The arsenal game will get moved to April like it always does if either of us go through to the next round of the fa cup. Isn't that right?
No, the fifth round is February 17th and there are no PL games scheduled that weekend.

If we manage to get an away goal in the first leg then I think we will win the tie as we can score enough goals at home against these teams if we are on our game.

Tough game, we cant afford to give dybala freedom in this match and they are defensively sound, if we can get a draw at their place i think we will win the tie.

Delighted with that! Playing Champions League football is what such fixtures is all about imo.

Regarding the so called easy draws for Liverpool and United...and even City. Don’t let the arrogance of the English media fool you. I wouldn’t be surprised at all to see at least one fail to go through to the next stage. City would be a shock obviously but Basel could have beat United 3-0 in their game the other week and they won games when they had to. The sort of fixture I could easily see us fluffing right up for example!

Who gives a fvck about them anyway? City aside, none of them stand a chance of winning it.

PSG-Real is huge and probably decides who’s the favourite.

I agree. Sevilla and Porto won't be pushovers.

Not ideal but it could have been worse.

having got through the group stage, not something anyone should take for granted, I want to see us playing the biggest and the best in every round. And beating them, of course.

That, for me, is ideal.

Exactly the draw we should want.

Play the best teams, test ourselves, raise our levels and prove we mean business. Done it already this season.

Very pleased with the draw! COYS!

Second leg sandwiched between Huddersfield and Bournemouth, couldn't ask for much better than that.

Confirmed :

Feb 13 - Juve v Spurs (3 days after NLD)
Mar 7 - Spurs vs Juve

Bollocks, was banking on the NLD being moved to the Sunday telly games as have a family wedding on the Saturday. No chance that will be the case now with the Juve game confirmed for the Tuesday.

Keep your fingers crossed for the very outside chance of Friday night.
