Yep that nostalgia of not winning jack shite...that holds a lot of weight as compared to winning all the cups.

good. frick those new money assholes.



Not sure I understand this quote, and yes, Spurs need to be better in Europe. They had a great draw last year and didn't capitalize. This year they are going to have to do some real work to sniff the knock out stage.

They progressed out of the group last time they were matched up with the reigning champions, so i'm hoping there's a chance

Let's not pretend like BvB is so much better than Tottenham. Spurs certainly have more depth and are better defensively. That said, Dortmund matches up very well with Madrid. RM hasn't won a game in Dortmund in 6 tries and finished behind them in the group last year. Definitely going to be the most entertaining group. Can't wait to see Pulisic light up Wembley

Win for BvB at home (duh) and a draw at Wembley is my guess.

It'll be interesting to see what game(s) Dele Alli is suspended for.

I'm just hoping that them selling Dembele to Barca is true. MAYBE that boosts our chances vs them a bit more.

When it comes to playing in Europe, they most definitely are.

Zenit can't get back in the UCL soon enough.

However, Dortmund has proven to be significantly better in European competition over the last 5 years. Until Tottenham shows me something, I have no reason to believe that changes now.

As a Spurs fan, even I agree with this 100%.
(Even though we had a shot to win Europa league in 2013 until Adebayor decided to take a penalty)

In all fairness, Dortmund shite the bed and Real has been on a pretty bad run of form.
