Only Spurs rush in: it's the UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE 2018/2019 thread

if these lads were any good its three all tbf

or if hugo were playing

ok son didn't apologise after that one, good

This might be incorrect but I’m not sure Crvena Zvezda have conceded more than one goal in a match at home since 2016.

moderately guilty lols from phenomenal Norman Hunter-esque reducer by 12-year-old Skipp near Red Star's box in the 93rd minute

came on for the last five just for the experience, wound up being var-checked for a red and escaping, great work

Lol at Bravo being sent off

great game, Foyth was standout if not necc MOTM but nice just seeing us look like playing isn't some sort of punishment

ndombele and lo celso excellent and alli, son and rose much better for them

absolute scenes at gala bruges

two sent off after a last minute (beaut) equaliser

second yellows for taking jersey off and kicking corner flag

Deserved lead for Olympiakos.

Spurs are really struggling.

Two nil as I type that.

This is a disaster.

drag em jose

rose is toxic

dier off

should or could be dele or rose

enjoying this v much tbh what a nuts way to let us in again

lol at the var call against psg

Yes, that was hilarious.

so clearly a foul there im just roaring laughing

aurier with a throwin, my gawd

Even a couple of weeks ago we would have given up here.

Aurier with a thunderbolt!

Lovely goal

trying different things in pass length, dele dropping back for second ball from headers, dele wanting it to feet from the centre halves

lots to like but individual competence has been awful tbh!

hows that not red

GOAL - Tottenham 3-2 Olympiakos

Serge Aurier

Comeback? Completed it mate.

Serge Aurier finishes it beautifully at the far post, cutting across it with the outside-of-his-boot ala Benjamin Pavard.

But less about the goal and more about the assist, it is fabulous work from Dele Alli, standing a defender up, upping the pacing then picking out his team-mate at the back post.

Jose Mourinho already working wonders with the Tottenham squad.

Can't watch the match but the last bit surely is hyperbole? Smdh

Boom!

Never in doubt.

idk man, some things have looked worse but individuals look to have been given a lot more licence also, can definitely see changing decisions all over the pitch

Dele in particular looks like a different player.

Well I'll take it from you over the Nult Kru. 'Working wonders' just sounds like a stretch when yr playing Olympiakos.

xp

Also about to win two games back to back for the first time since April xps

(hopefully)

dele had a terrible first half (along with son) but i think its going to take a while for them to realise that they can make different runs and choices out there again.

former looked unplayable at times in that second half

Nah its fine I'm sure Mourinho will find a way to strangle the life out of them soon enough.

eriksen playing like himself again

serious indictment of pochs effect on players over four years if he starts to play to his ability again and alderweireld signs up

yeah it's more like Mourinho hasn't had a chance to exert his influence on them yet

possibly

pochles off anyway

waiting for var to decide that that second psg goal didnt actually go in tbh

This new Mouriniho is rather unsettling

i tend to agree that it cannot last, danny rose would turn anyone, let alone mourinho on a knife edge

He is much more interesting and compulsive now than he was at man u and regular viewers may know I'm a liverpool fan who was enjoying him running them into the ground. You just dont know what's gonna happen here. Maybe as a man who learns from his mistakes and matures he wont suddenly chuck it all in but... it's interesting waiting for it

The guy is charismatic what can you do

Dele's been improving with each game since coming back into the team but was shite for most of the first half here. Aurier plays very well 85% of the time & is scapegoated often to avoid pointing the finger at Alderweireld imho. I'm tentatively positive about Mou so far, simplifying, calming, encouraging. Who knew? Was horrible how anxy they were till the soft 1st Spurs goal.

I mean the best thing about Mourinho has usually been his ability to make quick, decisive, game changing substitutions and with the exception of CF we will usually have a strong bench.

Eriksen's performance was heartening as well.

What's Levy's plan with Eriksen? IS he still hoping to sell him off this January, or has he accepted he'll walk out on a free next summer?

still offering terms i think

im not bothered by the difference between a pittance and a gap in jan vs free and a replacement in summer tbh

this spurs board...

americans, pool fans, glory hunters, where ya at this wednesday?
