Math for qualification:

Current standings
Spurs - 8pt
Sporting - 7pt
Frankfurt - 7pt
Marseille - 6pt

Spurs Win:
-Spurs finish 1st in group

Spurs Draw:
-Spurs finish 1st with a Sporting/Frankfurt draw.
-Spurs finish 2nd with a Sporting or Frankfurt win.

Spurs Loss:
-Finish 3rd regardless of results in Sporting/Frankfurt. If Sporting/Frankfurt end in a draw I believe the final standings would be Marseille(9pt.), Sporting(8pt.), Spurs(8pt.), Frankfurt(8pt.)

Good news is that Spurs are somehow still top of the group.

Bad news is that their last match is away at the Velodrome against Marseille.
I'm so ready to be up 1-0 in the 80th minute and lose 2-1.

Bissouma is starting to look like his Brighton-self. He's a fun watch, limbs everywhere.

Just want to go on record that Emerson may be the least talented Brazilian I've ever seen with the ball at his feet.

Do you not remember the Paulinho years?

But really, Emerson is painful to watch in attack.

Never in doubt. He'a going to score a hat-trick against the USMNT in November unfortunately.

But really, solid 2nd half performance. I thought Lenglet was serviceable in the central CB role. Him and Davies definitely struggled in the air against Moore and Billing though. Everything looked much more composed once Dier subbed on.

Ray Hudson audibly moaning in disappointment every time Marseille misses a shot is going to drive me nuts.

And yet no card after getting a shoulder to the face.

Yeah that was a violent foul.
Son is going to be out for an extended period now as well.

Holy over reaction.

Spurs aren't playing well, but between players being out and Marseille being a juggernaut in the Velodrome, this shouldn't be surprising. Plus Conte is historically bad in Europe.

Nah, we spend the first 45 minutes every week playing like this, regardless of the location or opponent.

True.

But to call for Conte's head over it when Spurs are having their best start to a season in years is just wrong.

What the hell does it take to motivate these guys? Most important game so far this year.
