:lol:

Roma and/or Spurs should hold their heads in shame if they fail to meet each other in the final.

Edit: just noticed Rennes also managed to qualify. They're also potential finalists and will be aiming to, at the very least, reach the semi-finals.

Below that you have the likes of Feyenoord, AZ Alkmaar, Union Berlin, Slavia Praha, KAA Gent, and PAOK who'll be aiming for the quarter finals.

Also wouldn't exclude LASK or FC København from causing upsets in the KO stages.

Yes, apparently.

    Second qualifying round:
      17 teams eliminated from Champions League first qualifying round
      3 teams eliminated from Champions League preliminary round

    Play-off round:
      5 teams eliminated from Europa League third qualifying round for champions
      3 teams eliminated from Europa League third qualifying round for non-champions
    Group stage (32 teams):
      10 teams eliminated from Europa League play-off round
      8 group third-placed teams from Europa League group stage

Which renders my initial post irrelevant.

Pathetic that Spurs needed Kane to beat Paco's Ferraris or whatever.

This sham of a tournament is going to be a cakewalk for Roma and Mourinho.
