JackAlex93 11,263 Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 I'm hoping for a favourable draw. Chance of going a step further than last season, more money, more exposure and more coefficient points. Gerrard has done a remarkable job making us a force in europe again.

chris182 6,292 Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 Teams like Olympiakos, Slavia Prague, Dinamo Zagreb, Young Boys and even Molde are teams we could meet in the CL Qualifiers. Would be a good yard stick. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

southcoastbear 1,639 Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 Arsenal would be a cracking game, they are no at their best at the minute so we would definitely be in with a chance. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ayrshire Blue 2,053 Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 Easiest draw possible. Gives us a better opportunity to go further, make more cash and allows Tav, Jack, Roofe a better chance of being available for the next round. Tav in particular deserves to cap the season with a big tie, against Man U, Spurs or Arsenal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure we would all like to see how we compare against a really big Premier League team and to do well we need the best 11 possible out on the field. I'm really not wanting to go so far that SG becomes the next big thing and we find it impossible to hold on to him. He has Champions League with us next season so would want a top 4 team anyway so it's hard to call. Aye let’s not win the thing in case teams try and get our manager FS! 😂 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was banging on about an all English final and sniggering away when Boydie said teams will fear Rangers. McManaman last night was one comment away from saying it’ll be all English semi finals after describing Slavia as poor, unorganised etc. Total silence when they scored though. Their arrogance about that league is honestly pathetic Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

andyhrfc 2,242 Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 United are the team to avoid. Playing really well and lethal on the counter. We would need to be 100% on the money defensively. Arsenal are blowing hot and cold and Spurs are imploding. If we get an English club I would go for Spurs. Whoever we get we need to be working on our defensive cohesion. Too many goals conceded against Antwerp that were avoidable. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn’t want Spurs just for the fact that Son and Kane are absolutely lethal on the break. Helander is good positionally but I wouldn’t fancy his chances chasing Son.

Unfortunately there are few bad teams at this level as proved last year against BL. That was the only European game I recent years where I thought we were simply up against a superior side and were deservedly beaten. We need to up a level to progress but that’s not impossible.
