OMT Spurs v Dortmund

[Gazza]

How has sissoko become Edgar davids, Messi, iniesta rolled into one?

Just when I thought poch couldn't do any more miracles...

 

[Hootnow]

What teams are likely to go through to the quarters?

Through

Spurs
Ajax

Likely

PSG
Atletico
Emirates Marketing Project

Up in the air

Porto/Roma
Bayern/Liverpool
Barca/Lyon arguably but I'd back Barca realistcially

 

[PochettinoPochettinoPochettino]

Did he watch half of each or just the first leg?

He was there for all 188 minutes.

 

[Baleforce]

City, Barca the only sides left in the competition who we'd have a slight inferiority complex against?

We destroyed Barca last time out, could easily have finished 6-1 to us.

 

[90291Spur]

BT with all this 'fortunate to go in 0-0 at half time'. If it were Manure it would be resolute defending.

 

[Hootnow]

City, Barca the only sides left in the competition who we'd have a slight inferiority complex against?

City, Barca, Atletico, PSG, Bayern and Liverpool would all be rightly favourites vs us in a two legged tie imo but I wouldn't really fear anyone too much.

A mention for Davies too tonight. Often goes a bit unnoticed unless he has a poor game, but he kept Sancho rather quiet tonight and put in a very good shift.

He's just magic, not Jesus. Jesus is his assistant. THAT'S how magic he is!

 

[Mikey10]

Ferdinand is right up there with Joe Cole for shi.t punditry.

 

[glasgowspur]

Just seen the goal, Sissoko showing Eriksen how to slip a pass through.

And it would have been nonsense if people were saying that. We were hanging in there. Some top defending at times, but we conceded a lot of chances.

To be fair though this Dortmund side put 4 past Atletico. And I think the commentators said they've scored two or more in every league home game this season. Struggling to cope with them is par for the course really.

 

[Cochise]

Tottenham are the first North London club to reach the last 8 of the CL since Tottenham in 2011.

 

[Robspur12]

I still love JJ. And I am even warming to Start

 

[billyiddo]

will have to watch it back but their chances seemed to boil down to being good/great shots rather than particularly being clear-cut opportunities that they should be putting away

Absolutely, thought he was top drawer tonight. Apparently finally clear of an injury issue that he has had for over a year.

 

[Raziel]

Job done .. without any real panic ..

People will mistake a well managed game for parking the bus, we knew exactly what Dortmund were going to do, and countered.

It was clear we were looking for that one counter attack, Son & Kane both had earlier opportunities ..

Mature performance ..

 

[Bedfordspurs]

What teams are likely to go through to the quarters?

Ajax
Barca
PSG
Bayern
City
Atletico
Then Porto or Roma

 

[Jordinho]

Scouser logic: Dortmund losing to Spurs clearly proves that Bayern is the best team in Germany.

 

[Kandi1977]

Now then.

1st leg at home. Could be our first match at the new stadium
2nd leg at home might throw a spanner in the works to that idea

How do you come to that conclusion? I'd say it's the other way around.

Davies was very very good
sancho thiugh looks knackered and like a kid who has never played a full season
