Very annoyed that only BT Sports 1 is on Virgin Anywhere, not BT Sports 2. This means I can't watch the match on my phone, the missus having monopolised the TV tonight for the Eastenders fest. Will have to listen on the radio.

You can't stand for that! Eastenders over Spurs? WTF? :eek:

That Fiorentina coach looks like one of Elias' hit men on 'Person of Interest'... but it's cool Soldado's starting... this is the one!

@BenPearceSpurs: #thfc Likely to be a 3-5-1-1 system from Fiorentina. Spurs struggled with Liverpool's width when they played three at the back last week.

Those crazy Italians!

The problem against Liverpool was that they played wingbacks and wing forwards, which left our fullbacks, particularly Rose, left 2 vs 1 at times. Tonight, if they line up that way, would be different. Danger is getting outnumbered in the centre of the park.

Okey Paulinho i have my doubts about u but no better time to show me wrong. Shoot us to the quarter-finals pls!

I'm not his biggest fan by a mile, but I think his style would suit Italian competition, which would not only work in our favor here but I like the opportunity to market him in this one. And more than anything, I'm just glad Poch has stopped this nonsense with him at AM.

You have to be joking.

You can not stand for that.

Eastenders instead of Spurs?!

What the Fuckity fuck is that about...?

I'm seriously disappointed in you.

We can't play peoples favourite players in every game, this is why we have a big squad.
To me it´s not about that, we have a chance to go through the quarter finals, so we should play our best side to give ourselves the best chance.

Let's just trust poch's judgement. I know virtually nothing about how this team plays.

The thing that worries me, is that Fiorentina pack the centre of midfield and I fear we will be over run with Paulinho in the CM. Fingers crossed he proves the doubters wrong.

Think Paulinho can be really good this game. Against an italian team the tempo will get a bit slower, will suit him good!
