Champions League 2019-20

Spurs are fortunate to be winning this. I'm glad Olympiakos got their goal just before HT as it's kept the game alive.

[Suzie the Fox]

Penalty?

 

[Suzie the Fox]

Yes!!!!! 

[spacemunky]

Spurs being Spursy.

[ScouseFox]

A lot of players missing from the PSG/Real lineups today.

 

Neymar, Mbappe Draxler and Cavani out for PSG.

 

Modric, Ramos, Isco and Marcelo out for Real.

 

Of course, if you look who's still left to play for both, it's still pretty damn good.

[StanSP]

Jenas needs to stop saying Olympiacos fans have been quiet all game. Far from it. 

[deejdeej]

Why oh why do we have to listen to Jenas during Spurs games and Mcmanaman for Liverpool. 

[Harry96]

Would love someone like podence here on the wing. Attainable too. Kind of player we should be looking at, highly rated from his youth days.

[Dan]

Tottenham honestly aren't that good are they?

Can't believe they've kept with that for another season. Absolute toss.

PSG v Real Madrid with some of the most unacceptable kit crime ever. It's worse than crime this. PSG in all white, Real Madrd in all blue. Disgrace.

Now you’ve gone and done it 

[Wymsey]

It must be very frustrating to be a Spurs fan, tbh.

A talented squad, yet aren't able to maintain their decent starts.

Pochettino knows this, but often finds excuses to hide away from this mentality issue.

[Finnegan]

End of the day, the personality of a team comes from the manager. Especially when they're there long term. Doesn't matter the quality of the manager. 

 

Pep's teams are always patient, determined, composed and relentless. 

 

Warnock's teams are always solid, aggressive, dirty, hard working. 

 

Mourinho's teams (before he lost the plot) tend to be arrogant, confident, infused with an everyone-hates-us siege mentality. 

 

Simeone's team is hard working, competitive, stubborn. 

 

You can do this for Klopp, Pearson, Pulis, it doesn't matter who. Managers tend to cultivate a personality in a squad and look for players that fit it. 

 

That Poch has been at Spurs as long as they have and has pretty much single handedly helped to grow and sustain a reputation and proven track record for bottling it and being mentally weak is just very much on him. He's obviously a soft man, he even sounds like a soft man when he's sat there making excuses in interviews. He's been there long enough to recruit a team of composed, hard working winners even if it was in him but apparently it isn't. 

[Finnegan]

You can tell I chose the Atleti game because PSG have scored two already. 

[ScouseFox]

this geezer called tyson for shakhtar looks wicked 

[StanSP]

Bale just scored a beautiful lob but will be disallowed due to handball.

Keown says its unlucky . Absolute pleb.

The latest in an absurdly long line of Brazilian imports to Shaktar. 

 

It's mad how much Brazilian talent they've brought in to Europe.
