We should have tried to do it the way we beat Arsenal, early momentum, the crowd behind us, a quick goal and then pull the shutters down.
I'm firmly behind the manager but that doesn't mean he's averse to criticism, especially when it seems there's some justification to it.
I alluded to how we sometimes can let teams find their feet in games, that's not how we managed to win all those games at VP.
There was a reason for McGinn,s anger, and to me, it seemed borne out of frustration at Spurs being able to pass the ball to a teammate wily - nily.
That doesn't excuse his lack of discipline, but it does help, imo, to explain it.
I'm still hopeful that we can achieve our aims of at least some silverware and 4th or 5th, but we need to regain the self - belief that has enabled us to have those aims, especially at VP.
