You don't half talk tripe.
Redknapp was at fault for the team's first half performance, no one else. To play 4-4-2 in Europe, away from home in a hostile atmosphere, with only one defensive midfielder, is suicide, pure and simple. The minute Huddlestone came in for Assou Ekotto, it was plain to see. Had they started with the team that ended the game tonight, they'd have won, pure and simple.
Had we played with the same formation against that same team tonight, with Cole and Mascherano in the middle, or United with Fletcher and Scholes, you'd have seen a similair result. I can't remember off the top of my head Ferguson, Mourinho or Benitez played with more than one up front away from this club at this level. Obviously the teams I've listed have a better defence overall, but to suggest Spurs' best back four is a 'disaster waiting to happen' is complete and utter bollocks. Your shite stat about them not keeping a clean sheet against the 'Big four' isn't as clear cut as you make it out to be, when one was a penalty (Gerrard), whereas the one against Chelsea was a no more than a consolation goal in the last minute of extra time.
