With Eusebio drawing eight fourth-tier teams into each group, the Champions Cup group draw ceremony has come to an end!

For the results of the group draw this time, the British media and fans can be said to be mixed. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 The good news is that Arsenal, Manchester United and Chelsea are in the three Premier League teams in the overall strength of the group, and it is basically not a problem to get a qualifying place;

Although these clubs are rivals and even rivals in the domestic arena, when it comes to European competition, the Premier League teams and their respective fans are still very collective, and there will be no deliberate demolition of the stage. Therefore, after learning that Tottenham Hotspur was unfortunately drawn into the group of death, Ferguson and Wenger and others expressed their blessings to Tottenham while deeply regretting the result.

"Is it their misfortune that Tottenham are in the group of death? No, no, no, in my opinion, Juventus and Bayern Munich are the most unlucky, because this Tottenham team is now strong enough to cause them huge problems! In an interview with reporters, Mourinho adhered to the habit of not talking shockingly and endlessly, and gave Tottenham a very high evaluation, "I believe that under the leadership of coach George Nelson, Tottenham will be able to stand out and get a ticket to the last 16 of the Champions Cup in this group of death!"

As one of the most talked-about figures in the entire European football scene, Mourinho has always been the focus of the media because of his repeated unexpected words and deeds. Therefore, it was only natural that this statement of the Portuguese was moved by the media to the next day's newspaper as quickly as possible. And the result of the media doing this is also very obvious, and the fans of the other two clubs are strongly dissatisfied with this, and they have denounced the Portuguese, thinking that his attitude is too arrogant - Tottenham, what capital can compete with Juventus and Bayern Munich? At most, it is to compete with Ajax for third place in the group and mix up a ticket to the UEFA Cup!

However, Mourinho clearly doesn't care what others think. For the Portuguese, who has always been reckless, it is far more important to say what he really thinks than to please the fans who have nothing to do with him.

At the same time that Mourinho was once again causing controversy in European football, George's party, who should have been at the center of the conversation, quietly returned to London by plane to prepare for the next game. You know, although the next week is a national team break, with many players in the Tottenham squad needing to leave to play for their country, there is no need for George to start pre-match preparations so early.

However, the crux of the matter is that in half a month, the Tottenham players returning from the national team will have their first Champions League game of the season. Therefore, in order to grasp the initiative to qualify in this group of death, George must prepare for this matchup in advance!

At the very least, Magath's Bayern Munich is clearly better to deal with than the desperately stable Juventus - although Bayern is invincible in Germany and can quickly establish its supremacy through its financial resources and influence even if it occasionally stumbles, the German football is at its lowest point in nearly two decades. Especially in the just-concluded European Championship in Portugal, the result of the German national team returning home after the group stage has lowered the appeal of players in the Bundesliga to a new level. Therefore, Bayern Munich during this period, its real strength is not strong among the top giants. Otherwise, they would not have lost at the feet of teams such as Chelsea and AC Milan in their previous lives, and they would not have seen the threshold of the Champions Cup semi-finals for many years in a row.

The most embarrassing thing is that I don't know if it's a coincidence or someone did it on purpose, Tottenham Hotspur will usher in a terrifying devilish schedule in mid-to-late September!

On September 16, in the first round of the Champions Cup group stage, Tottenham Hotspur faced the Bundesliga hegemon Bayern Munich at home.

On September 19, in the sixth round of the English Premier League, George will lead Tottenham at Stamford Bridge to challenge the Chelsea team coached by his brother Jose Mourinho.

On September 25th, in the seventh round of the English Premier League, Tottenham Hotspur will welcome another rival of the league title, the old Premier League leader Manchester United, at White Hart Lane, and George will also stage the first master-apprentice duel of the season with Ferguson!

On September 29, in the second round of the Champions Cup group stage, Tottenham will visit the Alp Stadium to challenge the top seed in Group C, Juventus, the Bianconeri who have risen strongly under the tutelage of Capello!

Bayern, Chelsea, Manchester United, Juventus...... In 14 days, Tottenham will challenge these four top teams in a row! If George can't prepare in advance and formulate a corresponding rotation strategy, then Tottenham is likely to suffer a wave of consecutive defeats during this period, which will have an extremely negative impact on George's plans for the whole season!

So, in order to keep the team's morale and avoid falling behind their rivals at the start of the season, George had to plan for the second half of September!

However, George can only keep this plan on paper for now. As Tottenham won the FA Cup and League Cup double and finished runners-up in the Premier League last season, many of Tottenham's players have been called up by their respective national team managers for this international break. At this time, only a few people remained in the team, such as Villa, Darren Anderton, Mendieta, and Baines.

With the first-team players being emptied of the national team, even the substitute goalkeeper Kathy Keller running to the other side of the Atlantic to represent the United States in the World Cup qualifiers, and the rest of the squad not even having enough numbers for a five-a-side match, George had no way to test his assumptions in practice.

FIFA virus, this is the price that Tottenham must pay in the process of becoming a top giant. After all, except in very special circumstances (such as Effenberg's expulsion from the German national team and Redondo's choice to quit the national team due to disagreements), no top club will have a situation where there are not many internationals in the team.

In this regard, George can only pray secretly in his heart that he will never receive the news that the player has been injured while playing for his country. If someone is out due to injury, Tottenham's fighting power will inevitably be weakened, and George will need to redesign the team's rotation plan.
