TOTTENHAM have been trolled by rival fans after retweeting a video of Spider-Man star Tom Holland's recent interview.

The 25-year-old was asked who he would want to see in the Champions League final.

The British actor chose his favourite team and Brentford, which is the club his uncle supports, even though none of them are in the competition this season.

But he later admitted that Tottenham would probably lose to the Bees based on current form.

Holland said: "I want to see Tottenham play Brentford.

"Tottenham is my team and Brentford is my uncle's team and probably right now we wouldn't beat Brentford but I'd fancy our chances."

The last part of the interview led to a number of ironic responses from different fans.

Many of them poked fun with usual jokes about the north Londoners missing out on silverware since the 2008 League Cup.

One fan tweeted: "Explains the webs in Spurs' trophy cabinet."

Another posted: "Even Spider-Man isn’t confident that Spurs can beat Brentford. Oh what a time to be alive."

A third wrote: "Wolverine's weakness - magnets, Superman's weakness - kryptonite, Spider-Man's weakness - Tottenham Hotspur."

This fan said: "Spider-Man far, far away from a trophy."

And this fan stated: "Spiderman, Spider-Man 2, Spider-Man 3, The amazing Spider-Man, The amazing Spider-Man 2, Spider-Man homecoming, Spider-Man far from home, Spider-Man no way home...

"Spiderman has more titles than Tottenham."

Tottenham endured a turbulent start to the season that has seen them drop to ninth place in the Premier League table after five wins and five losses in 11 matches.

That led to the sacking of former manager Nuno Espirito Santo and the club's hopes have been revived after the arrival of former Chelsea boss Antonio Conte.
