Good riddance to Spurs. Theyve been atrocious

I’d like to say Spurs are going out with a bong. But given the slackness of their performance, it would almost be more appropriate to say going out with a bong. But let’s not.
put down the bong

Dortmund 8 Legia 4

presume that's a record?
― Number None, Tuesday, 22 November 2016 21:40 (seven years ago) link
Feyenoord beat KR Reykjavík 12–2 in the first round in 1969–70. This is the overall record for all European Cup/Champions League matches.Borussia Dortmund beat Legia Warsaw 8–4 in the group stage in 2016–17. This is the record for the Champions League era.

two maybe three decent performances since late April is the kind of thing that generated non-whimsical '[Spurs manager] out' talk back in the day, just sayin

I didn't watch the game but the expanded squad options have really fucked us. Even without injuries Poch has been rotating into systems for which we are manifestly unsuited. Also I miss Toby. When is he coming back?
― Matt DC, Tuesday, 22 November 2016 23:45 (seven years ago) link
I've been pochouttino for months but let's be serious here he's earned a lot of goodwill and he's not near spent it all

The Lamela injury hasn't exactly helped either - he's had some subpar performances this season but he's a sorely missed creative spark with Eriksen so out of sorts.
Guessing we'll deliberately tank the third Wembley game in order to try and avoid the Europa now. Hardly £150 well spent in any case. There's a lot to be said for reverting to last year's XI (give or take a Wanyama) as soon as we can.
― Matt DC, Wednesday, 23 November 2016 00:21 (seven years ago) link
Poch out is premature but starting a must-win game with Derby, Wimmer and Trippier at the back is straight up negligence. The whole CL campaign has been an embarrassment. It has been the holy grail for years and when achieved taken with the same seriousness as a Europa away leg vs Qarabag. It hasn't just been inept, it has been pathetic.

I'm starting to wonder how bad his falling out with Vertonghen was, and whether something escalated ahead of the game. Vertonghen has been poor in the CL but that back line was a disaster even on paper. His selections haven't made much sense throughout the tournament and it has looked like he's been resting players for Premier League ties the following weekend.
― Matt DC, Wednesday, 23 November 2016 11:03 (seven years ago) link
Yep, that's the assumption the TV commentators were working on as well - Vertonghen and Walker were being rested for the Chelsea game at the weekend.

Amazing early games - my boy Azmoun inspired Rostov to a 3-2 win over Bayern, Besiktas came back from 3-0 down at half time to draw.

Rte showing celtic AGAIN. game prob picked at start of the group tbf
― Neptune Bingo (Michael B), Wednesday, 23 November 2016 20:03 (seven years ago) link
SV, did Bayern just throw the game or? They sank us to fourth. Which is probably for the best, to be out of Europe entirely. Already cant wait for this dreadful season to be over for us tbh
― Le Bateau Ivre, Wednesday, 23 November 2016 20:09 (seven years ago) link
(Not taking anything away from Rostov btw, they have been impressive against Ajax earlier, just a bit uneven at times)
― Le Bateau Ivre, Wednesday, 23 November 2016 20:10 (seven years ago) link
No, Bayern were on top for most of the game and Rostov scored with pretty much all of their shots on target. It's a bit of a fluke but Bayern were ok.
― Bubba H.O.T.A.P.E (ShariVari), Wednesday, 23 November 2016 20:12 (seven years ago) link
Good on Rostov though, they've made their mark and won't be a one day fly I think.
― Le Bateau Ivre, Wednesday, 23 November 2016 20:30 (seven years ago) link
Benficas third goal was hilarious: they hit the crossbar, right post, left post and then scored.

How are they getting this much space on the break? Should be 1-2.

weve no fullbacks defending, one cb and hes not really too bothered and wanyama isnt even covering very well.

been ok so far but the lack of any option for walker to pop a quick ball to feet in to son, alli or kane seems a glaring flaw

Thinks that's a cracking draw. Aside from Juve and Atleti who I expect to progress and PSG vs Barcelona for what seems like the fourth year in a row the other 5 ties actually have me interested.
