With their absences, really think we can put this to bed tonight. 3 goal lead going over would be great.
Seen a lot of Bodo fans over the course of the day around where I work near Liverpool Street. All in good spirits. Looking forward to being at the stadium myself shortly!
On paper we should definitely steamroll them, so it’s just about how much Ange’s tactics and management holds us back. Having **** all to play for in the league should also add extra incentive to turn up tonight. Outside of our first years back in Europe when it was still the UEFA Cup, we’ve often treated this comp with a real lack of respect because we were so fixated on trying to finish 4th in the league, certainly not the case now.
One suspects they will simply defend hard today to keep the scoreline respectable for the second leg. And we all know Spurs are poor at breaking down defensive teams. But I’m confident we’ll somehow reach the final!
Tried all week to get tickets...at 4.15 today my eldest had a last go...and got 2 (£51 each) in safe standing area...on our way now. COYS
Look at his post match interview from that. It has a very familiar look. Same cough, no eye contact, intakes of breath and general excuses. Levy’s biggest mistake as chairman was employing this bluffer.
For the first time in what feels like forever, Spurs have approached this competition with a win it or it’s a failure mentality, it’s been refreshing rather than just celebrate making the last 4 etc.
Gotta be honest, I'm not loving that line up. Being kind, it looks light on creativity. If it plays Ange Ball, we're in trouble. Let's hope they have an off night and we get the breaks...
