Jol on derby defeat

MARTIN JOL was disappointed with his players' effort following Tottenham's 3-0 north London derby defeat against Arsenal on Saturday.

Although all three of Arsenal's goals were controversial after being awarded two penalties and another goal which was offside, the Spurs players did not look like they were up for the challenge of playing their local rivals.

"The two penalty decisions, I think, were wrong," Jol told Sky Sports News.

"The first one wasn't a penalty and the second was maybe handball from Van Persie.

"But I can't complain about that because normally you have some pride if you play well or create four or five chances like we did against the other big teams.

"We didn't do that today, so what can I say? I can't complain about that."

He added: "We have to grow up and develop a good team. We have to get results with this team, that's what we said to the boys as well.

"If you can't compete and don't have a lot of determination in the English league, you can't play here."
