About always getting eliminated from CL in last 16.
They could now get eliminated from the group stage.... again.
Hopefully real CL clubs like Arsenal and Chelsea will be back next season to save our coefficient, rather than imposters like Spurs.
And they still can’t fill Wembley!!
Didn’t Spurs used to mock Arsenal...

Recently Spurs have played better in Europe than Arsenal and at times equal to Chelsea in Champions League.

Simply not true. Neither Arsenal or Spurs have reached the CL Q/F's since 2010, we've had three Q/F's, one semi exit and won the competition in that time. So Spurs are inferior to us and equal to Arsenal.
In Europa during the same time frame, Spurs have entered it either three or four times and never gone past the quarters, ourselves and Arsenal have entered it once each (twice including this season), Arsenal made the semis and we won the competition.
Spurs are dreadful in Europe. That could always change in the near future but for now that's the reality.

OP
Wembley was absolutely full, other than the poor turn out from the Barcelona supporters.

I do miss the CL, but since we won it we haven't looked like winning it again, atleast we have a chance of winning the europa, which i'd rather than having lost 2 games in the CL.

Spurs beat Real Madrid last season in Champions League at home and played well against Juventus last srason in last 16 stage and were unlucky to not knockout Juventus.They have tended to play well in Europe v big teams in UCL but tend to get unstuck in matches against the smaller clubs in Champions League.They have appeared in UCL for the last 3 seasons but both Chelsea and Arsenal have not played there in the last 3 seasons.

Chelsea were there as recently as last season. We got out of the Group and hit the woodwork 4 times against Barcelona before losing.

Again not strictly true. Last season was their best European participation since Redknapp made the CL Q/F in terms of performance, but that was the exception.
The year before they fall at the group stage convincingly and lost to Gent in the Europa (a very realistic chance to win something). And prior Europa appearances only AVB's run stands out when they beat Lyon & Inter I think it was on route to getting knocked out in the Q/F.
