Match Threads Spurs v Barcelona - Match Thread

2. Lloris just won the world cup as captain

Made a massive f up in the final too

Kane, Lamela, Lucas and Winks (in the second half) have been good tonight. The rest were absolutely rubbish. What has happened to our squad from the last few years? We look a lot weaker.

Thought Lucas was poor. His touch was off and that chance at the end should have been on target. Need more from him.

Yes, beat PSV home and away and beat Inter at home and then it comes down to goal difference. It ain’t over yet.

But in my opinion I think that dropping down to the Europa wouldn’t be the end of the world.

Id actually prefer it as it is winnable.

 

[Bobbins]

Honestly so disappointed with that ending - we were doing so well, fighting so hard, and it honestly looked like we might steal an amazing draw.

Absolutely gutted, would’ve even been reasonably happy to lose 3-2 given how much fight we showed.

 

[lukadownthelane]

Well that’s the champions league for this season then

If only Danny Rose started today...

Agree. Ben Davies is so so average.

 

[glacierSpurs]

Liverfool lost to a 90th minute goal was my best saving grace for this defeat

 

[theShiznit]

Hugo always looks shaky at Wembley.

Some players have grounds where they don't perform unfortunately if we want to win anything this isn't the place to stink at...

 

[mpickard2087]

Can't really complain with the effort second half, maybe Barca dropped their focus a bit but across the pitch we did put our heart and soul into it and dragged ourselves back into it and gave ourselves a sniff.

At least two of the goals conceded though were really soft, and ultimately against a team like that you've got no hope if you shoot yourself in the foot at regular intervals.

I know it's Barca but this game just shows how far we have slipped since last year when we qualified from the group stage with ease despite being the number 3 seeds.

The 2 goals tonight are just papering over the cracks. And those cracks are getting larger.

Can't see Eriksen signing a new deal.

Missed a massive chance to progress this summer but messed it up.

But at least we'll have the best cheese room in the country. Isn't that what every supporter wants?!?

 

[werty]

Was Vic injured?

Missed him going off.

One challenge away from a second yellow. Couple of times he got in tricky situations and I don't think Poch was going to risk him.

 

[SdB]

He’s not a coward. He’s just very limited. I’d be a lot more of a coward if I got the reaction he gets every time he comes on the pitch

He takes positions where he can't be passed to - coward
Bottles tackles - Coward
Runs around - Great!

Just give him away ffs

I'm not gonna knee jerk over Lloris but I do hope the club is looking more long term when it comes to the number 1 spot. We should have our eyes on the next Lloris.

2. Lloris just won the world cup as captain

And what did he do in the final?

 

[TheVoiceofReason]

Well that’s the champions league for this season then

Win the next two games and we’re back in it. It’s not over.

 

[jonnyrotten]

Barcelona were fantastic. We tried hard and Kane and Lamela did very well 2nd half to rouse us but Barca could have had 6 or 7. Glad we faced Messi competitively, it would have been a shame to have never seen him up against us. Absolute legend of the game.

 

[nedley]

I asked someone what happened for the fourth goal and was told it was Lloris who was at fault. Lloris has done enough to be demoted.

They were both at fault.

 

[TropicalYid]

Most of the lads stepped up in second half.
So dissapointed with Hugos performance.
Sancehz on a bad spell. Needs to play it safe. Needs to mature.

Winks looked like a different player as soon as Dier came on.

Lamela, Kane, Lucas very good performances.

 

[samspurs92]

I’m proud they showed a shit load of fight.

Harry looking back in form.

 

[The Apprentice]

Lamela is so integral now.

Kane was back to Uber-Kane.

Winks was magnificent last 25 mins.

Lloris, Sissoko, Davies, Son, Sanchez were all codswallop. Can’t afford to carry that many under performers
