The final of this being on a Wednesday doesn’t work for me, at all.

Weekend match beaut.

Their fear of a Hendo pointing masterclass will be palpable

Sporting vs Atalanta and West Ham vs Freiburg, think that’s two ties matching up teams who were in the same group. That’s pretty boring.

Had to cancel plans to see Springsteen at Sunderland that night and go to Wembley in late July

 

Never seen him before, so if anything happens between May and July to foil me I will hunt Ceferin down and hang his over-styled torso on meat hooks.

They've just thrashed a fairly strong Galatasaray side.

That Gala side is no great shakes. Molde FK rattled them properly in the group stages. Some big names, but far from a cohesive unit. Wouldn’t mind us sending a fairly young side to Prague, and turning them over in the return leg when the City game is out of the way.

They were in the Champions league with United, Bayern and Copenhagen?

Leverkusen were in the same group as Qarabag and have been drawn against them in the knockout round too. 

[Trumo]

Sparta Prague is not a bad draw at all. A test without being too testing, as long as we approach the games the right way.

Bollocks. It's genuinely nice and traditional. As it should be imo

I don’t agree.

Am I a bit too on edge, or is that fighting talk?

I'm starting to think that that Gala side is no great shakes...

[No2]

That's a fucking brilliant draw considering the circumstances, we can send group stage squad to that game, anything 0-2 or better we will turn around easily at home.

Whatever gave you that idea!

[Mudface]

We're fucked. They're not Galatasaray, they're Sparta FC and they lived on blood.

 

 

[Megadrive Man]

Draw in progress.

[Megadrive Man]

Milan v Roma.

 

We get Atalanta!

 

Bayer Leverkusen v West Ham

 

Benfica v Marseille

[Lee909]

Didnt see this thread so started one

Talking to myself

 

 

Good draw. Need to try and get this done in the first leg. Would help us with the league game. Good to see Roma vs Milan. Hopefully that's them out

 

 

 

[Lee909]

Benfics/Marseille if we get through with 2nd leg at Anfield

 

Perfect

[Megadrive Man]

Semi final draw

 

Benfica or Marseille v Liverpool or Atalanta

[Vincent Vega]

I’d like us to play AC Milan in the final if we get there, that’s a proper European final, and we’ve never had any shit with their fans.

[Megadrive Man]

All set up for a Liverpool vs Leverkusen, Klopp vs Alonso final...

[Lee909]

Atalanta not the same team they've been the last few years. They've never really travelled well either. Hopefully we can get a couple of goals at home and get it done. 

 

Not watched Marseille for a long time but they're 7th in League 1 seem a few Benfica games and Rangers gave them all they could handle so we should get through that with the second leg at home.
