Result aside, that was not a cohesive performance. Carrick still has a lot to do. Relied heavily on the ball over the top. Passing needs to be more fluid.
🚨Pedro Porro on what happened between him and Jacob Ramsey after Tottenham’s defeat to Newcastle:
🗣️ Reporter: “Pedro, what happened between you and Jacob Ramsey after the game?”
🗣️ Pedro Porro: “Jacob walked up to me and laughed in my face. I called him and asked why he was laughing. He asked me, ‘Do I have no reason to laugh?’ I told him, ‘Are you mocking us because we lost?’
“He said, ‘You didn’t just lose, you always lose.’ That was a very insulting thing to say. I took it personally because there is a difference between having a laugh after a game and deliberately trying to disrespect another player.
“I was angry in that moment, but my teammates intervened and stopped the situation from going any further. I understand football is emotional and there will always be banter, but I don’t think a footballer should address a fellow footballer like that.
“We can compete, we can talk, we can celebrate when we win, but there has to be respect between players. I shook it off eventually, but what he said was unnecessary and I definitely took it personally.”
