Sorry, but it'd be good to see some clubs go to the later stages.

Plus, is there not a possibility of losing a place for next season if all our teams perform badly? Could affect Leicester's chances if we knock on the top positions.

The funniest thing I've seen come out of this draw is a spurs fan proclaiming they are a "top 2 side"

 

You mean you havnt won f all

Nah in true UEFA fashion there will be even more of a closed shop at the top, ie, guaranteed 4 teams in each of the German, English, Spanish and Italian top flights from next season (or the season after next).

LET'S ALL LAUGH AT TOTTENHAM

[EastAnglianFox]

A bit jealous of the Spurs group in all honesty, I love what we achieved last season to get to the 1/4's but would have been absolutely surreal seeing Real and Dortmund down at the KP.

[Carl the Llama]

Am I seriously the only one who reckons Spurs and Dortmund are a toss-up for the 2nd spot?

Furry muff, by everyone's reactions I thought they'd drawn something like Real, PSG and Sporting.  

[spacemunky]

Spurs should actually be able to handle Dortmund. They won't, but they should.

[Dan LCFC]

Spurs v Dortmund first game too. I reckon they'll lose it.

[Dan LCFC]

26/9 - Spartak Moscow v Liverpool

27/9 - CSKA Moscow v Man Utd

 

What the ****?

Probably the game that will decide 2nd spot, and they haven't really got a chance to win a few games and get the 'Wembley hoodoo' stuff out of their heads.

imagine trying to get a flight over? getting to Moscow isn't exactly easy as it is let alone two lots of well supported teams trying to get there from the same region. Then add to that two rival sets of fans in moscow at the same time against two team that are also rivals.

 

Yep no problem at all there......

Russian police forces are the answer to the problem. It'll undoubtedly be a stern test for them leading up to the 2018 WC.

Dortmund nowhere near the force they were a few years ago. 

 

Very winnable if Spurs don't choke.

Mate, everyone knows that every other year we win whichever division we're in. Relax, we got this .

Naaaa, get Spurs and Liverpool in the Europa. The more games the more tired of a squad = a poorer season
