In theory Spurs still have a chance to sign:- Pele; Diego Maradona; Michel Plantini; Johan Cruyff; Franz Beckenbauer; Paolo Maldini; Cafu and Zoff. Not much of a chance admittedly., but a chance all the same. Its also a bloody wonder the press are not linking Spurs to discrete moves for the late greats such as Moore and Puskas. Providing we the fans keep making the distinction between who we would like at the club from what is possibly, we have a chance of remaining relatively free from mental derangement.....
The Portuguese coach said: "I know in England I am loved. I am loved by the fans, I am loved by the media, they treat me in a fair way, criticising me and giving me credit when I deserve it.

Anyone fancy Barca for a comeback tonight? Real Madrid came close and had their chances. I think Bayern will be too powerful, too experienced and too savvy to give Barca any chance.
As good as Barca have been,i don't think they are the force they were 2 years ago,so i don't think they will be good enough to come from that far behind,they seem to concede goals as well ,and Bayern only need one
Perhaps Barcelona's previous coach was something special and it wasn't just Messi this and Messi that all the time.....?
I reckon an agonising 5-1 home win. At home, on a pitch they've prepared and if the World's best player turns up, who knows. It's a big ask of course but I think they'll make a game of it.
