    Spurs are now all over them, twice as any shots on target and they're still losing.

    Maybe waited a bit too long to put out their best team?

    Newcastle are all over Benfica as well.

    They are missing Bale, Lennon and Defoe. If they had them, they'd be winning this.

    There it is!

    Basel 2-2 Spurs (4-4)

    What awful defending and keeping...

    The away goals rule now in Spurs' advantage. They score another, they're certain to go through.

    AVB needs to invest in a raincoat.

    Spurs all over Basel now.

    And then Vertonghen is sent off for Spurs.

    Extra time in Basel. Finished 2-2, Spurs down to 10 men.

    Extra time for ten man Spurs, not sure if they can pull this off now, they might be down to nine shortly.

    Tough for Spurs now, but I think Dawson as a good game.

    Reading all your thoughts on this is actually quite interesting.

    Have to say I'm with BCC on this one.

    Why are Barcelona the best team in the world?

    Real Madrid won La Liga last season, got the most points in a (correct me if I'm wrong...) 38 game season?

    Yet Barca are the better team, right?

    Vertonghen actually got a touch on the ball, but not enough and it's no surprise he got a red.

    I'm expecting 30 minutes of Basel free kicks.

    Spurs will likely look to penalties. Or maybe a set-piece.

    That was last season, you do know they're 13 points ahead this season, with only eight games remaining?

    They've only lost two games in the league all season.

    But last season, who would you have said were the best team in the world?

    Sorry I now realise the conversation has moved on...

    Just got back from playing football, in time to watch ET in the Tottenham game. Thought Verthongens red was a bit harsh?

    Been a good game?

    Last season, I don't think there was a standout side, club-wise anyways.

    On Basel-Spurs, It's been a very scrappy game. Vertonghen's red did seem harsh though. Spurs have done well considering their 3 best attackers are injured.
