Before a record crowd in their temporary home for UCL games this season the Spurs were beaten by two hammer blows first half and could not recover.
[Recap: Spurs fall in Monaco]
This is what we have learned in a disappointing night for Tottenham.
MIDFIELD LACK BALANCE
In the first half of the Spurs they were beaten by two fists pumping the French side Monaco, when he scored with his first two shots of the game. In addition to these goals, Tottenham had the air is relatively stable, but the rest was gone in midfield.
Pochettino decided by Eric Dier and Dele Alli as two central midfielders of Tottenham to start and did not work. It was on the ball too low and could not participate in the most dangerous further up next Harry Kane areas. Erik Lamela was in possession too deep for the first goal in Monaco that the center of the entire field was caught too deep and there was a severe lack of cohesion had Spurs chances but could not control the game in the middle of the field.
Pochettino corrected his mistake in the first half, bringing on Moussa Dembélé (his first match after his six-game suspension by manipulation of Diego Costa in the eye last season) and Spurs have reaped immediate rewards.

Alli began was an extravagant mother Muskat, a bold hit volley away and suddenly, it was seen as the Spurs last season came to life. But came after this initial burst of energy after the break, the Spurs could not make the most of it. Dembele looked like a man who has not played regularly in the months, and the Spurs offensive fluid machine clicks starting speed as quickly as it had previously clicked.
It was a mistake to play Dier and Alli together in midfield from the start and Monaco Spurs ruthlessly punished for their early mistakes. Welcome to the big league guys.
WEMBLEY AMAZING
85,011 fans at Wembley Stadium crammed in a record night for Tottenham Hotspur.
This is not only the largest for a home game in the club's history that a home game of the Champions League by an English club was also the largest participation. The noise was deafening, as the Spurs scored during the match and returned as the famous anthem of Champions Tottenham for the first time since 2011 willies.
With the White Hart Lane to just 30,000 fans fell for renovations, it was logical to move home games in the Champions Totteenham few miles north of London.
There was much concern about how the atmosphere at Wembley would be, but it was electric. With their historic homeland of White Hart Lane demolished next summer, the Spurs move to their new home 61,000 depending on the same place for the start of the season 2018-19 is planned. a place for their home games are not even during the 2017-18 season, but these three games UCL smooth opening and Chelsea were drawn far behind in their quest for a new stadium into consideration, but they are also competing stimuli Wembley they have as temporary home.
If the first match of Champions at Wembley Spurs was a bit then go their time at Wembley is not only them with a good atmosphere, but it is a resounding success. "Is there any way you can this ability to 61.000 new stadium expand, Mr. Levy?"
MONACO WATCH REAL DEAL
As much as the Spurs struggled to live the hype, put Monaco in a professional display. Leonardo Jardim had time, his two first downs and were clinically and confident.
It is no wonder Monaco has already won four times reigning Ligue 1 field Paris Saint-Germain in the league this season and are in good standing at the top of the first division of France.
As they in their 3-1 victory at the Stade Louis II in August last year, was breaking Monaco did against PSG, and when they swing at 2-1 to absorb pressure and was always a threat to break. Monaco has not threatened by Spurs went 2-1, but seemed comfortable enough air, the Spurs had to face threats. Besides speculative volley Alli and some deep cross, it's hard to remember Spurs to get a clear view of the target.
Monaco were rolling the last spoilsport at Wembley and win, but deserved victory for his relentless series and showed his experience, when it mattered. A draw was probably a fair result, but after 2-0 Monaco the problem must not force, claiming one victory. Very impressive.
