Ange on if he felt Spurs should have got something out of the game after our second half display...
"I think so. First half, we were just a little bit too eager to get forward with the ball. I thought we were really wasteful and against City, it allows them to get into a rhythm of their game. They can pick you off at different times and we just didn’t handle that part of the game well. They scored and had a couple of good chances to get further ahead. I certainly felt second half we dominated the game and territory. We were pretty relentless, much better with the ball and a lot calmer, but just missing a goal and ultimately fell short."
Ange on being able to bring on the likes of Dejan Kulusevski, Heung-Min Son and Pape Matar Sarr and if that shows they're turning the corner...
"It’s disappointing to lose again and that’s the main feeling. It did look more like us today, at least from my perspective. We were really relentless, we played aggressive football, we took it to a very good opponent, we never tapered off at all. If anything, like you said, bringing the guys on made us stronger towards the end of the game. Disappointing to lose, but I think you see the benefit of us being refreshed and going into a game well prepared. That level of performance in the second half, if we can begin to get consistent with that then we will be able to push on."
Ange on Wilson Odobert's first start since September...
"I thought he was great. It was important tonight that Wilson, Destiny and Brennan got some minutes. Again, it’s one thing to get guys back from injury, but we have got to get them up to speed as quick as we possibly can. You could see Wilson hasn’t played for a while, but you could also see the quality he has. I think he grew into the game in the second half. I thought he was a big catalyst at the beginning of the second half when he was running at the opposition. He is an exciting player and if we can manage him through this period and get him to a really decent level of fitness, I’m sure he will help us finish the season strong."
