Alan Pardew: “We certainly lacked confidence.
“We lacked a lot of other things as well.
“We needed a break in front of goal. The goalkeeper made two or three outstanding saves for Tottenham.
“The overall performance is what is the concern for me.
“Not the result, not the fact we have not scored.
“I will make sure when we play Aston Villa that hopefully that will not be replicated again.
“At least the break gives us the chance to do some work.
“I thought one or two lacked confidence in their game.
“I need to assess that.
“Whether to give them a break, bring players in but certainly we will be analysing aspects of that game.”
