FT: Tottenham 2-2 Man City
Tottenham boss Thomas Frank, speaking to BBC Radio 5 Live on Sours' opening goal: "I think Dom [Solanke] got a clear touch on it, but I can see it is a 50-50 situation. I think it is one of those which is borderline, but I think it can be a goal.
"It is not easy [staying calm]. What I like and what I think is truly important is when your back is against the wall as a team and a group you need to fight - you can never give up. I love that never say die attitude from the players and the fans were massive for us. That never says die attitude which I think has been in the team. The mentality is building stronger, and stronger."
On Dominic Solanke: "He is quite good, eh? I just think what he has given to us, and he is 70-80% of his level. Dom is so important for us and he showed that for us today."
On Cristian Romero's half-time substitute: "Illness. He will be assessed, but he should be OK."
'It is a set-back but we are still there'published at 19:25 GMT 1 February
FT: Tottenham 2-2 Man City
Image source, Getty ImagesManchester City manager Pep Guardiola, speaking to BBC Sport: “We played a really good game in general. At 70 minutes they put more balls in behind, more players there, more players in the middle to attack more direct.
“They found a goal and we know what’s happened and after that they had the momentum. The Premier League is like that. We had out momentum again at the end.
“It is a set-back but we are still there, we move on and move. There are 14 games to go and a lot of points. We will see."
'We can create something magic together'published at 19:20 GMT 1 February
FT: Tottenham 2-2 Man City
Tottenham manager Thomas Frank, speaking to BBC Sport: “We changed the system to a 4-4-2, it was not about the system. We had to adjust the high pressure to win the ball back better, what we did in the middle so nothing came through us and offensively playing a little more behind them and that belief from one step at a time.
“It is quite evident that Dom has been a big miss for us. We’ve been without him for six months and now we have him back. Four goals in four games speaks its own language, he was very impressive and he is not fit yet. You could see in the last 15 minutes he could not run.
“Very happy with Pape [Matar Sarr[, he was very good. He just came back from five or six weeks at Afcon where he did not play too much. Second half he was very impressive.
“I think we can create something magic together the players and the fans when we are united like we were especially second half but also the Dortmund game. That atmosphere, intensity, that’s what pushed the players and they really needed it.
“I prefer it going more smooth I think that is fair to say but this is football. In this spell I think we have done more good things than bad things but not enough performances have turned into results but now I am happy we have four decent performances and unbeaten.
"It was a big point with that second-half performance. The players mentality has been good throughout."

They were better in the second half and when you play on the front foot and close down and give the fans something to cheer about, they will cheer.
'When we unite fans and players, we can create magic'published at 19:17 GMT 1 February
FT: Tottenham 2-2 Man City
Image source, Getty ImagesTottenham boss Thomas Frank speaking to Sky Sports: "I am extremely proud of the players. I am so happy that they, we got something out of it and a well-deserved point. It's even more impressive with the injury situation we have. We are down the the bare bones and that character and never-say-die attitude from the players and the fans - the fans in the second half it means so much, they helped us so much to come back in this game. It was a very good example of what we can do together. I am happy that we finally got something out of a big second half. We finally got something and we are on the right track I would say."
On if that was the best and biggest 45 minutes for him at Spurs: "I don't know if it was the best. There are always big 45 minutes, but that character and mentality the players showed, we tried to install belief. How they went out in the second half and came back, that shows everything about the group. That never-say-die thing they have shown for a long time now but we got the result which is big."
On if others would have given up when 2-0 down at half-time: "Maybe. I can just say what we try to do and create is that never-say-die attitude. We respond well to setbacks and we showed a few times but we finally got something out of that. It was big, all of the players showed a fantastic attitude."
On how hard the first half was personally: "It is more fun when it's more smooth but this is football, this is life. You need to show resilience and stay as calm as possible and carry on. They had one moment and we made a mistake and got punished. The first half was not bad, but the second half was much better."
On what it meant to have the crowd on side: "It means not only to me but to the team and the players. We have seen two good performances. The Dortmund game and this second half. When we unite fans and players, we can create magic. That is what we need to keep pushing. It meant the world to me and to all of us."
On if he needs help before the transfer window shuts: "I have plenty of support. We are definitely still in the market. We hit a little bit hard with injuries but let's see."

