Met them on the Eurostar back to Belgium after the game. They were going back for the international Matches. Had a good chat with Dembele, top bloke. Asked me how my Flemish was, which was embarrassing as I mumbled a few words back to him!

You lucky devil.

The nearest I got to a chat with a Spurs player was David Howell's brother asking me to book him a taxi.

I'm glad we signed them both, seems like they are best mates and hopefully helped them settle in (not to mention both awesome players)

Had their wives/girlfriends with them and possibly Verts mum & dad. Surprised they wore their Tottenham track suits, hardly incognito!

Yes, with their Duvel and Kriek and 100s of beers.

Gosh, I'd be like a kid in a candy shop over there. Time for an excuse to go to Belgium.

Go to Brugge and drink Tripel beer. Hmmmmmmm good times.

For a boring country, Belgium does offer the glutton in us a veritable smorgasbord of delights; Crepes and Waffles covered in sickly maple syrup, fat fried frites dolloped with huge globs of Mayonnaise, exquisitely crafted full-fat chocolates, all washed down with super strength beers brewed by Trappist monks who should know better.

Have they a team in the Europa league??????

I watched the second leg against Real in a bar in Brugge drinking absolutely delicious, fiendish beer. Next morning I couldn't remember anything about the game except Gomes fucking up and that we should have had a penalty.

Newcastle have got Club Brugge in their group. The Geordies will probably go over there and moan they can't get a bottle of dog.

What you want is some good ol' kasteel bier... small sizes.
You drink 4 or 5 because they taste superb and they're not pint sized, so what's the harm..., you notice nothing other than feeling very warm and good about how great the beer is and then when you go outside to leave you take a good whiff of fresh air and collapse as your legs have lost all ability to do anything.

The stuff is great!

But beer full stop in Belgium is superb and so many varieties! Living in Brussels was so so, apart from the beer which was epic.
