Yeah this will be one win in 17 against the other big 6 away.
The home form against them is pretty good but that's a terrible record away.

I'd say Arsenals away record is similar against those teams.

The Spurs fans 'march' I saw while having a pint at King's Cross yesterday was one of the most embarrassing things I have seen.

Spurs have been very inconsistent this season
Lucky to beat Palace in their last game
Nowhere near the performances of last year

If you factor in wembley they are doing really well.

Only 3pts behind Man U who are having a great season and ahead of both Liverpool and Arsenal. I'd take that at the end of the season.

Obv the main one, Champions league is much better than last season.

United aren’t having a great season IMO

Alli isn’t hitting the heights he did last year yet

Really stretching it if you using United having a great season as a bench mark.They have been far from great.
United have been ok this season nothing more.

Factor in Wembly is getting a bit old now,will next season be factor in New WHL ?

It's all relative - Compred to the last 4 seasons this is a great start by United.
They haven't achieved a top 3 finish since Fergie but should rectify that this season.

Yeah Ali has been up and down this season but people forget he is 21.
Against Madrid he was class. He just needs to add more goals to his game in the league.

6 champions league goals for Harry now.
Nobody has scored more.

He must be a nightmare to mark as all his goals are so different.

To have 1st place more or less, wrapped up with a game to spare in a group with Real Madrid is something else.

United,City and Chelsea have the financial power Spurs/Liverpool/Arsenal don't so to finish above Real Madrid with those constraints in a Champions League group is an excellent achievement.
Wings? They're only the band The Beatles could have been.

Before their game at Wembley, the Real Madrid fans were saying they really wanted to top the group, so they wouldn't draw an English team in the Last 16 (though they might avoid Liverpool, even Chelsea?).

Mind you, it would be funny if they got their wish and drew PSG instead. LOL

Not quite - CR7 has eight so far and Ben Yedder (Seville) also has six. (Though HK is the highest scoring Englishman. Obviously):

You're right about that one: tonight's goal made it 39 goals in 38 competitive Spurs games for Harry in 2017.

Also 5 goals in 5 competitive games for England (plus 2 in a friendly vs France).

Phenomenal.

P.S. My mate bought Poch's book - apparently Poch says HK has the best attitude (professionalism, commitment, desire etc) of any player in the world!

And Poch has seen every player trainLOL

That said Kane says he wants to get as close to Ronaldo and Messi standards and everyone knows Ronaldo is the ultimate professional and has squeezed every ounce of his potential talent

He really is the ultimate professional.

Has scored 113 champions league goals now. Keeps breaking records and he could go for another 5 years yet.

As a measure of Kane's obsession with squeezing out every little advantage, this story is illustrative:   http://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2017/10/04/harry-kane-employs-personal-chef-pursuit-becoming-one-worlds/

And bear in mind that he probably gets the majority of his meals from Spurs anyway (training, matchdays, travelling etc)

Watched a video recently about a chef who goes to De Bruyne's and Gundogan's houses and cooks meals for them
I'd say its pretty common or at least is starting to become common among the top end footballers.
