Spurs failed to clear Chris Baird's throw in the final minute at Craven Cottage and Diomansy Kamara's scissor-kick dipped over Paul Robinson to earn Fulham a point.

Jol told his players exactly what he thought of their defending after the 3-3 draw in a match where they were leading for most of the time following Younes Kaboul's opener.

Dimitar Berbatov added the second but Clint Dempsey's header from a corner kept Fulham within sight.

"At 2-0 we should have scored the third and the fourth, we didn't do that and conceded from a corner," said Jol. "It's awful to see that.

"You can't concede goals like the third, from a throw-in. We have to cut out these mistakes, they make it difficult to win games.

"I can't say we are unfortunate all the time but we have to defend better. If it is a wonderful attack with lots of one-twos..... but a corner-kick?"

Jol's position at Spurs has been under scrutiny since the infamous meeting between officials and Sevilla boss Juande Ramos, and a win would have eased some of the pressure.

Victory looked assured when Gareth Bale raced through to make it 3-1, although Jol then took off skipper Robbie Keane despite setting up two goals.

"Jermain Defoe was very hungry in training and I thought he could do something," said Jol. "Robbie didn't have the best of games despite making two goals. Most of the times if comes off but this time it didn't.

"You could see he was unhappy but he better be (happy) because he's my skipper. He knows Defoe is an important part of the squad, and so is Darren Bent."

Jol also brought on Michael Dawson, just back from an ankle injury, as an extra centre-back.

Fulham chased the game with four forwards and Alexey Smertin's deflected strike got them back in the contest, with Kamara's acrobatics saving a point.

"Fulham fans don't expect to beat big teams like Arsenal, but they expect the side to give everything they have got," said boss Lawrie Sanchez.

"The Berbatovs and Keanes of this world are at the top of their game and there will be times when you are out of it. But it showed that hard graft can get you some reward."

Sanchez was one of the busier managers on transfer-deadline day but only Dejan Stefanovic was cleared to play.

"There has been a lot of changes in the summer," Sanchez said. "I felt it was necessary and I said to the board that we needed to rebuild.

"It had gone a bit stale and I needed to change that. The board have backed that. We spent money, recouped some and we'll spend more after Christmas."

He added: "It's a new era. It's little steps at a time like this."

And after their three defeats this season came from late goals, Sanchez added: "If I was a Fulham fan I wouldn't be leaving the games early. We rode our luck but credit to the players."
