Tottenham missed a golden opportunity to get another three points on the board in their Champions League quest following a 0-0 draw with Eintracht Frankfurt on Tuesday evening. Heading to Germany on the back of a 2-0 defeat against Sporting CP in their last European game, as well as last Saturday's 3-1 loss in the North London Derby, Spurs needed a win and a performance to go with it.
Many expected Antonio Conte to make a couple of changes in order to freshen up his team following the defeat against their fierce rivals but he instead opted to name the same XI. Perhaps giving the 11 players another opportunity to deliver an improved performance, his decision didn't exactly sit well with a number of fans ahead of the encounter.
He did make his feelings clear on his selection when speaking to BT Sport and revealed his reason for keeping faith with the side. "I decide to pick the same 11 players. I trust in these players and I think this is the best solution for us today," he stated.
