Tottenham Hotspur Thread

It's like being constantly caught in a time warp

He’s clearly off in the summer, fit and left at home last night was as big a statement as Poch could have made.

There will be no shortage of takers for him in the summer, quality defender.

As for the game last night it was very very enjoyable for the whole 90 mins, don’t say that for many games these days.

Spurs were absolutely excellent and dominated a side that had conceded 1 goal in 16 matches and they deserve huge credit for that.

2nd leg should be a cracker, very hard to call.

Mauricio for Old Trafford please

Or do you simply base your comment on the opening minutes instead of judging the game over 90 minutes like most rational people do after seeing Spurs putting in one of the great Champions league performances- typical of the current Tottenham team ! Steady on. Spurs still have the second leg to balls this up and they will. Like they always do. Do you plan on losing more money on that ? See you lost on tonights bet

Cashed out at 2-0 

I thought they would have brought on Trippier after Aurier got his booking. He was having a torrid time. Trippier will start in the next leg though.
A sign of a very good team to come back from 2 down however they got that bit of luck with the penalty miss. It would have been very harsh on Spurs to go in at the break 3-1 down.

It was great to see Spurs go at them, there wasn't going to be a defensive wall or containment of Juventus. Dembele was the real driving force behind Spurs who looked very nervous at the start particularly after conceding the early goal. He wasn't afraid to get on the ball and take control of midfield.

Dier a bit of a weak link.

So Spurs will need to sell him by the end of this season if they want a higher fee. And knowing Levy he'll push for the maximum....Personally don't think he is really top class. He couldn't get in the Atleti team a few years ago. From £12m to £50m+ in a couple of years for a head it and kick centre half shows you how rotten to the core football is.....    And I see that De Bryne insisted that his contract with City is to be paid in Euro. Clever fella..
