Spurs lost 5-0 on aggregate to Real Madrid in the quarter-finals in the 2010/11 campaign before spending the last five terms competing in the Europa League.

And they will fancy their chances of reaching the knockout stages again after being drawn in Group E alongside CSKA Moscow, Bayer Leverkusen and Monaco.

Pochettino strengthened his squad with Victor Wanyama, Vincent Janssen and deadline day signings Georges-Kevin Nkoudou and Moussa Sissoko ahead of the European campaign.
