It was a goal that booked Spurs into their first-ever Champions League final in their history and provided arguably the most iconic moment in their history. The year in which they reached the Champions League final was the pinnacle achievement of that side although it had demonstrably been giving diminishing returns in that time, even if ‘success’ - measured by top-four finishes and European qualification - was maintained. Their EFL Cup final loss to Manchester City was expected but the manner of it showed the malaise at the club with players appearing to meekly accept their fate. Tottenham charged their fans £60 for the first match back in stadiums in over 14 months - significantly more than any other Premier League club. In the light of the European Super League fiasco and increased focus on senior club ownerships, Spurs fans must be questioning their current direction and the priorities of their board.
