Apparently they eliminated a team called sumgayit FK from Azerbaijan along the way.

Think that sums up the qualifying stages of the Europa League :)

I saw Shkëndija lose 5-1 on aggregate to Rosenborg in last season's EL qualifiers. They're a worse team than Plovdiv based on those two games, they will have to perform a lot better to cause us problems.

Great that it's on "neutral" ground in the national stadium.

It's a football club, they've been operating as such for some time. They will put out 11 players, most of them are determined guys and playing in a solid system. So that's what I know about Tottenham, what about Shkendija, anyone?

I think we'll absolutely hammer these guys. We need to press and be aggressive in the 1st half, hopefully bag 3 to 4 goals and then rest Kane and Son for Sunday and then Tuesday.

We should be rested and fit for this game. "Luckily" for us, covid-19 striked Leyton Orient.

Anyone knows who travelled and who didn't? Quite a battle again for the 18 spots in the squad.

Other than Reguilon not being registered (No reg for Reg, as it were), it's more or less the full squad with only Tanganga injured AFAIK.

Yeah got that, but that still means we need to leave a few out.

Available squad:
GK: Lloris, Hart, Gazza
D: Alderweireld, Sanchez, Dier, Davies, Serge, Doherty + CCV, Cirkin
M: Sissoko, Lo celso, Tanguy, Winks, Hojbjerg, Gedson, Sessegnon + White
A: Kane, Son, Dele, Bergwijn, Lamela, Lucas

If we scratch Gazza, CCV, Cirkin and White you still need to leave three at home.

So one can assume that Hojbjerg's knock on his ankle is OK then?

To be fair, we need to perform a lot better than we did against Plovdiv.

Well if Højbjerg got a knock on his ankle I'd suspect we'd save him for the weekend but I haven't seen anything anywhere about who's travelled and who hasn't.

The club occasionally do a video of the players getting on the plane at the airport for european games so hopefully we might have a clue at some point this morning.

Kick off time of 7pm is a bit annoying. Shame it isn't later.
