Match Spurs v Bodo/Glimt (A) - Champions League - Tues 30th Sept - KO: 8pm

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

With Rom out and Palh having featured several games in a row now, I feel like Frank will switch it up more for this one.

Again i have to bust these narratives like I did last year...

50% win rate in European comps...they lose at home often but if that's your definition of that then yeah :D

IF we are on form & don;t fukk this up it'll be fine - if we comepletely fukk this up then yeah...

Bodo/Glimt Bodo/Glimt I'm not being harsh but man be like you lot are Home wins 70-80% in European comps...I aint putting you lot down cos you did make it the Semis! People chat like they know your team, I do not I just go off the stats & provide evidence :D

You're not busting anything when you're looking at shit data fella. I mean, unless you think results from over 25 years ago are somehow relevant?

Instead maybe look at the results list here and discount anything older than 2020 when they re-entrered Europe after a two decade absence:

FK Bodø/Glimt in European football - Wikipedia

en.m.wikipedia.org en.m.wikipedia.org

They suck away from home, but at home they have 79% win, 18% loss (39 games) with only one defeat coming by more than a single goal... against us. Their 1 goal defeat at home to Woolwich came from Woolwich's only shot on target in the match. Their extra time defeat to Ajax was a match Bodo dominated 25 shots to 9.

Their wins have included Roma (6-1!), Lazio, Porto, Celtic and Besiktas.

Should we be favourites? Probably. Should we swat them aside? The results suggest that isnt the case.

Ok Shit data??? your Wikipedia doesn't even cover home vs away...

Use the drop downs for each comp with years you ninny! This response proved you didn't even click my link so go you I guess...in my link instead of dismissing the source...

Here let me help you - The best HOME record was in 2021/2022 in the conference with 100% (good comp for them) but in the same comp it dropped by 50% to 50% in 2023/204...Ohhh wow lets check their Europa League experience omg look at that
in 2022/2023 only 33% HOME wins and again last year? geeewhizz golly 75% good comp remember they got the the SEMIS!

again the link it's very handy!

Also I've crossed referenced them with wikipedia & wow SAME DATA! just this is easier to go from per year, per comp with a good breakdown also some nice graphics too!

Never say we should treat them any less but this whole narrative of them being 'good' at home in European competitions isn't true they're OK at best due to them being inconsistent nothing to fear unless we shit the bed!

Old TFC proverb say "when hands are full of shit, stop clapping - don't clap harder". You should pay heed.

And no, son, you dont have people like me on your staff. Bless.

The facts are Bodo are good at home - certainly good enough not to be dismissed as an easy win.

Yes we employ 2 data scientists who work on our Hadoop DBs lol

I didn't dismiss it as an easy win - I've been agreeing with you on that the whole time...

oh maybe wash your hands more often innit before clapping, it would help ;)

anyways enjoy the game dad :D

Any reason why we can’t dominate the ball? After sll
Look at our players and how much they cost. They will have 9 Norwegians in their team. If they can keep the ball better than our expensively put together squad then may be we should just sign their players up.

Last time we played them, I seem to remember that they had a lot of it.
We are set up to counter attack more than attack, long as it yields results i don't mind, its our home form that is weak.

Data science is my discipline, not my job title fella. Like Gordon Ramsay is a cook.

You started off replying to me to "bust a narrative" and telling me that they often lose at home. So, if you were agreeing with me you had a funny way of showing it.

Anyways, yeah - enjoy the match. Any kind of win would be a huge step towards qualifying for the next stage.

I actually like this lineup a lot and think it should operate well against Bodo. Would rather Gray get a start ahead of Benta but I feel like Frank is cautious and won't start without either of Palh or Benta in CM.

Bergvall to sub in for Xavi as soon as the game is secured, if it gets there...

Bit of a step change but wanna see midfield runners and hold up play into feet from the front

I’m quite bored with our attacking play so trying something different! What’s the definition of madness again!!
