Ange quotes Billy Joel as he tackles Spurs set-piece critics

- MIKE WALTERS

ANGE POSTECOGLOU channelled his inner Billy Joel to answer critics of Tottenham's set-piece frailty - and declared he is an innocent man.

As Spurs put their dwindling hopes of Champions League football next season on the line at Stamford Bridge, Big Ange raided the Piano Man's back catalogue in a vivid defence of their progress this season.

Tottenham have conceded 14 goals from setpieces this campaign, including six in the last nine games from corners - sharing the fifth worst record in the Premier League.

And rivals Arsenal were the latest to take advantage in last Sunday's 3-2 defeat in the North London derby.
