'Watch your tongue please!': Ex-Man United star Mikael Silvestre hits out at Gabby Agbonlahor for labelling Ligue 1 a 'farmer's league' after Tottenham's dramatic 2-1 win in Marseille

Mikael Silvestre has fired back at Gabby Agbonlahor after the pundit referred to Ligue 1 as the 'farmer's league', following Tottenham's dramatic 2-1 victory against Marseille on Tuesday.

Spurs advanced to the Champions League knockout stage and sealed top spot in Group D thanks to Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg's 95th-minute winner at the Orange Velodrome, having fallen a goal behind at the break after a dismal first-half display.

Unimpressed by Tottenham's negativity during the first 45 minutes, Agbonlahor criticised Antonio Conte's tactics and insisted the manager should have been more attacking against a group of 'Premier League flops' from the 'farmer's league'.
