The draws have been completed for the Europa League Group Stage and we have been drawn with
Steaua Bucharest
Napoli
FC Utrecht
All of the teams have European Pedigree with Steau Bucharest winning the European Cup in 1985/86, runners up in the European Cup in 1988-89 and reaching the semi-finals in 1987-1988. Their manager is former Spurs and West Ham players Ilie Dumitrescu.
Napoli have also won a European Trophy winning the UEFA Cup in 1988-89 where their star player was one Diego Armando Maradona.
FC Utrecht also have a good European pedigree and have featured in the UEFA cup on numerous occasions (most notably in the 1980s)
This isn’t a bad draw when you think about it as each of the teams above are, in my opinion, beatable by us. It won’t be easy but then we wouldn’t want it any other way (we’re not Man Utd!)
