We appear to have rectified the problem we were having with very slow tempo and too much space between the lines. We are not dwelling on the ball, and overall there's plenty of off the ball movement.
At 2-0 we need to start thinking a bit smart and looking at our game management. There's sometimes a temptation to sit back in the 2nd half, but its important that we come out with the same intensity and intent for at least the first 15 minutes or so. Tottenham will then be forced to make some substitutions, and with tiring players they'll struggle to create anything if we park the bus for the last 20-25 mins of the game. We can easily sit and hit them on the counter, but we have to earn that privilege by playing them out of the game for the first hour.
We have substitutes to make the difference too. Origi if we need more pace on the counter, Sturridge if we want to add a clinical edge, and Can if we want more power and physicality in midfield.
