the goal we got chopped off for offside was the correct decision.
00:13At the time and where I looked at it from the touchline, it looked to me as if everyone was OK.
00:19I've just looked at it after I came in after the game, so I can't argue with that.
00:23Fair enough. Do you have any claims for pick for foul on the second goal or are you comfortable with that one?
00:30No, I don't think it was a foul on that.
00:33With that being the case, how much responsibility do you put at the feet of your own players for this result then?
00:40Sorry?
00:40So with that being the case, how much responsibility for this result do you put at the feet of your own players?
00:45Oh well, the players will always take responsibility and I do. Of course we do.
00:50We've been very good at set pieces in the main.
00:52But today, Spurs, Spurs who, you know, under Thomas, whatever team Thomas has had have been good at set pieces.
00:59Big part of their job, their deliveries were good.
01:03We had more corner kicks than them today.
01:05But they got their head on them and we didn't.
01:08And the goalkeeper punched a few and we didn't.
01:12What frustrated you most?
01:13Very little frustrated me because we actually played well today.
01:19We've done a lot of good things.
01:20We've lost really, we've been undone by set pieces.
01:24So I'm not happy about it.
01:27But if you're saying to me about lots of other parts of the game, there's lots of good things in the game which we need to do better in some aspects.
01:34But overall, there were some positive performances today.
01:37Okay, thank you.
01:43David, you probably haven't had much time to see the two set-piece goals back.
01:50But, I mean, from what you've seen so far, you've been able to pinpoint exactly kind of what went wrong in those goals.
01:56Yeah.
01:57Are you able to talk a little bit about those?
02:01Were you surprised to see?
02:02I mean, Everton traditionally are strong from set-piece.
02:05Were you surprised to see that today?
02:06I think that other teams couldn't be good at it.
02:08So it wasn't for the lack of preparation or us working and defending it.
02:13Sometimes, you know, if you lose goals from set-pieces.
02:15No, we're trying to score goals from set-pieces today.
02:21It's difficult.
02:22All the managers will be working on trying to score and also trying to defend them.
02:26We got out today, and it's not something, you rightly said, that we're sort of known for.
02:30But I'm disappointed in it.
02:33I really am.
02:33I'm not happy that we conceded them because there were a couple of things we could have done better.
02:40That was it.
02:47Cheers.
02:48Sorry, there was one.
02:49Hi, David.
02:55I just wanted to get your take on what you made of the atmosphere was the first loss here.
03:00There was a bit of frustration in the crowd.
03:03What did you make of it in general, having a first loss here?
03:05That's it.
03:06Football fans at all stadiums get frustrated when their team is not winning.
