We're not good enough to win the Europa League.I'd be delighted if we won the EL. Proper big European trophy. Better than the League Cup. PLUS, it's a route into the CL.

That one season where we used to blitz teams was the best thing I can remember about supporting spurs, actually being able to enjoy games with 25 minutes to go. I would say it’s probably less energy consuming doing things that way than scraping a lead and then trying to hang on for 25 minutes.
I'll be happier when the cheese room is unveiled.Chaps please go over to YouTube and look at brand spanking new club shop, the biggest in Europe may I add.
That'll chear you up ?
Give PSV a spanking for us.Feck it guys I'm off to play Fifa 19 ???

Give PSV a spanking for us.
Fullbacks and midfield aren't good enough. Fix those and you fix a lot of the defensive and attacking issued. Club won't spend or promote youth though so it's going to last
On what evidence do people think we will even sniff a EL win?
Yeah, we just bottled it against a shite PSV, but no worries we’ll win the EL. Who won it last year, Athletico who? We’ll shit ‘em.
Watched five minutes of Liverpool now, I made the comparison for us with Chelsea and Arsenal the other day, throw them and City in as well, but just look how quickly these teams move the ball compared to us, at one or two touch, lots of runners and people on the move, and done with clarity of thinking. Most of the passes/passages of play aren't even remarkable, but do it at enough tempo and you still cause opposition defences problems and don't let them set. There is also a base level of urgency in the play.
I think, even when we've had better seasons than some of these teams, that our pass and move and one/two touch play has been weaker in all truth than other teams (but our collective and overall play has meant it doesn't matter, we win in other ways), but right now whilst we struggle to find form the differences are showing up even more.
I'm not saying we will definitely win it, but that doesn't mean I agree with you by saying at this point in time that we are definitely not good enough to win it per se. If we qualify for the knockout phase by finishing 3rd in this season's CL group stages then we have a chance, and I'm not prepared to just write our chances off.We're not good enough to win the Europa League.
I quite like the idea of us winning the Europa league
Just finished watching the game on catch up. Haven’t been this pissed off watching Spurs in a while as I have been watching today and the game at Inter. So frustrating.
I’m sorry, but imo we won’t win anything with this team.
We have the talent to do so, but there is still something lacking. It’s been a feeling I’ve had for a while, but these matches just cement the thought. There is a lack of ruthlessness and killer instinct and too much casualness and lack of concentration at key times.
We are miles better than PSV and better than Inter too, but at 2-1 we just slow the tempo, think the job is done and then switch off.
You can pinpoint individual mistakes, tiredness or whatever, but it’s a collective thing and runs through the squad imo.
We'll lose to Basle on away goals after being 23-0 up with 2 minutes remaining.
