Looking at the teams left in the competition, there wasn't a team you would look at and think it would be an easy tie. So, it was imperative therefore we got a home tie and it is a winnable game.

The tie isn't for another six weeks yet, so by then we should have a clearer idea of how Spurs are taking shape under Juande Ramos.
