Woodgate: Tottenham not playing as team

Jonathan Woodgate admits Tottenham "aren't playing as a team" and shouldn't be surprised by the lowly position on the Premiership table.

The defender said: "Was this a turning point in our season? Well, we keep on saying 'This is a turning point', like after the Chelsea game. The truth is we are not playing as a team. We've been easy to play against.

"How many league games have we won in 2008? Maybe about five.

"Even the post-Carling Cup slump wasn't understandable. We want to win the game every time we cross that white line but it hasn't happened.

"There's nothing like a win but we haven't won. We've just been losing and we're not happy.

"People ask can I believe where we are. I can easily believe it. As players, we always talk about the situation among ourselves.

"We are puzzled, wondering when we are going to start playing good football but know only we can put that right.

"We're all under pressure. When you play for a big club it's everyone, not just the manager. We all try to rally everyone else."
