Tottenham boss Harry Redknapp admits Fulham defender Brede Hangeland was the difference in Saturday's derby defeat.
The American-born Norway international was outstanding and Redknapp conceded: "We never really got hold of the game. We started in second gear and never got out of it.
"They deserved the win. I thought we could come and get a win but they worked hard and were solid.
"We stopped passing the ball and started thumping balls onto the big centre-half's head and he will deal them all day.
"He is a magnificent header of the ball. He is about six-foot five. We started to panic and change our game."
