    Playing at Wembley in the Champions League.

    A nice novelty? Or actually rubbish?

    What do you think Spurs fans?

    It's just the six goals in four outings for Sergio Aguero this season. A spell tarnished, some may say, by the elbow on West Ham's Winston Reid which leaves the Manchester City striker with two games to go on his league suspension.

    He is, of course, a feared striker in the Premier League, but at 28, how does he now rank against the elite of Europe?

    Aguero has hit 22 Champions League goals - excluding qualifiers - a feat good enough for 42nd on the all-time list of scorers in the competition.

    He needs one more to draw level with Frank Lampard and Jari Litmanen, two more to tie Paul Scholes and Luis Figo. Cristiano Ronaldo leads the way on 93.

    After the postponement of this fixture last night, Borussia Monchengladbach have left 'sick notes' for their fans on the seats in the away end at the Etihad.

    What a side that was to watch. Bale. Modric. Van der Vaart. Crouch.

    Peter Crouch played a pivotal part in Tottenham securing their place in the Champions League back in 2010. 

    He scored the winner against Manchester City that secured fourth and their place in Europe's elite club competition and also bagged a couple as Spurs reached the last eight, where they were beaten 5-0 on aggregate by Real Madrid.

    The Monaco team is in - and it contains a very familiar face in ex-Manchester United flop, and ex-Chelsea reject Radamel Falcao.

    The Colombian bombed in both spells in the Premier League but has been prolific in Europe. Can he show English fans what he's all about?

    Monaco: Subasic; Raggi, Glik, Jemerson, Sidibe; Fabinho, Bakayako; Dirar, Moutinho, Bernardo Silva; Falcao

  7. Pitch perfect?published at 19:03 British Summer Time 14 September 2016

    One thing Tottenham cannot replicate at Wembley are the pitch dimensions. At 105mx69m, the Wembley surface is bigger than the one at White Hart Lane, which measures 100mx67m.

    Tottenham boss Mauricio Pochettino has prepared for the bigger pitch by adapting the training pitch at the club’s Enfield training base, but he believes his side's style of football will suit a wider playing surface.

    He said: “When you play on a big pitch it can help a team who try to build from the back, as we do, because you have more space. Yes, it is bigger than White Hart Lane but we are not worried about our physical condition.”  

    “We need to go there and behave naturally. We will have the same routine as we do at White Hart Lane – arrive three-and-a-half hours before the game, have some meetings, prepare for the match in a normal way."

    White Hart Lane is announced as "the world famous home of the Spurs" just before every match kicks off - tonight they are also in a world famous home but this time it is Wembley.

    Spurs will be playing their Champions League games here while work continues on a new stadium and the capacity of White Hart Lane is reduced to about 31,000 - and a full house of close to 90,000 is expected here tonight for their opening group game against Monaco.

    Wembley has been given a makeover to feel very much like the Spurs home - even extending to the club motto "To Dare Is To Do" being emblazoned above the food in the media room.

  9. Home comfortspublished at 19:00 British Summer Time 14 September 2016

    Tottenham are playing their Champions League home games at Wembley because construction of their new stadium has limited the capacity at White Hart Lane.

    Of course, there's never anything quite like home so Spurs staff have been doing what they can to give Wembley that homely touch.

    An awning outside the national stadium has been erected with the words 'Welcome to Tottenham Hotspur' on it while the Tottenham cockerel is being displayed on screens dotted around the ground.

    Will home comforts be enough? Spurs have won just once at Wembley since it was re-opened in 2007...

    'Normally I'm watching on TV' - Morgan

    Wes Morgan is one of those Leicester players I mentioned in my opener whose only previous experience of Champions League football was what he saw on TV.

    "Normally I am watching it on television with friends but to actually be involved is amazing," he said.

    "It feels special, I am not getting any younger and at 32 to be able to be involved in a competition like this is fantastic."

    When it comes to the question of whether Leicester can win the Champions League, Morgan is not reading from the same script as his manager: "Why not? No-one thought we would win the Premier League."

    I was not disappointed.

    Manchester weather

    Lots and lots of rain was the reason for Manchester City's game against Borussia Monchengladbach being postponed last night, so how's it looking tonight?

    Alreet is the answer. In fact, it is a pretty balmy 24C at the moment, with not a cloud in the sky. That's the way it is forecast to stay, but fellow Manchester residents will know you can never be 100% certain. The weather being predictably unpredictable.

    The Manchester City team news is in and, surprisingly, Pep Guardiola makes a change. In comes Ilkay Gundogan for David Silva.

    Dinner plans that couldn't be cancelled for Silva? Apparently not. He's being 'rested as a precautionary measure', according to City.

    Leicester are not the only Premier League side in Champions League action tonight, with Tottenham and Manchester City also playing.

    Spurs are back in the Champions League for the first time in five years, when they reached the quarter-finals on their debut in the competition. They take on Monaco at Wembley.

    Meanwhile, Manchester City return to the Etihad 24 hours after their game with Borussia Monchengladbach was postponed because of heavy rain. I was in Manchester last night, never seen thunder and lightning like it. That's saying something for Manchester.

    There's plenty of happy faces in Bruges today as Leicester City prepare to embark on a journey few, if anyone, thought would be possible.

    One of the Foxes' rewards for their stunning title-winning season was a place in the Champions League and tonight they take on Belgian side Club Brugge.

    Claudio Ranieri has already been up to his old tricks by playing down Leicester's chances of another fairytale run.

    They were 5000-1 to win the Premier League last season, and are only 50-1 to win the Champions League this time. Do Leicester fans dare to dream again...?
