    Anyone enjoy anything other than the last 5 seconds of that. Hard work, but credit where its due they fought hard in that 2nd half.

    Lenglet's English is very good, even if he made up a couple of words.

    It's very frustrating RCL. Clearly it works but I don't like it.

    I totally agree...and don't get it...the football at times last season was a joy to watch but the last month or so has seen some dour football.

    What a performance. Well done spurs!

    Bentancur was excellent. As was Lenglet.

    tbh I have always found European tournaments frustrating. You have referees who interperet the game differently, you have cynical fouls that are not punished. This goes all the way back to the 60's Greaves Spurs were kicked off the park. I am not saying Marseille were bad compared to some but we gave them much more respect than they deserved IMO.

    Who’s the more legendary Viking, Ragnar Lothbrok or Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg?

    I hate Barcelona with a passion cos in 1982 they came to WHL in the semi final of the European Cup Winners Cup and were allowed to kick us off the park ... was an absolute disgrace

    Oh, Lloris had an excellent game too. A couple of vital saves in the first half and bossed the penalty area.

    Lloris interviewed...
    "We didn't play well during the first half. Maybe we didn't know what would happen if we attack. It wasn't good for us to play this type of first half."

    But it's every fecking game, Hugo! <doh>

    Guendouzi really isn’t very good, is he? Not hard to see why we let him go. I never understood why Arsenal fans rated him so highly. What does he excel at? I still don’t know.

    The less said about Kolasinac and Tavares, the better…

    I can’t believe I had to watch these bozos at my club for so long.

    They’re Marseille’s problem now.

    Hojbjerg Hardrada is more apt I say.
