• Tottenham in group with holders Internazionale
• Have your say on the Champions League draw
English clubs largely had reasons to be pleased with the draw for the Champions League group stages, which took place in Monaco this afternoon. Manchester United will travel to Scotland to take on Sir Alex Ferguson’s former club Rangers with Valencia and Turkish champions Bursaspor completing Group C.
Harry Redknapp’s Tottenham, who secured their first appearance in the Champions League group stage with yesterday’s 4-0 win over Young Boys, appear to have the trickiest assignment of the Premier League sides after they were drawn in Group A alongside holders Internazionale, now managed by Rafa Benítez, Werder Bremen and Dutch side FC Twente, who Steve McClaren led to the Eredivisie title last season.
Chelsea were matched with Marseille, Spartak Moscow and Slovakian champions MSK Zilinain in Group F. Arsenal appeared to have the most straightforward assignment after drawing Shakhtar Donetsk, Braga and Partizan Belgrade in Group H.
