That first half was super frustrating. It reminded me so much of many a game during Pochettino's last year and a half - two years, where we did not take "lesser" opponents seriously and ended up making it much harder for us than it had to be.
Bale getting one in the net just before half time was probably a big morale booster that was needed. And the second half was all us and the result ended up being enjoyable. But there have been many a time where we have huffed and puffed like the Big Bad Wolf until the 90th minute to get a winner in games like this previously. It was an enjoyable evening at the end of it but it is a bit worrying that our second string keeps treating the starts that they do get like training games. In the first half it was only really Ben and Vinicius who looked bothered about winning, and Carlos kept running offside.
Also. Credit to Wycombe. They came here to make us work for it and they did.
