There’s no doubt going to be a lot to cover, and we’ll have it all here waiting for you.

“Now we can go there on Wednesday and enjoy the record-breaking crowd”. “We started the game a little sloppy, but after 15 or 20 minutes we got on top, scored the goal and started to handle the game”.

“There are many reasons I wanted to commit my future to Tottenham”, said Dier.

Mauricio Pochettino’s Lilywhites achieved their highest ever Premier League finish last season, coming third to quality for the tournament, while Monaco have also progressed and now top their domestic table after taking 10 points from their first four fixtures.

“We believe in the way we play, and it’s a good chance to play on a big pitch”. They are one of the youngest teams in the tournament on average age, and their future looks very bright indeed.

Monaco were set up well, and executed perfectly. They will need to overlook that history. They were superbly organized, and the attacking tandem of Radamel Falcao and Bernardo Silva were quite good in the opportunities they had.

As for Monaco, they’re playing great at the beginning of the season with draw against Guingamp in the first round and three consecutive victories.

Spurs will also be hosting their first European fixture at Wembley Stadium, in an agreement with the FA. Spurs may feel unlucky, but Monaco earned that win. I think it can be a benefit for us. “I was in the first-team squad with him”.

Spurs are fine, don’t panic.. He is again available, however, and given Pochettino is known to value him and that Spurs have been less convincing in the final third since Wanyama has replaced him alongside Eric Dier at the base of midfield, he could be recalled. Football is a game that is played with extremely fine margins of error. “Spurs are a very competitive team, but we’ve got our plans that will hopefully help us” said Leonardo Jardim. Instead I’m supremely confident about the club’s return to the Champions League. It does put a rather fine point upon the trip to Moscow later this month, though. Perhaps I’m still high from the 4-0 smashing of Stoke, or maybe I just don’t fear our Ligue 1 opponent.
