Tottenham Hotspur disappointed upon their return to the Champions League last night, losing 2-1 to Monaco.

The defeat was even more frustrating considering it came in front of a record crowd at Wembley, who had anticipated a glorious return to the competition.

There are still five games to go, and there is still reason for Spurs fans to be upbeat about their chances of progression.

Former Tottenham stars Micky Hazard and Graham Roberts chose to focus on the positives, praising the impressive support.

Roberts also took a dig at West Ham, with The Mirror reporting how there was in-fighting among fans at the weekend.

Tottenham’s next Champions League fixture is away to CSKA Moscow before another home match, against Bayer Leverkusen.

They will want to record at least a win and a draw in the two matches if they are to stand a realistic chance of progressing to the knockout rounds.

Their next match is this weekend in the Premier League against Sunderland on Sunday at 4.30pm at White Hart Lane.
