UEFA Champions League/Europa League Knockout Stage Draw - 20 December

Not scared of Juventus at all. No-one gave us a chance in the group stages and we proved them all wrong by beating Barca and finishing second ahead of Benfica and Spartak Moscow. All in all, I think we have a great chance if we can continue our form from the group stages. C'mon the hoops.
 
I'm not scared of Real, it's a tough one, but I don't know, I can see RVP torturing their defence with Rooney, same can be said of Ronaldo against our's, though hopefully we'll be full strength defensively with a consistent starting back four by then.
 
Zenit v Liverpool

Newcastle v Metalist

Sparta Praha v Chelsea

Spurs v Lyon

This will be interesting.
 
I love how considering the calibre of opponents we've struggled against in Europe the last couple of years, suddenly we're clear favourites :p

Exactly, I think it will be close but I'd make us definite underdogs. It's an exciting tie though and we haven't much to lose as Tom rightly pointed out. Going to have to sell a kidney for tickets to the second leg I imagine but it will be worth it. :D
