Bayer Leverkusen v Tottenham Hotspur

[imitationleather]

Why exactly are you picking on Onomah? He came on in the 90th minute ffs.

Calm down I'm not picking on him. It was just clearly a running the clock down substitution.

 

[Furball man]

Such a frustrating draw considering our first half. We really need to learn to take our chances and kill the game off early.

Either way, a point is better than the loss. Keeps us second and with a good chance of going through.

After the next match thread can you start the threads from now on

 

[Nikesh]

We're becoming a 1st half team, which very worrying

If we win these first halves. We'd win the games. Wba and tonight.

 

[Gatsby]

Good thing is having 2 home games next.. Annoying thing is they're not at The Lane.

If our CL games where there this year I'd say we'd win all 3, but Wembley seems a hoodoo for us recently. Fingers crossed this hoodoo breaks!

I guess we have to convince ourselves that a 0-0 away in the CL is a good result... (it would be if we hadn't lost our home game!)
As it is... this group is gonna be as tight as a gnat's chuff... which when you consider the opposition... doesn't bode well when you think the likes of Real, Barca & Bayern will be in the knock-outs...

Still... we're here, we've earned our right to play in the competition... so we've gotta make the best of it.

The next two home games are crucial. The phrase 'Must win' was invented for these games!

 

[Fidel Castro]

What was surprising was that Dembele and new french geezer had no impact or influence .

 

[dannydelacruz3]

Calm down buddy.

I hate the fuck. That he's paid to give his opinion galls me immensely. Did you see him on crystal maze? Jesus wept.

 

[existenzrippchen]

Dire. Toughest game in the group though. 5 points in the next 3 games and we will top the group so lets do this.

[Oracle]

2nd in the group with two out of three away games played, I'm embarrassed.

 

[kingdawson]

Trippier, Rose and Wamyama were all excellent.

 

[SchmoodSpur2013]

I always like to give players time, but I just don't get his signing, he isn't that good.

It's because the Levy haters we're wetting their nickers about not getting their deadline day signing.

Anyone will do they said. Just spend money!

Idiots.

 

[ArcspacE]

It was a fair result in the end

Second half we were dire

 

[Raiders]

2nd in the group with two out of three away games played, I'm embarrassed.

Mate we get it

 

[Bjorn Synnes]

I think we should add tedious no-risk possession based play to our repertoire when we are being outplayed like this 2. half - we were constantly chasing shadows and couldn´t find a moments pause

 

[SchmoodSpur2013]

Calm down I'm not picking on him. It was just clearly a running the clock down substitution.

So?

We needed it. We were getting battered, away, in Germany and it was still 0-0.

Taking that point will be key.

Leverkusen coming out and getting on the front foot contributed to how we played but not sure we couldn't do the basics in keeping the ball and being patient with creating our chances.

 

[Jay Ban]

I don't know what's worse, Lamela and Eriksen playing poorly with poor crosses and consistently losing possession or Dele and Son being nonexistent during the entire match.

 

[Fattynomates]

Lets win both our home games, and we will be sitting pretty!

 

[Carrots and Peas]

Poch better give them the hairdryer. That 2nd half was nowhere near good enough. We were very, very lucky.

Never seen us so sloppy.

Lloris, Wanyama and Rose only one's to really come out in the positive. Even they had heir moments.

Win both games at Wembley and we're through. Imperative.

I thought the whole back four were alright. It was our attacking players in the second half that couldn't keep the ball and take pressure off of them.

I quite liked how Leverkusen played actually, bit like us with their pressing and quick attacking football. Their manager will soon be snapped up I reckon.
