Difficult draw for Tottenham but I think all four English clubs will qualify from those groups.

Inter and Tottenham in group A
Lyon and Benfica in B
United and Rangers in C
Barca and Kazan in D
Bayern and Roma in E
Chelsea and Marseille in F
Madrid and Milan in G
Arsenal and Braga in H

Inter and Tottenham in group A
Lyon and Benfica in B
United and Rangers in C
Barca and Kazan in D
Bayern and Roma in E
Chelsea and Marseille in F
Madrid and Milan in G
Arsenal and Braga in H

I'd go with that except I think it will be Man Utd and Valancia from Group C and Arsenal and Shakhtar from Group H.

As much as I want Tottenham to go through with Inter, they will do well to finish ahead of Werder Bremen.

Group B is full of mediocre teams. Absolutely looking forward to Group G ripper games! Happy with United's draw, not fussed by Valencia to be honest.

Good to see a Serbian team in there, tough draw for them.

Group A : Internazionale and Werder Bremen
Group B : Lyon and Benfica
Group C : Man U and Valencia
Group D : Barcelona and Rubin Kazan
Group E : Bayern Munich and Roma
Group F : Chelsea and Marseille
Group G : AC Milan and Real Madrid
Group H : Arsenal and Partizan

I am not too familiar with all the teams, so some of these are just guesses really, like Partizan(?). After hearing the line ups for Barcelona, Internazionale and Real Madrid, I almost want to say these will be the teams to beat for this league. I am well excited for this league!!

Partizan are the champions of Serbia (as much as I hate to say it since I support Red Star Belgrade, the rivals of Partizan) I really hope they do well for the sake of Serbian football. But I don't see Partizan advancing to be honest, their main thing will be to finish second and I can see Shakhtar doing that with Arsenal taking first. But then again, Arsenal tends to choke.

Looking at the group Partizan have a good chance in going through to the knock out stages. Arsenal are the main threat for top of that table
