MAN
I love Tottenham so much! and Tottenham fans!
As an Israeli, and a football fan, and everything... It's impossible not to. You're great guys.
But I love Maccabi Haifa more. Since I was 8 years old. Well, it's only natural.
Anyway, I really hope you don't rip us to shreds. Wishing for an entertaining and competitive game. I really want this group stage, especially since we were bad in Europe in the last years and have simply no ranking to show for. There is also a good potential for 3 Israeli teams in this group stage. For that reason I'd be so happy to get there. But I realize the chances are super slim. So I hope to at least enjoy the game.
I think when Maccabi Haifa is good it's always the most attacking and attractive team in Israel. And we're just recovering from a long bad stint.
I think we got lots of solid players and some creative ones, but none will be able to really make an impression if Tottenham will be at their best. So I hope they won't be.
One good thing we have is our new manager, who is a good coach for European competitions. He's the one who knocked Inter with Beer Sheva in the group stage, few years ago, beating them twice and also drawing with Southampton in the process.
