Gnabry certainly looks quality but let's not forget his man marker tonight was Aurier. :ROFLMAO:

How did he stay on the pitch?? Pochettino should've hooked him at HT.

Pochettino needs to take responsibility for that result. Subs of Eriksen,Lamela and Moura were too aggressive with 20+ mins left.
 
They signed him in 2010 but he couldn't join until 2011. Sold in 2016. Didn't make an appearance for them after 2014 though.

Do love how Arsenal fans on social are claiming this win as a success for them. Embarrassing result for Spurs, but they're still going to get through their group of a competition Arsenal didn't even qualify for.
 
Didn't see the Spurs game but did they really give up as said? I heard Potechino was sat in his seat for ages during the game shaking his head and looking towards the board members seated in the stand. Definitely seems to be something wrong behind the scenes and they look devoid of ideas or guidance on the pitch.

Yes, worryingly there seems to be massive issues behind the scenes. It's disgraceful and embarrassing and needs resolved.
COYS

Great manager
Financed a new stadium
Competing now on all fronts with restricted finance
Players stalling on new contracts
Threat of losing best players
Maybe can’t now attract best players
Greedy players and agents
Other teams with seemingly unlimited finances
Fans now getting on managers back
Speculation about managers future

sound familiar?

Poch made plenty of mistakes in my opinion. Although with Aurier, we've stupidly left ourselves with no other options in the summer. I think he wants Foyth to be first choice RB but he got that long injury which scuppered the plan.

The next mistake was playing a narrow diamond formation which leaves Aurier one on one with Gnabry all game. He honestly was never within 5 yards of him, it was ridiculous. And I agree with you, when we got back to 2-4 with the penalty, he seemed to throw the kitchen sink at it and left us wide open. Winks had a really poor game as well unfortunately, which swayed the midfield battle in their favour.

The only small caveat is that Bayern's finishing was so, so good. They only hit the target 10 times, to our 8 times. Lewandowski's two finishes were absolutely top drawer as well as Gnabry who gets the headlines of course.

Didn’t see the game..... they looked devoid of ideas or guidance on the pitch🤣

For the first 30 minutes Spurs played the best I’ve seen them this season, I’ve said before Spurs don’t look right this season, worring how we capitulated in the second half.

Big problems at the moment.

If it wasn't for the line "competing now on all fronts" you could have been talking about Arsenal. :-)

There's something in this (though it grieves me to say it). Spurs missed a couple of chances early on that were better than pretty much every one that led to a Bayern goal.
I wonder if bayern will still be this good in the spring? Their last few seasons have started brightly but fizzled out come the knockout stages. Rather like psg, playing in a non-competitive league isn't great prep for the pointy end of the season.
 
Only watched the 1st half of Spurs v Bayern, enjoyable pacey open end to end game and I thought Spurs had the best of it and were unlucky going in 2-1 down, me telling the boy without Ribery and Robben Bayern weren't all that.
What the heck happened 2nd half?:eek:
Still cant see Bayern winning ECL this year, be any of Juve, Man City, Liverpool or the 2 Spanish giants.

Talking about their performances in the last few games that I have seen on TV. Didn't see last night but so much said on TV and in the media about Poch and whether seems to have lost the belief of the players or there has been some sort of falling out behind the scenes. They definitely seem a shadow of the side that got to a CL final

We didn't come back out for some reason. o_O
