Pretty sure I've never even heard of this team before now, but okay. Top of the Austrian league. Let's go!

Pleased by that draw. Not underestimating LASK but I didn't want Inter, Getafe, Sevilla or Wolves. Also, Austria is not too far from the UK so the travel time shouldn't kill us as we try to stay in the hunt for top four domestically. Would have been a proper mare to go to Turkey or Ukraine.

Best possible draw for us. Some strong teams drawn each other too so that's also good for us. Top four or not, we have no reason not to win it this year.

Interesting ties. There aren't really any favourites vs favourites so it could be a very strong last 8 of the tournament.

Draw couldn't have been better. The next best 4 teams, Roma and Sevilla and Inter and Getafe have drawn each other.

LASK played Club Brugge in the CL play offs earlier this season and were beaten in both legs

Really wanted Rangers this tournament and now no chance of that happening, leverkusen will hammer them.

Oh so you’re only a fan in that you go to games and want them to win.
More that I go to games and have a few pints with my friends but rarely watch them on tv.

Madness how LASK have turned things around. I remember them getting relegated to the third Austrian league due to financial reasons about 5 years ago. Didn't even realize they were back in the top division before this season and now they're playing United in the knockouts.
Their fans must be in heaven.
