The goal scorers, Deeney and Cathcart.
Now with Jeff Shreves.
And also the win takes away from the fact normally a very, very assured Watford defence, but a moment of uncertainty let them in.
OK, I know you've got a motorbike taxi to grab, but before you go, one last job.
Troy picked up the Premier League man of the match.
Well, Troy says they are big lumps, but are they more than that?
Oh, a lot more than that.
I think it's shown today there's two ways to win a football match.
You know, you've got the silky passing movements of Spurs, you know, and sometimes they like to watch.
Then you've got that never-see-die attitude by a group of players that are very much together, really aggressive today.
You know, for Troy's goal, I think Cathcart typifies the challenge he put in.
I think...
If they could guarantee, this is Watford, if they could guarantee they could keep that level of intensity to their game, that never-say-die attitude, and for them to be really effective in winning games like this, they have to be like that.
They can't take teams on and try and match them for football.
They're aggressive, they're big, they're powerful, they're together, and they've dug out a result today that it's hard to deny them that result because ultimately they had the better chances.
Yeah, they weren't the easiest on night at times with their football, but they make life difficult for whoever they're playing against.
Are they in that kind of mood, unpleasant to play against?
Well, they were, especially the last 30 minutes.
First half, I just thought they just showed Spurs a little bit too much respect as well at times because second half, as soon as they went behind, they rolled their sleeves up and just got into the game and started getting closer to people, getting tighter all around the park, putting people under pressure, like...
Kafka, just winning the challenge down here, typified what they were about.
