Yes Dublin in 16 rome in quarters 

How is there a last 16 when there are only 24 teams in it to start with? Is it top 2 in each group then the 4 best 3rd place teams? Seems harder to get knocked out the bloody competition.

You do have to try very hard to get knocked out. Over a year of qualification plus 2 weeks of a tournament and there's still 16 teams left in it.

It will surely end in him winning the League Cup, finishing 10th two years running, alienating Spurs fans, walking away with another huge pay off and turning up at Arsenal 6 months later pointing to his league cup as proof that he's a "winner".

You deny he's a winner? FFS just look at his record. I am sure if he delivers a trophy of two to Spurs they'll be erecting a statue of him outside of the new stadium.

As they are my 'London team' after the Muamba incident, I hope he is an outrageous success for them.

Good luck to 'em if they win, I'd love them to be at the Euros.  

You and I are from different planets. Pay back in kind. They want us to lose every game we play.

Long may they fail.

Only reason I'd want them there is so we can knock them out 😁

Used to be a winner when at top clubs.  Not in recent years.  And I dont think he's managed a club that wasnt already a top 4 club in that country so he cant be judged like a Dean Smith or Eddie Howe or Wilder who've taken clubs from nowhere and made them successful.  I'm not criticising his early/middle career at all, just going off what he is now, and the juries out. On a smaller scale Pulis, undoubted top manager of recent times, nobody would touch him now.  Mark Hughes, Van Gaal,  Martin O'Neill, Pardew, Moyes, they used to be good and nobody's going to take that away from them, it doesnt mean an ambitious club wants them now.  Just my opinion but Spurs should be going for a more progressive manager to suit their brand of football.  But bring it on, its going to be a great soap opera.

If I was Scottish, or Irish or Welsh, I'd want England to lose every game too.  I'd hate us, because we are bigger, and more successful and get all the ridiculous over the top hype and publicity every time there's a tournament (just talking football, but it could be widened to social and political etc, not going there).  Like Bury hate Bolton, I dont/didnt hate Bury, as long as they stay below us.

Different strokes matey. I want Ireland, Scotland and Wales to lose at every fucking thing. Northern Ireland - different story.

They were all wanking themselves daft over that leeds manager last year. Wilder's done twice the job..

That’s because he’s a red fan and they have none. I honestly think in the bottom 2 divisions, momentum takes you a long way but what do I know
