So, the final pieces of the jigsaw became clear last night, leaving us with a clear picture of what is next for Spurs.
Being seeded, and drawn away in the first leg, these are the teams we can draw in the last 16 in Monday's draw:
Club Bruges
Inter Milan
AC Milan
Leipzig
Dortmund
PSG
The obvious one to avoid is PSG at all cost, but with the games not played until February, giving plenty of time for our current injuries to clear up, and a transfer window, who do we fancy from the remaining five options ??
Obviously nobody should expect an easy tie, given we are down to the last 16 of the best in Europe ( yeah, media people, that don't include Arsenal funny enough ) personally, I am not too concerned about any of these five.
With a full squad available, none of these teams will consider Spurs a given.
Oh, and to show the full value of our late, late winner on Tuesday, if that had not happened, we would be facing this lot:
Napoli, Porto, Bayern, Real Madrid & Benfica. A considerably harder test.
So what do we think ?
Can we progress to the last 8 ?
So who do / don't we want ?

What's the point of this article, when we all know that UEFA will hand pick liverpool to be drawn against Porto or Benfica and will hand pick us to be drawn against PSG, and then the other idiots on here will still whoieheartedly defend them and insist that the draws are not fixed
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Don't think we can be too displeased with some of the draws we've been given in the past:
- Ajax in the semi final (Liverpool faced Barcelona)
- Leipzig in the last 16
- Marseille, Sporting and Frankfurt in this season's group
- Monaco, CSKA and Leverkusen in a group (which we somehow b@lls'd up
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Wasn't that Poch that b@lls'd up the group with Monaco and CSKA.

How did PSg come 2nd.
They started the night first. They won.
Both them and Benfica ended up on the same points, GF, GA and GD, and in the head to heads it was 1-1 both times.
How did they split them?

Ridiculous. Every club feels hard done by. We're no exception. If it were some widespread conspiracy do you really think we'd be in a group with Frankfurt, Sporting and Marseille. Liverpool had Napoli, Ajax and Rangers.
There is no fix fella. It's all in your head.

Bruges or either of the Milan clubs, don`t fancy PSG or the Krauts.
I see Pool come up smelling of roses yet again, they have a 50% chance of drawing Porto or Benfica.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
It's not exactly 50%. They have more chance of drawing Bayern because the germans can only draw 4 teams.

As long as Spurs are at full strength, I don't really care. PSG blow hot and cold, so would be fine if Spurs draw them.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
If we get PSG it will be when they are blowing HOT.... you know that.
The big IF is ..."As long as Spurs are at full strength".
What are the odds of that?
Of course, you could argue that we should play PSG because at least it would save our faces when we go out, to be able to say we went out to Messi, MBappe, Neymar & co. But what would the score be?

Rangers and Ajax aren't as good as the teams in our group, which include the Europa league winners that beat Rangers. That;s why Liverpool qualified before us despite being 7 places behind us in the league.
It's definitely not all in my head, because I know for a fact that SteveF and sandy agree with me. Just because you can't see what's going on, doesn't mean that the rest of us can't.
