What happens if both Tottenham and Inter lose? Do Spurs go through?

And here we go... 

Do find it funny how quick salah was written off as a one season wonder. May not hit the same amount as last season but has lost the ability to score 

it's because folks did not really watch him when he wasn't scoring. I did and his level of play wasn't much below than when he was scoring - just the shots weren't going in.

Salah is a lot more than goals though. He beats players often in two very distinct ways: a. dribbling and pace and b. quick link up with teammates (+pace). The b, with his speed and quick feet, makes him especially effective in tougher games, like CL. It takes a lot of skill to link up at such pace and I think he showed a little bit of that when at chelsea.

To think we had him and did not bet on him. And then we saw his improvement elsewhere and still let him go for peanuts...

Man does Napoli give the ball away a lot...cheaply too.  

This is maddening to watch.

And change again, Tottenham scored

I fucking despise Pool and Spurs but I would much rather see them go through so we can avoid them in the EL. Napoli and Inter dont scare me one bit.

[Laylabelle 9,534]

I miss the crazy last game excitement.. Then we'd get the draw and think shit and go out and think what was the point 

Both teams through 

[Milan 17,955]

I am not celebrating Liverpool's and Tottenham's results… But I am glad we will not have to face them in EL.

[Sideshow Luiz 2,310]

Destined to face Napoli at some point.  

[Laylabelle 9,534]

Yeah same. Plus it's more intresting to play teams wouldn't usually meet. Not one you know will meet each season. Only arsenal.. 

Be intresting to see what occurs next

Couldnt disagree more, those are both world class teams

The CL draw this years was shite

ridiculous that Porto, Schalke and probably Roma were gifted through

We also could have to face Lyon if they somehow bollocks it up tomorrow

Criminal that Porto and Schalke got put in same group (with two even worse teams) when that should have had Inter and Napoli (or Spurs or Liverpool)

If you think we walk through to EL title your are mistaken

I do think we should walk through. Milan and Napoli are good sides but if we play at our best we should be able to beat them over 2 legs. It is our title to lose. Lets hope we get only one hard opponent tho so we can rotate more. Glad spurs and pool are thru in cl. Keeps their energy in europe and them out of our way in el
