    You've jus t repeated much of what I said. If we had your killer instinct, you'd have been three down by the hour mark...

    Furthermore, we could claim that Giroud should have scored at least 2 and we should have won 3-1

    Jesus!! How many times do I need to agree with that before you get it...

    We had you on the ropes and should have finished you off...it's a failing, I have admitted numerous times!..

    He should of buried at least one of them, he had some great chances to win it for us.

    You agree you created **** all and defensively looked poor in the air and presumably you didn't miss the multiple opportunities we had at the end of the game which resulted in you time wasting to keep a point? If you agree with what I'm saying, which you say you are, then surely you agree you were lucky not to lose it in the end?

    Spurs bossed most of the game (despite not creating that many clear cut chances), but as soon we scored, they just gave up on the win and started to run down the clock and were happy enough with a point. Is that the old inferiority complex kicking in or what?

    Meh .. no more than you saying we could have been 3 down by the hour mark. You didn't take your chances, neither did we. Could have been 3-1 to either side really, a draw was probably about right in the end.

    And if we had Bayern Munich's efficiency and work rate, we'd be blowing everyone out of the water.....So saying 'if we had this' isn't exactly a reprieve for you, it's exactly why Spurs are where you always are, below the top 4 and other top clubs.

    You've got to admit though, looks like promising times for Spurs now they have a manager who vaguely knows what he's doing. Top four? Maybe. They've gone and at least matched a supposed title contender away.

    Given how **** Chelsea are this season, Spurs could take 4th.

    Yep, it's there for the taking, Chelsea are done, and Liverpool have way too much dross in their squad. Maybe Everton or someone like that might be their main rivals for that fourth spot.

    I wouldn't say it was an inferiority complex. Wasn't like they were mindlessly hacking the ball away. Good game management if anything having very disappointingly given away a goal having looked comfortable.

    They never looked comfortable in defence, every other set piece and cross into the box had their defence scrambling.

    If we had the killer instinct, you would have been three down. We were that dominant!..

    Fair, to a point. Yes, once you got the equalizer our thinking probably changed a bit, but I think tiredness played a part too. Nearly all of those players played a tough game against Anderlecht on Thursday night!
