Tottenham Hotspur face Ajax in the Champions League semi-finals tonight.
They host the first leg at their world-class new arena and aiming to get a vital victory on home soil to help ease them into the final.
Spurs fans, though, no it’s not as simple as that and it never will be.
In fact, even if you had supported the club just for this season you would know this to be true thanks to their outrageous progression so far.
In their first group games they lost Inter Milan, who came back from 1-0 down, at the San Siro, were beaten 4-2 by Barcelona and then drew 2-2 with PSV Eindhoven, while losing Hugo Lloris to suspension.
Pochettino’s men are made of strong stuff though and despite the ‘bottling’ talk they powered themselves to a second place finish in the group thanks to late wins against PSV and Inter, before drawing 1-1 with Barca.
