What if Tottenham's main problem isn't finishing? A Licence coach JJ says the real flaw is recognition — seeing the moment half a second too late — and it runs through every sliding-doors chance at Anfield.
Jim and JJ go player by player through the Liverpool game: Tosin's impressive first start and whether the Danso doubters (Jim included) got it wrong, Senesi's playmaking from centre half, the Udogie toe-poke behind McAllister's goal, the Archie Gray freeze-frame doing the rounds, Conor Gallagher's real value beyond the number 10 comparisons, and whether Marmoush can truly lead the line.
Then JJ puts his house keys on the table and explains his toothpaste theory of Spurs' season — once you've heard it, you won't watch the next game the same way.
