Match Olympique de Marseille VS Tottenham Hotspur. Tuesday 1st November. UEFA Champions League. 8PM KO

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

1-0 down away from home at half time in a must not lose Champions League away match at a notoriously tough away ground?

That's not the definition of disgusting imo.

Frustrating yes, but honestly some people need a reality check as to what the expect from the club.

Na mate come on we where appalling it was like watching paint dry we couldn't pass forward didn't have a single shot for 52 mins. Players playing like rabbits in headlights we where very lucky that was 1-0 could have easy been 3

So passive and scared Lenglet himself basically just said that actually

Better teams will put us to the fucking sword playing like that

I would love if we didn't leave things until the last minute. We could've wrapped this group up weeks ago, likewise that we could've wrapped up this game earlier if we just pressed from the first whistle, and not sat back for half the game
 
Truth is we got battered and were fortunate to get the win. They had a number of chances that they should have scored a second off of.

The starting lineup was a joke- Conte got it all wrong. His wingback selections continue to be baffling. I guess it worked out in the end, but good lord it was bad for a long time there.

Somehow we ground it out though. I know it didn't look so bad on the fouling, but our guys were getting beaten up by Marseille. Fucking awesome to see Kane lay it on a plate for PEH like that. And PEH, what a fuggin hit! Even Courtois couldn't have stopped that.
yea conte is making it hard work it seems. some baffling selections. we cant continue like this though, its so mentally and physically draining. bentancur run so much he broke down, this is not sustainable you need to keep the ball better.

but youre not going to keep the ball when you play son and lucas, and wing backs who offer no attacking threat, pesisic does from crossing but he doesnt want to be running up and down that wing for 60 minutes at his age.

Special mention to King "mystic Meg" Dawson for predicting a defeat at Bournemouth and condemning us to defeat again tonight.
Demonstrating an unerring gift of second sight coupled with a thorough knowledge of the game.
