that Europa League draw did look confusing didn't it guys well sure six games have become eight and a whole new format to adapt to but it's still the same UEFA Europa League and after we spent last season out of Europe it's good to be back to where we belong with this being an poer goo's debut European campaign with the club fans will be expecting the Australian manager to contend in a competition where the likes of Jose Mourinho and Antonio con failed but before they start thinking of that they need to get through the league phase a rematch of one of an POA goo's most ferocious rivalries back in Scotland in one of Europe's most historic grounds a dangerous away day to Turkey and a home tie against one of the most rapidly improving teams this year's Europa League draw had a lot to offer Tottenham but some of you may be unaware of just how difficult some of these teams an will have to face to get to The Knockout stages in today's video will explain everything you need to know about the draw how the league phase Works who Spurs will be facing a breakdown of the strongest clubs we'll be coming up against and where we should be aiming to finish but before we do get into it please do smash that like button and subscribe to the channel for more Spurs content so before we get into what exactly happened during the draw we first need to briefly explain what this new Europa League format is after all it was pretty confusing what watching the draw unfold so with this new format four new spots have been opened and instead of 32 clubs there will now be 36 competing and no the usual group stage is no more now we have the new league qualifying phase each Club will have to play eight games instead of the usual six four will be at home and the other four will be away once every match has been played as the name suggests all 36 teams will be ranked in a league table based on how many points they manag to pick up then the top eight sides will qualify directly to the round of 16 while the teams ranked 9th to 24 will compete in a playoff phase here only eight clubs from those 16 will be joining the others in the round of 16 sure the new format is going to put pressure on clubs with more games to play but at least we're going to get some heavy clashes early on instead of waiting for The Knockout rounds with all these changes do you think this new format will make the competition more more exciting or did you prefer the simpler group stage format let me know your thoughts in the comment section below now we got this one out of the way let's discuss the teams we'll face in this year's Europa League starting with the home games an poer gogloo man will face one of their most difficult challenges in former Europa League finalists Roma and it looks like Destiny wanted an Posta goo to return to iooks this season even if the Australian manager is now with a different Club there's no way he's going to be be getting a warm welcome when we do face off with Rangers and speaking of ferocious atmospheres and away games Spurs are going to be entering one of the most hostile atmospheres in the world as they travel to Turkey to take on Galatasaray aside from the big matches way to Rangers and galatas and a home match to as Roma Spurs will also have to get through ties against Dutch side AEL Alma azabani side carab and Swedish side elburg at home meanwhile on the way side of things Spurs will have to travel to Hungary and Germany to take on faren Vos and hoffenheim so is it a complicated League to have of course with the likes of Roma Rangers galat aser and AED Alber in the mix but does this mean it will be difficult for an's men to get through well we don't think so so let us dive into some of the matches we're going to have to start Spurs ultimate test will be against the former finalists coming to the Tottenham Hotspur stadium in Daniela d rosi's R ever since that devastating loss to the master of the Europa League final Seeva a little over a year ago romor has managed to hold up the bulk of their side with the likes of dibala Lorenzo Pelini and manini staying at the club the real danger within the Italian side is the transfers that they've made in the window with a club barely qualifying for the competition last season in sixth place they've made some significant signings to make sure they do better this year between dovic s dybala and Pelini despite their poor start to life in Syria Roma's attacking force is going to be a huge threat when they come to the Tottenham hot spur Stadium the next team we want to take a look at is an po goo's former Rivals we're of course talking about Glasgow Rangers a lot of you might remember that historic run from the Scottish side a few years back when they reached the Europa League final however unlike Roma the majority of Rangers Europa League finals Squad did move on from the club following the penalty shootout loss with Calvin Bassie and Joe REO both swapping G for the Premier League while Ryan Ken and Glen Kamar also left however Rangers have done some business in recent times but their squad is not quite as good as the one that they had they may not be the force they were a few years back but with a hostile atmosphere of I they can do anything in fact despite them having arguably a Bad season last year with manager Michael Bill getting sacked for new manager clemont they still managed to grab themselves a cup and more important ly managed to qualify for The Knockout stages of the Europa League topping their group no matter how bad things appear Rangers will always put up a challenge in the Europa League an POA golu has a big European Knight ahead of him but he'll be up for the challenge he's already got that experience with the iooks crowd and it won't phase it so Spurs should be hoping to walk out in that game with nothing less than a win do you think that is right for Spurs to say or do you think Rangers have something prepared for us let us know your thoughts in the in the comment section below next up is arguably tottenham's toughest away trip in Galatasaray and a lot of you might remember their match against Manchester United last season where they managed to walk away against the English Club with an undefeated record so why exactly have they now fallen into the Europa League and are they still a fret despite their failure to qualify to the Champions League following their defeat in the qualifying stage against young boys Galatasaray still have the bulk of their squad that made them so dangerous against against Manchester United and won them the league last season with big names like Zak merens maera and aardi still at the club the Turkish side May perhaps be suffering from the loss of one of their Talisman players wolfred zaha who looks to be leaving the club for Leon however an POA golu can't underestimate galatas with a hostile atmosphere at that Stadium combined with The Talented Squad Spurs are in for a tough test in Turkey but it's not all just difficult games for Tottenham or maybe they all are the club does like to make things difficult for themselves but on paper our remaining games against carbag and elsborg should be a walk in the park with both clubs coming from a significantly lower coefficient League neither kiborg nor elsborg are the best in the Europa League with elburg barely qualifying in the competition after finishing fifth in the alansan and caraban qualifying as champions of the aabani league which ranks 26th in the UFA coefficient finally the last away game we haven't mentioned yet shouldn't prove to be too much of a difficult test for Tottenham especially with him having to play hoffenheim last season hoffenheim managed to claw their way back into Europe after a brief absence from their competition however their Stadium isn't exactly a fortress compared to the likes of I Bros and RAM Park the Sid's home record was significantly worse compared to their record away from home which may prove to be perfect for anch poer Go's men with Tottenham traveling out to Germany and the last away away game faren Vos while the Hungarian side may have choke hold over their league they've never proven themselves as a force in the Europa League having never qualified for The Knockout stages of any kind in European football so in summary we have three tough games against Roma Rangers and galatas one of which will be with the Home Advantage and both carbag and elsborg should be simple to deal with if we want to show with serious about winning this competition when it comes to the away games they aren't exactly favorable being forced to travel to two of the most hostile atmospheres in all of Europe one of which an po golu has a long and stored history with but still the talent in our Squad should be more than enough to carry us through these difficult games and if we can win both it will be smooth sailing from there eight different teams but not Tough Enough that Spurs should falter at the first hidle an po golu may not have the European pedigree that other managers in the competition have with him failing to do anything significant in Europe during his time at Celtic but the group has been been put together at Tottenham but the group he has put together at Tottenham is a step above the one he had in Scotland and now it's time for him to prove himself with this new Europa League format Spurs are going to have to dig deep into the reserves to get through the season without injuries but the goal should remain the same as always go all the way and win the title so do you think Spurs has what it takes to navigate the Europa League can we finally win our first trophy since 2008 or should fans lower their expectations let
