Tottenham, the only Premier League club to have spent absolutely nothing in last summer’s transfer market, are Champions League semi-finalists and Manchester City are not.
Let that sink in. This was a defining night for Spurs against a side who have racked up a net spend of more than £350million under Pep Guardiola.
The night after Ajax shocked us all by beating a big spender in Juventus, who signed Cristiano Ronaldo in the hope of winning Europe’s elite competition, Tottenham did the same to City to seal a last-four clash with the Dutch side. It shows it’s not always about the money.
