Match Europa League - Tottenham Vs LASK, Thursday 22nd Oct, 8pm KO.

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Easy win. thought Lucas was good as was Doherty, PEM superb again, Vinicius looks promising and thought Dele and Son were good when they came on. With a few touches Bale and GLC both class. Harts handling was good also. I cant believe the depth of our squad
 
Maccabi were better even though we knocked 7 past them. I don’t think I saw a single good move from the Austrians. And when your opponents don’t even try you never leave 3rd gear
It was actually a bit surreal how passive LASK were. With how little they attacked, even while losing, it was like they had already made a decision to throw the match but to keep the score respectable. I'm not saying that's literally what happened, of course, but it may as well have. And yeah, Maccabi were considerably better.
 
Wow that was just like how you want every EL earlier games to be. Professional application from everyone, clean sheet, steady 3 goals, good debuts, rotation.

And lastly, no fucking Kane has to come on to save our asses or just because he wants to have a crack. That's right Harold, you sit down and enjoy your healthy ankles you!
 
Skewed stat.
It’s possible poch did rotate, he just didn’t name Kane on bench.
Besides Kane has had some big injuries in that time and spent months having a rest.
Having injury is not the same as rest. When you come back from injury it is more difficult to get fit and sharp. When you're sharp and fit, keeping up with training and conditioning, while doing rotation and getting low intense game time is more comfortable than outright sitting out and then doing heavy training to get back into top form.

Reggie and PEH very good. Davies decent at lcb. Everyone else solid if not spectacular. I thought our final ball in second half very poor and players kept running offside. Were attacking in numbers which is good.
3 scored clean sheet job done

Yep. Antwerp will be a different opera. A better side with some dangerous players.
 

Brilliant news. Play our cards right in the next couple of EL fixtures and we might be able to rotate super heavily for Europa in the following fixtures:

Man City (H)
Ludogorets (H)
Chelsea (A)
LASK (A)
Woolwich (H)
Antwerp (H)
