Agree - thought Son had some disappointing moments tonight, mainly dodgy passes that caused a few groans. It's not a big deal to say it as it was. Nobody is coating him off for it.

it would have been interesting to see what he would have done if kane didnt exist? what sort of foward he would have gone for.
Sounds bizarre, can't imagine 4 Spurs fans waiting outside West Ham after West Ham play a European tie.
You say that, but the ref was probably the most influential person on the pitch for them...
they still have a very nice team tho
Kane IS one of those players though. He's always dropping deep and running the channels. He just has that part of him that CAN be the focal point but as shown today, we can get along without him. He's just too good to drop/leave out when needed.
Dont take it personally. There's a lot of touche posters on here. they mean well
Just in.
How bloody good were we tonight? Absolutely buzzing about what is developing at spurs. With a little more incesion in the first half we would have been five or six up. We stepped off it a little in the second half and the little winger they brought on looks a good player but on the whole that was more than comfortable.
Positives for me - Omanah, Njie, Carroll, none of them looked out of place. Lamela hat trick, Wimmer was class at the back and great to see chadli and bentelab returning.
The only negatives for me was Son was wasteful at times. I don't mean to be too critical but he needs to work on doing the basics, because when he does, we score goals. His first touch was sloppy at times but I like his attitude, like lamela he grafts for the team.
Surely that's it for Townsend? Unused sub again.
Oh and the ref was utter dog shit. Everytime a Monaco player went down he could not wait to whistle. Pathetic performance.
Hopefully a good draw on Monday awaits.

Just caught the highlights, not that ITV showed that much! Looked like a good team performance again. The pace of Europa League seems to suit Lamela as he definitely plays well in this competition. Fingers crossed for a good draw. I would be a very happy bunny if Hugo lifts that beautiful trophy at the end of the season.
Think you mean haters, young man ........ otherwise you are swearing at Luton Town supporters!Lamela Hat trick... fuck the hatters from 2014
Anyone have a link to a full match replay? Thanks in advance.
My thoughts exactly mate, so will only add with another thing that epitomised our Spurs side was Dier signalling to the bench that he didn't want to come off, he was desperate to stay on.....fucking love that attitude. Thought Davies was quality also and still not sure about Trippier (he doesn't hide and he works hard just seems to lack quality).
For me Wimmer was MOTM, he is a proper baller, very comfortable on the ball, time and again bringing the ball under control with his chest and playing short one twos with whoever was around him.
I was sat next to a nice Monaco supporter who told me this was their strongest team and we have been the best team they have played this season.

So happy Poch started a few of the younger players-Onomah and N'Jie had great games as did Wimmer.
First half was so fluid they couldn't deal with us at all!
I love the interchanging between all our attacking players these days, I don't even think we've seen the best of spurs this season yet which is an exciting thing in itself.
Pretty much a fully fit squad just in time for christmas (get well soon Pritch) and going great.
I think we are going to hammer the toon sunday I really do.

Big Clint was excellent today same as little Tommy Carrol. I'm very curious about Bentaleb now that he's back. I wonder how he will fit into things.
Bring on the KO stage baby.
How'd Lamela play?
