I agree that the gods were against them and I also agree that Crouch being sent off put them further on the back foot (even though it was fully justified). What I don't agree with is that they could do no more and that Arry couldn't have prevented it from being 4-0. He did nothing to change the set up at all, SAF, Ancelotti and maybe even Venger would have come away from that match with a fighting chance going into the retuen leg and Spurs had enough on the bench to do that.

I look forward to the following two 'pearls of wisdom' making their entrance some time today: '' Madrid have some 'triffic players" and ''We face an uphill task''.
Aside from the blindingly obvious I'd like to ask Mr Redknapp precisely why 'attacked minded' Tottenham Hotspur had failed to score in 293 minutes of open play - even before last night's debacle.
It's not an unreasonable question to ask is it?
