Yeah I prefer the old days when it was knockout too Tony, but what are ya gonna do......

12 days later

Spurs put out a weakened team. Thats not good, I was hoping they'd let this match distract them a bit.

Not exactly that weak, 4 players from attacking positions rotated out for a rest. Dortmund very good value for their big win though.

I reckon Dortmund would have battered them even if Spurs had played their first team.
Pochettino would not want either the fatigue or the negative impact of a demoralising defeat.

Really looking forward to Liverpool United, heading out to watch it just to listen to the slagging and the banter.

Just hope this helps United drop further points and this match as intense as it gets so it tires out both teams.

The Spurs players looked demoralised at the end. It's just retarded he played his strongest team against Fiorentina, only to give up when he sees Dortmund. Small club mentality. Wiegl looked very good for Dortmund. Impressive young player.

It was mostly a first team from Tottenham, which is the worst combination in my opinion. You get a battered morale and a mostly tired first team.

Always enjoy seeing United get beat. Liverpool really should be a few up though.

Weigl is an exceptional talent.

Dortmund are so good.

Can't wait to play this United team. They are so shit.

Have to admire Clarence for being able to block out a game to this degree from memory. 🙂

Liverpool were actually very good tonight, should have scored at least 1 more.
Fergie, sat in the stand, looks like he's been hitting the bottle full time since the day he retired.

He hit it full time before he retired

Bottle of dram for breakfast

We lost to a much worse version of them not even two weeks ago.
