If we have to give this much thought to these teams, God help us when we play a decent team, especially if those Muppets from last night play again.

I'd rather show these guys the door and buy some who do want to play for our team. ABSOLUTE DISGRACE.
Last year Ludogrets came 2nd in their group to qualify for the knock out rounds with 8 points, but all the rest qualified with 9+ points (one or two clubs did nor qualify with 9 points) just depends on how the results/points are distributed in the group).
Last night was about as bad as it could go for us and as good as it could for the other team and they still needed a horrible individual mistake to win the game 1-0. Sure they had other chances that they flubbed but that is why they finished 4th in Belgium last year and have a recent history of squat.
It was certainly a frustrating game but if anything it should show why we should go for this Cup. We played as bad as we could and still came close to getting a result against the biggest threat we have in the group who were playing their best.
Next time we play try not to have 3 guys who would have been as effective had they stood on the sideline all half and we come away with an easy win.

We'll get an exemption hopefully
Come 2nd in the group and face someone falling out of CL
If Bulgaria allow us in.
They don't have it in Bulgaria
All the more reason why they wouldn't want people coming in from here.
It was a joke !
With 4 group stage games played Spurs have the second most attempts made in the competition with 75. And we sit in 4th in attempts on target with 25. Hoffenheim top both those stats. We are 6th in goals made in the group stage and also 6th in passes made.
Thinking about the fixture schedule we have.
We need 1 point to qualify from the group. What happens if we finish second in the group? Can we get drawn against a CL dropout?
If no then worth playing total 2nd team on both games against Antwerp and LASK.

If we finish second - we will be unseeded in the R32 draw - can draw anyone expect other English clubs
Qualified teams:
Tottenham
Antwerp
Roma
Woolwich
Slavia Prague
Bayer Leverkusen
