    I've seen completely unfounded speculation that Ange had Son playing through an injury until the injury became unmanageable, which makes him the worst Spurs manager in history

    Which of course is completely different to Saint Poch having numerous players play through injury until what could have been 3-4 weeks of rest turns into 2-3 months out after surgery

    Richarlison and Odobert too. Other than Son. Everyone is available.

    Like you say. Moment of truth, tonight would be a great night for Spurs to turn into the team when Ange first joined

    Totally agree, but then the club needs to get it's messaging right in advance.
    Otherwise it casts doubt on player, coach and club alike.

    But in terms of this club at this stage of what is a dreadful season, this game takes on an importance all of its own - far exceeding a QF.

    We need to start brightly and be on the front foot throughout. Once we started the 2nd half last week like that they really struggled

    So, guaranteed slow start, 3-0 down by half time, then a huge improvement, a couple of goals back but getting a last minute equaliser disallowed by VAR! <laugh>

    COYS!!!

    Wouldn't it be weird if we went 1-0 up in the first five minutes and somehow saw out the game from there?

    I mean we have to do that at some point this season, right...?

    Sweep stake on Frankfurt's first goal. I’m going for 7 minutes

    Well here we are, all more in hope than expectation I guess, maybe a long night!

    We're wearing camouflage kit. Hope that's to try and confuse the opposition and not so they can avoid the wrath of the travelling supporters when leaving the stadium...<laugh>

    Congratulations on your willpower that you have refrained from drink after this season watching spurs!

    I am actually quite relaxed as I expect us to lose. I am so well conditioned now
