Having brought an end to four successive defeats with a point against Burnley last weekend, Tottenham Hotspur face another quick turnaround in the fixture list as we are back in Champions League action on Tuesday, heading to Germany for the second leg of the RB Leipzig tie.
The first leg was a mixed affair, if we’re trying to be polite here, and despite our improvement as the game wore on, the fact we only trail 1-0 is a minor miracle.
You can somewhat forgive thoughts of impending doom given our recent form and performance levels, but the simple fact is we have to be a hell of a lot better than we have been if we are going to avoid an embarrassment here and there will definitely be those who are simply looking for positives to take from the game, as opposed to strict progression in the tournament.
Whilst there is a line of thought that says focusing on improvement and our potential Premier League finish should now be our priority, the whole club could do with a boost and victory here would certainly provide that, especially as it feels so unlikely.
We’ve pulled the proverbial rabbit out of the hat previously though – we just have to see if Tuesday is one of those days.