City is wasting every opportunity to get closer and challenge Arsenal Considering the run of games left still is a race to the title but City will need to win every game left by now to have a fight by mid May…and Spurs just survived to live another day…
Felipe, Andover
Pep making excuses again. Pathetic, lackadaisical, arrogant performance from City. No energy or urgency to finish games off. Congrats Arsenal.
Paul, Warrington
City are becoming an embarrassment, played like a training game in the first half, arrogant, lazy, overpaid, not good enough. From a city supporter

'The manager has been amazing'published at 19:12 GMT 1 February
FT: Tottenham 2-2 Man City
Image source, Getty ImagesTottenham midfielder Conor Gallagher speaking Match of the Day: "It was a tough first half. They dominated the ball and made it hard for us. They definitely had control of the game and we were a bit lost, when to press and when not to press. We had a good turnaround in the second half.
On if Tottenham's midfield was outnumbered in the first half: "We were. They had a lot of players in midfield. They were playing great but we changed a couple of things in the second half and it definitely helped. The lads did great and the second-half performance was
On Dominic Solanke: "He's a top player. Dom has been brilliant the last few games since he came back from injury. he is strong, he can put his body about and he brings players into the game. you could see that in the second half.
"Everyone was very good in the second half. We stuck together and showed great character and personality. I just hope we can kick on from this and get some better results."
On if he was surprised by what he arrived to at Tottenham: "No it's not surprised me. I understood the position we were at when I came in. I would have hoped for a better start in terms of results. We stay positive and wanted to get a result today ad we did. it was a good point and hopefully we can kick on from it."
On Thomas Frank: "The manager has been amazing. He stays so positive even when he could easily not be. After the first half he was still positive and telling us where we can improve and not letting our head drop. he was great and changed tactical stuff which helped as well.
On if the last 10 minutes showed glimpses of where this club can go: "It's an amazing football club. I know the fans aren't happy right now and we understand that because we aren't either. We want to be higher in the table and getting better results."

I don't think the first goal should have stood. I think Dominic Solanke kicks through Marc Guehi.
I don't want VAR scrapped, but it does need work. I want it to stay here.

"Fascinating in the Premier League."
'It is not over yet'published at 19:00 GMT 1 February
FT: Tottenham 2-2 Man City
Manchester City winger Antoine Semenyo, speaking to BBC Sport: "They started to pick up momentum, creating chances and we started sinking deep.
"The way we set up was to draw them out a little bit. It worked perfectly in the first half. I had another chance before my goal. I am kicking myself but we have to go again.
"Definitely [winning] would have helped our cause but it is not over yet, there are 14 games to go so anything can happen."
'Fourteen games is a lot of games'published at 18:58 GMT 1 February
FT: Tottenham 2-2 Man City
Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola speaking to Sky Sports: "It was a good game. After the goal they conceded, we struggled. We came back again. In general it was a really good performance. Unfortunately we could not win."
On what his gameplan was: "The gameplan is try to play with the ball and try to score goals and not concede."
what changed: "They put more in the back, they found a goal and after that the momentum happened. some transitions the control they had we didn't have. it was not a big issue.
On if he took Rodri off due to his yellow card: "That was not the reason."
On the blow to the title race: "We are playing at a high level. We didn't have the consistency to win the games when others were able to do it, 14 games it a lot of games. Six points [gap to Arsenal]. Next one."

