* The away league

Spurs win away while playing...not very well. We talk Palace, praise Danso and Archie, worry about Porro, and ask how a team can be top of the away table yet so dreadful at home.

Frank gets pelters for diminishing out EL victory but Eriksen insists Thomas is The Man.

There’s debate about one-footed footballers, modern players falling over too easily, shots from distance becoming extinct — and we announce the winners of Julie Welch’s book for the best Spurs story.

As ever: mildly baffled, oddly optimistic, and deeply Spursy.
