Aston Villa goalkeeper Brad Friedel has taken a swipe at Tottenham fans after Saturday's 0-0 draw.

Spurs have dropped points at home to Stoke, Wolves and Hull this season and their fans have turned on Harry Redknapp's team - but this time they accused Villa of being "boring".

In truth, Spurs simply could not find a way past Richard Dunne and James Collins - and when they did Friedel was at his dependable best.

The only surprise was Redknapp keeping Eidur Gudjohnsen on the bench, rather than bringing his new signing on to support Peter Crouch and Jermain Defoe.

"It's funny because a lot of their attacks came from long balls up to Crouchy, who headed it down to Defoe," Friedel added. "So I'm not quite sure where they (Spurs fans) are coming from."
