Ange Postecoglou believes VAR did not help Spurs, who narrowly beat Everton in the Premier League.
TIMESTAMPS
00:00 INTRO
00:04 What did you make of the performance and the result today? Obviously the result is very pleasing against a very difficult opponent today in Everton, who have been the form team of the competition for the past few weeks.
01:08 Is Cristian Romero ok? He felt tightness in his hamstring just before half-time so we had to take him off.
01:18 You're not a fan of VAR but do you think it helped you out today with the Everton goal ruled out? Nah, see that's really bad terminology. Why would it help us out? It was a foul.
01:55 So you thought it was a foul? I thought it was a foul, yeah....but the referee missed it and probably missed another foul as well. That's part of the game, that's part of football.
02:10 Another goal for Richarlison but he came off holding his back, is he ok? Yeah he's okay. He's kind of had a sore back yesterday in training. He wasn't 100 per cent, but he was keen to start today. He got through the game. Pleasing for him that he took his goal well and worked hard for us, but I kind of knew that at some point we'd have to take him off, but I don't think it's anything serious.
02:40 What did you put down the amount of defending you had to do down to, was it the missing defenders? Well that plays a part. We've got players playing out of position. Eric has come on at half-time and the last time he played would have been weeks ago, but at the same time I think a lot of their chances came from balls into the box and being very aggressive which they're good at.
03:46 Why is Richarlison playing so much better now? He's playing mate. He was out injured. He was struggling with his fitness. He just wasn't 100 per cent. He was soldiering on, as you do, but he just feels a bit freer now, both mentally and physically, and that helps him out. His performances since he's got back, apart from the goals, have been really good.
04:13 What did you make of him going over to the Everton fans at full-time and getting applause from all of them, that doesn't happen much? It's great on both sides. It's great for Richy to go over, and it's great for the Everton fans to acknowledge him. These things happen in football. I don't think anyone would question Richy's service for Everton Football Club. I think the fans appreciate that, and he appreciated the fans. Now he's with us, and he's doing his best for this football club.
