Interesting conundrum for Poch

Well, well, I agree with Grand on this one!
Now, we wait till Thursday to see wot Poch does.

exactly as i said earlier we all will never know the workings of Poch's mind

It could be a chance for some of them to try and redeem themselves. They didn't perform in the first game, but they've got home comforts now and can't let themselves down in front of their own fans.

It's also a chance for 2-3 of them to prove they've got what it takes. All being well, we'll be playing in the CL next season; some of them will have to show they can hang with clubs like Dortmund if they want to be a part of Spurs next season.

After throwing the first game surely he wouldn't have the audacity to needlessly play first team players now? I have a ticket but if I see anything stronger than the below I will be furious

Trippier --- ccv----- wimmer------Davies

Onomah ---------Carroll------------Chadli

That side will lose 3 or 4 nil. But who cares? We already threw the tie.

If we wouldn't get the book thrown of us I would be happy to give Dortmund a call and tell them that we don't wanna play the next leg and they can have another 3-0 win without having to make the trip

If he isn't gonna rotate now then he should play the squad players to keep them match fit for longer

Also he should look at letting some of the squad players play in the under 21 games, even if they just play 30 minutes. Keep them sharp

A few years ago: Spurs 3-0 Inter in the first leg, Inter 3-0 Spurs at full time in the second.

It's very unlikely we'll go through but stranger things have happened. Winning breeds winning and losing might halt any momentum we could start to pick up. I'd play a strong team.

to play a strong team is reckless. what happens if lloris and kane get injured? all for what? nothing.

As much as Id like to go and see the best players on the pitch, fielding a strong line up will be stupid. It would make the line up in the first leg even more puzzling.

Dortmund played today though. They had Reus, Mikhitaryan, Aubameyang all starting.

I don't see why we couldnt have given it a proper go away to Dortmund and have our secondish team best this awful Villa side.

I dont think the club is interested in extending our fixture list though and would rather secure the CL for next year with a small shot at the title.

Rotation will end anyway after this Thursday, if Spurs as expected get knocked out, so whatever team Poch plays it does not really matter, but I would be tempted to go strong, one more game for the best XI is surely not going to kill them, and may give them a win and keep the momentum going. A 5-0 home defeat with the squaddies is the last thing Spurs need just now.

Not sure why you think Spurs only have a small shot at the title, they have a huge shot, and the bookies think so as well.