FT: Tottenham 2-2 Man City
Tottenham forward Dominic Solanke, speaking to Sky Sports: “It was a game of two halves. The first half was difficult we could not get near them at times. The second half was a different story. In the second half we were great and grew with confidence and belief and could have gone on to win it. We know we need to start games quicker.
“A few tactical tweaks. At half time we had a chance to do that. In the second half we had to show fight and belief and I thought we did.
“We needed to change something because it was very difficult to press. We made that change and it worked very well. We know we haven’t been as good as we want to be in the league and we need the fans behind us. When we are all together I think we can fly.
"We are trying to build on it. That is four games unbeaten now and we want to start winning games for sure. We need to focus on that and keep building. When everyone is on it and we have the crowd and everyone has that confidence and belief we know we can beat anyone."
'We are six points behind, it's not the end'published at 18:45 GMT 1 February
FT: Tottenham 2-2 Man City
Image source, Getty ImagesManchester City goalscorer Antoine Semenyo speaking to Sky Sports: "First half we played really well. The mentality was to do the same things again. Second half that didn't happen and they dominated. Everyone is visibly frustrated and we go again."
On the first-half plan: "It was just keeping the ball and drawing them out. We did that really well and had a few chances on that.
On why they couldn't sustain that: "Couldn't tell you if I'm honest. They started picking up momentum and had a couple of chances. Getting the crowd into it helped. The crowd were behind them and it definitely helps."
On what has been said in dressing room: "We've got more games, there are 14 games to go. We are six points behind, it's not the end. We have to keep going.
"Anything can happen. 14 games to go, they might lose a couple of games and we might win. The dynamic changes and we have to see what happens."

Match Facts
Tottenham have completed the Premier League double over Manchester City nine times so far, more than they have any other opponent. Meanwhile, only Chelsea (10) have done so more against the Citizens.
Man City have won their last two away league games against Spurs, last winning three in a row between February 1973 and August 1974.
Tottenham Hotspur are winless in five Premier League matches (D3 L2), their fourth run of 5+ winless games in the last two seasons. They only had four runs of five or more winless games across their previous 12 seasons combined from 2012-13 to 2023-24.
In the last two seasons, Manchester City rank sixth for points won away from home in the Premier League (46 in 30 games – an average of 1.53 per game). In the two seasons beforehand in 2022-23 and 2023-24, City won the joint most away points (81 in 38 games – 2.13 points per game).
In the last two seasons, the only ever-present sides to pick up fewer Premier League points than Tottenham (66) are Wolves (50) and West Ham (63), with Spurs’ 31 defeats second only to Wolves (37) in that time. Another defeat would mean Spurs have lost 10+ games for eight consecutive seasons since 2018-19 – in their eight seasons beforehand (2010-11 – 2017-18) this only happened twice.
Man City faced as many shots as they had themselves last time out against Wolves (11 each), the seventh time this season they’d either had fewer or as many attempts as their opponents in a Premier League game, the joint most in a season under Pep Guardiola. They are only averaging 4.7 more shots per game than their opponents this season, their smallest difference in a season under the Spaniard.
Man City’s Pep Guardiola has lost more league games against Spurs than any other opponent in his managerial career (8).
Thomas Frank has won just four of his last 22 home Premier League matches, with an identical record (W2 D3 L6) across his last 11 games with Brentford as in his first 11 with Spurs (W4 D6 L12 overall). Frank has the worst points per game at home of any Spurs boss in Premier League history (0.82).
Omar Marmoush netted his first Premier League goal of the season in Man City’s 2-0 win over Wolves but all eight of his goals in the competition have been scored at home – he’s failed to score with all 20 of his attempts in 12 games away from home.
Man City’s Antoine Semenyo has scored five goals in his last eight Premier League appearances, the joint most of any player in that timeframe (15 December onwards). One of those was a late winner against Spurs for Bournemouth in January, with only Eric Cantona in 1992-93 (Leeds and Man Utd) and Benito Carbone in 1999-00 (Sheff Wed and Aston Villa) scoring against Spurs for two teams in a single season.
