Twitter reacts as Tottenham learn UEFA Europa League group stage opponents
Tottenham Hotspur have been handed a fairly easy group in the UEFA Europa League. Jose Mourinho’s men will face Ludogorets, LASK and Royal Antwerp in Group J of the competition.
After winning their playoff game against Maccabi Haifa in an emphatic manner, Tottenham went into Friday’s draw in Pot 1. And Mourinho is likely to be pleased with the outcome of Friday’s draw in Switzerland.
Bulgarian outfit Ludogorets have faced English opponents in the past and are likely to pose the biggest test in the group stage for Spurs.

Austrian club LASK did make it to the round of 16 in the last season’s edition of the Europa League, but were quite easily dispatched by Manchester United. And the North Londoners’ final opponents, Royal Antwerp, are making their debut in the group stages of the Europa League.
Given that Mourinho has beefed up his squad and the form that the club has been of late, qualifying through the group shouldn’t be a difficult task. In fact, it would be quite an upset if Spurs didn’t go on to top the group.
Fans took to Twitter to react to the draw and here are some reactions from the Tottenham supporters.

Happy enough with that.
Best thing is not having to travel as far as we could have done.

Great Group. Decent travel distance. Should be easy to top it. It’s better for us to Goes all the way the first round. Then take some rest, and give way for the B Team to have some minutes.
