Tottenham 1-2 Aston Villa: Jermaine Jenas analysis of Ange Postecoglou's side

There is a lot to admire about Tottenham Hotspur manager Ange Postecoglou being so stubborn about the way he wants his side to play, even with the players he has got missing.

There are a few negatives too, though, to counteract that - and not just with the run of three straight defeats Spurs are now on.

There has been naivety to some of Postecoglou's decisions during each of those results, which cost them against Aston Villa on Sunday and against Chelsea and Wolves before the international break too.

Yes, this is the type of football the fans want to see, and he is trying to create the right culture at the club, but if Spurs stick with the same approach when they face Manchester City at Etihad Stadium next weekend, then they are asking for trouble.
