Lovely draw. I was at the San Siro last time for Crouchy's winner.

Those big champions league wins live long in the memory. That's a great tie. Can't wait.

You are not going to beat Milan over two matches.

They were two great games. I also remember to two games in the early 1970s with them.

Hopefully I can get to the home tie.

I actually watched Milan at the weekend. I was not overly impressed. They seem rather slow and predictable, and they just about got over the line against Spezia.

Was that supposed to be funny in your head?

Who knows what we'll be looking like by the time Feb rolls around but that's a good looking draw. One to look forward to.

I think that's the ideal draw because they're a massive club but we've also got a very good chance of winning if we're on it.

They were dog against Chelsea but also had a few injuries too. Should be a cracking tie.

Any draw we could've got was always going to be tricky and a step up from the teams we've struggled against so far. Milan are better than Marseille, Frankfurt and Sporting by some distance.

The importance of qualifying wasn't based on some absurd belief we could win it. No, I think it's just an important bargaining chip for recruiting players in January. We're still building so there's no chance of winning it.

Also, aren't they Italian champions? They're not the same side that have been languishing in the Europa League for the last 5 years. They're the best team in Italy last year, above the likes of Napoli who have been tearing up the CL of late. This is a tough tie.

They have some decent players like Leao, Tonali and Bennacer plus Giroud up top who will bully Dier.

Equally matched teams, this tie should make for a great watch

posted on 7/11/22

Hopefully a couple of top class players join before this tie is played

Hopefully Dier will be on the bench by the time the tie is played.

That's a good draw and I don't think we've faced them that much?

Nice to have a big name but not so big they're easily going to knock you out, so Milan fit the bill quite well.

I was hoping for PSG, wanted to go see Messi, Mbappe and Neymar playing at our stadium

If a fully fit Spurs is available I do think we beat them.

A good tie and we should progress.

I also bet Milan are thinking the same thing

Make sure you arrive just before the second half kicks off. That way you won't miss a Spurs attack. 👍
