Good draw for Wolves. Espanyol having terrible season in La Liga.
CL/EL Knockout Draw | United draw Brugge | City vs Real & Liverpool vs Atletico
- Thread starter Samid
- Start date

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?
Dortmund-PSG (too much quality)
Real Madrid-Man City (unless city can fix that defence and get Aguero back in form)
Atalanta-Valencia (on current form but can go either way)
Atletico-Liverpool (Scousers peaked too early and club championship likely ruins their rhythm)
Chelsea-Bayern (inexperience will be costly)
Lyon-Juventus (old lady should find it easy)
Tottenham-Leipzig (no pressure means good spurs performance)
Napoli-Barca (any chance was kicked out along with Ancelotti)
Lucky team that gets Atalanta/Valencia next round, most likely gets to semi.

Nice trip to Barca too
Getafe - Ajax.

No prizes for guessing who that will be.
I'd say there's a good chance they're bad in the league (relatively) because of motivation, while in the CL they look as motivated as ever.
Would be massively surprised if they lose to Chelsea. Chelsea cant play against bigger sides.
Best Champions League group stage ever wasn't it?
Unfortunately for us English teams are entering a period of dominance with all the money and talent in the league. We need to catch back up to the pack asap.
Indeed.
I think they are about 23-3 aggregate against North London the last few years though, they’ve really done a number on them!
Arse getting a bye
Olympiacos - Arsenal
We're going to get red bull
*Nope we didn't

Brugge - United
We get Brugge.
Nice! Should be a class away!
Club Brugge v Manchester United
Club Brugge - Manchester United
Brugge is lovely, great away day, lucky bastards!
Park there representing us.
Club Bug 
Brugge, by far the best team in Belgium, doesn't say too much. Will try to get tickets.
Didnt they knock Arsenal out the CL a few years back?
Get in, great draw.
Good team and great city to visit.
Some nice draws in the CL.
Brugge - Man Utd
Whatever’s left of Salzburg play Frankfurt.
Definite potential banana skin that
Brugge gave Real Madrid two good games in the CL so interesting tie.
Hopefully they'll want Wesley back aswell to boost them further.

Who is the blonde doing the draw? Asking for a friend.
We will struggle with that potentially. They looked scary on the break against Real Madrid. We're beating them for ages at the Bernabeu.
Liverpool ? Come on now.
Think that'll be close to impossible, plus you'd need to have a ST or something similar as from before a certain date. I remember a few mates of me wanted to get tickets to the CL group stage and even that didn't work (while it did last season).
They've got a good chance against Utd though, interesting tie.
No. They won 3-2 at the Emirates and had to avoid a defeat by 2 or more goals at home to go through, but they lost 3-0 so Arsenal went through.
Yoh, these draws are tedious.

I knew finishing 1st or 2nd in the group wouldn't make much difference. Brugge who are walking their own league is nearly as tough as United could have got while AZ for finishing 2nd got an easier tie in Lask.. At least its a short trip for United.
Nice draw. Easy for us, with some big names drawing each other. Looking at that list, I'd say we're favourites for the EL on paper.
No, they won at Emirates but lost in their home stadium in Athens. I think that was the last time the played, 4 years ago, in a group including either Juve or Atletico Madrid.
Great draw for british teams..
For the neutrals Leverkusen-Porto, Getafe-Ajax and Eintracht-Salzburg should be the most interesting matches
