We asked for your thoughts after Wednesday's Carabao Cup game between Newcastle United and Tottenham Hotspur.

Here are some of your comments:

Newcastle fans

Steve: The first time I can remember, we actually had a squad to rotate, everyone played well, and that is still with three players missing.

Paul: Excellent performance from Tonali, ran the show, but a big thumbs up to Ramsdale - great saves, great on the floor with the ball and spread confidence through the back four.

Katie: A very professional performance, good pressing and energetic style. Slight worry that we didn't put our foot on the neck in terms of closing the game out by half-time. Need to be more clinical!

George: We were in control for most of the game. While Tottenham had a few chances, Ramsdale made a few good saves and had good distribution. Tonali covered every blade of grass on that pitch. He is my man of the match without a doubt.

Tottenham fans

Laurence: The front line looks very light again, no control, just trading attacks with the opponents and hoping to do more damage than them.

Simon: Richarlison is just awful, Xavi Simons is awful. Tel is awful, we desperately need a striker who'll get in there putting their body in and not bottling it at the last minute like Richarlison does, could've played all night and we'd never score.

Stephen: The result was coming for Spurs. No depth in midfield or up front, so it was only a matter of time before the defence gave way. No Van de Ven, no result.
