Every word Postecoglou said on Maddison, Bissouma and why he'd love a joystick to control Spurs

David Moyes just said a draw was a fair result, do you agree?

To a certain extent. I thought for the most part we controlled the game pretty well. It's a tough place to come and they're a big strong team, they sit deep and make it difficult for you. You know you're going to have to be fairly calm in your approach and also really disciplined because they're always a threat on the counter attack. I thought for the most part we handled that really well.

We obviously conceded from a set piece but we still handled the rest of the set pieces really well, considering they're a big side and the delivery. I thought we coped with it well. I thought we coped with their counter attacks fairly well. Just probably for us in their final third we lacked a little clarity in thought, in our decision-making. We got in some good areas and probably could have got some much better outcomes. I thought our general play was really good and I was really happy with it.

Was there a knock for James Maddison, hence his recent early withdrawals?

He's not carrying a knock. If he was carrying a knock he wouldn't be playing. He's fine, yeah.

What are your thoughts on his performance?

I thought Madders was really good, especially when he got in their final third. I thought he played some really clever passes that we just didn't capitalise on. I think for all the guys in the front third area — not just the attacking players, the full-backs as well, we got into some really good areas, it's just about trying to show them that they don't need to be so rushed in their decision making and we'll get better outcomes.
