Re: UEFA Champions League 2017/18

Thanks Chef.
Where is Maribor?

In Slovenia. We played them back in 2014, they were tough at home but we spanked them in England.

Ok so not far to travel. Not as far as Russia. We get another crack at Sevilla, all in all pretty good group.

What's your thoughts Chef?

I'm happy enough with our draw, we play to our potential and we'll go through.

Atletico is our competition to top the group(would have liked a different 'big' opponent as we've faced them a heap lately).
Roma aren't great atm and shouldn't bother us too much.
Qarabag are an interesting one, haven't faced them before so thats fun. But England to Azerbaijan is as long as an away trip can get.

Cracking 1-2 win by Chelsea over Atletico at the new Wanda Metropolitano. Batshuayi with the 94th minute winner.

In a tough group this win could be huge.

They said that we were in the group of death and we would struggle to get past perennial champions leaguers Real Madrid and Boursin Dortmund. Tottenham Hotspur, the first team to qualify for the knockout stages. 4 points of Real Madrid in the group stages in clouding inflicting their first defeat in a group stage since 2012.

Spurs proof that you don't need a budget the size of a afirst world country to compete, just a manager prepared to innovate and a team prepared to listen and work hard COYS!

Re: UEFA Champions League 2017/18

Blimey , the champions league threads seeing some traffic. Great result for spurs, but real in a bit of a tailspin at the moment
Tottenham had their big chance 2 years ago to win the league, but they bottled it
