My power ranking for this is: 

1: Us

2: Leverkusen

3: Milan

4: Roma

5: Brighton

There really aren't any good teams in this besides us. Even Sevilla aren't there this time for some reason.

Would love to meet Mourinho and Xabi on the way.

you've probably all seen it but here's the k/o draw - 

Feynoord vs Roma
Milan vs Rennes
Lens vs Frieburg
Young Boys vs Sporting
Benfica vs Toulouse
Braga vs Qarabag
Galatasary vs Praha
Shakhtar vs Marseille

draw for R16 is after these games - wasn't a double draw

[Leo No.8]

Worrying turn to see Young Boys heading to The Lisbon.

You'd expect to qualify from those ties; Feyenoord, Milan, Probably Lens, Sporting, Benfica, Braga, Galatasary and probably Marseille.

Nothing special there but a lot of tricky sides capable of beating/knocking us out if we're anything less than 100% so it'd be nice to take this competition seriously from hereon in. It'd be great to see us come out of this season with 2 trophies even if we end up falling a little short in the title race.

[Sir Tokyo Sexwale]

you reckon Feynoord over Roma? Don't know much about the relative strengths of either

[Gethin]

Draw for this is at 11am tomorrow

We'll get one of the 8 winners of the KO Round ties tonight - unless it's Toulouse who were in our group.

There's country protection - but all the English teams won their group and are in our half of the draw anyway so that doesn't matter. We'll be home second leg. Run of games will be

Sat 2 March: Forest (PL - Away)

Thur 7 March: EL R16 Away Leg

Sun 10 March: City (PL - Home)

Thur 14 March: EL R16 Home Leg

Sun 17 March: Either Everton (PL - Away) or FA Cup QF

International Break

[Case]

AC Milan and Benfica both made it. Freiburg and Qarabag looking likely.

AC Milan and Sporting are probably ones to avoid

But not half as much as they wanna avoid us

They will. But with things as they are we could do with the shortest trip to the sh*ttest team possible.
