We asked for your thoughts after Wednesday's Champions League game between Eintracht Frankfurt and Tottenham.
Here are some of your comments:
Martin: A great night again in Europe. This begs the question: why don’t they do it in the Premier League games? Let’s hope this is not yet another false dawn!
Jakko: Decent performance against a very average team. This result is literally papering over the cracks. Even when we get a result it’s so hard to enjoy it because it’s painful supporting Spurs over the past years.
Bob: A well-deserved victory through effort and belief – magnificent! The goals will hopefully start to follow in the league from now on.
Michael: Brilliant. In the face of adversity, Tottenham have battled through to the last 16. I wish some of our supporters would lay off Thomas Frank for a game or two, but I doubt they will.
Kevin: The team played very well but they need to carry that into the Premier League. Clearly the Champions league is not as physical and that has suited us – especially Randal Kolo Muani, who has been awful domestically but turned up in this game. The 3-4-3 formation, reverting to a 5-4-1 when defending, has looked more progressive, though let’s see if it is effective against Manchester City.
Kim: Spurs fans need to be patient. You don’t improve from 17th one season to European qualification the next. We’re now through to the last 16, which means two fewer games to play. Hopefully we start to get players back from injuries and make some progress, however slow it is coming.
Dan: I can’t fathom how we’re such a different team in Europe and such a shambles in the Premier League. We’ve finished above a lot of European giants and I don’t think we’ve conceded at home in this current league phase, yet we can’t beat Sunderland at home. Ange Postecoglou rested players but Frank hasn’t got that option. But, it’s such a stark difference between weekends and midweek. We’re braver, have runners creating options, we look like scoring, we seem calm under a high press – but come Saturday, panic sets in and we look scared to even try to play football.
