Couldn’t give a fuck what other people are saying, that was a gutsy performance and a deserved point. Missing 5 potential starters. Christ man can you imagine our squad when everyone is healthy? No depth? Fucking morons.

1 GK Hugo Lloris (captain)
2 DF Kieran Trippier
3 DF Danny Rose
4 DF Toby Alderweireld
5 DF Jan Vertonghen (third captain)
6 DF Davinson Sánchez
7 FW Son Heung-min
10 FW Harry Kane (vice-captain)
11 MF Érik Lamela
12 MF Victor Wanyama
13 GK Michel Vorm
15 MF Eric Dier
17 MF Moussa Sissoko
18 FW Fernando Llorente
19 MF Mousa Dembélé
20 MF Dele Alli

2 of those guys wouldn’t even make the bench.

Still got that number 8 shirt ready for somebody in January as well.

Yep, Sissoko covered for him pretty well I thought.

Yeah, he was impressive in defence and linked well with Aurier and Winks. His ball control is still Bambi like at times but I'd say that's his best performance for us. Amazing that he chose to do it against RM.
Outfield player was Aldertonghen with a mention in dispatches for little Harry.
MOTM was Hugo but the whole defence was outstanding.
Also impressed with Harry and Fernando. I'd like to see that pairing again.
A great night - to be proud of as a Spurs supporter.

Well, yes, I suppose I am. To paraphrase Churchill: ‘If you have to kill a man it costs nothing to be polite’.

I'm not trying to kill anyone Joe. I love the guy to bits, but it was sad to see him look so lost and estranged from what was going on.
He set the bar high and I was really hoping that he would use this as the key point to exorcise the ghost of Modric.
Modric was magnificent though.

I think our team gave everything and performed as best they could however.....

We clearly missed Wanyama and Dembele, and had they not been injured, we could have won.

Winks, as hard as he tried was outclassed. With the defence, goalkeeper and forwards making up for the light midfield.

Lloris - amazing 10
Sanchez - rock solid 9
Aurier - gave penalty but solid under immense pressure 8.5
Aldeweireld - 8.5
Jan - fantastic game 9
Sissoko - came into it 8
Winks - tried hard but lacked bit of composure at times. 7
Eriksen - Didnt do enough, bad touches poort decisions 6
Dier - had to defend 8
Llorente - did well 8
Kane - needed service 8

Rose - great to have back 10 for turning up

Winks played brilliant. Not sure how he was outclassed. Against a team like real Madrid as well.
 
Can you smell the gooner fear?

“Looks more like an own goal to me.

Annoying, we need a Kane hat trick so that Real take him and Potch next season.

Hopefully some navas howlers so they take De Gea too.”

I don't know how any of you can even watch the punditry when Spurs are on, you're just angering yourselves by doing so.

The only reason I know what the likes of Ferdinand, McManaman, Lampard, Hargreaves, Murphy, Shearer and wheoever else say about us is because it's posted on this forum. I make sure I purposely don't listen to their shit because they can't handle the fact that a team that pays the wages we do, with the lack of "world class talent" like we have are seemingly better run and more of a team than any of those teams around us.

Given your wannabe pundit qualities I am surprised you don't look up to them.

It wasn’t Christian’s best game I admit. Thankfully the players around him put in a shift. Good times Mick.
 
All played well tonight except for eriksen. Thought he was poor.

Sanchez was excellent. As were the rest of the defence.

Seen a lot of people digging out llorente on twatter. I didn't think he played bad.
 
Very happy with the point. Very poised display. If we moved the ball quicker I think we would have had more opportunities but that’s about my only quibble. Hugo was immense. Cat like.

One thing on the TV here. When Jan went down and Ronaldo got a yellow, the commentator was going off on Jan as a serial play actor. Wtf? Ok, that was a bit much on Ronaldo, but I’ve never considered him one for dramatics. Someone must have adjusted his operating system back at the robotics lab.

Ok enough of that.

Fuck yes!
