- Thread starter Samid
- Start date
Would like to get us Salzburg, might look to get tickets in that case.
Also Rangnick meeting his old RB buddies would be fun.

You mean when we pulled Atletico? These are our RO16 draws since the turn of the 10s.
Atletico
Bayern
Barca
PSG
PSG
Besiktas
Napoli (with prime Cavani and Lavezzi)
Copenhagen
Inter
7 times out of 9 the hardest possible draw.
An Olympiakos, Sevilla or Marseille type draw would be long overdue!
You have been spouting Olympiakos and Sevilla for days now. You actually bothered to go back to 2014, then why not 2013? And you bothered to consider 2018, then why not 2019? We have played in the last 16 round in the CL only four times in the last decade (shocking in itself I know) - but you keep ignoring to mention the other two (RM and PSG). I wonder why.
Lets do this then, your RO16 draws in the same period I listed ours.
PSG
Sevilla
Olympiakos
Real Madrid
Marseille
Milan
3 kind draws out of 6 (I'd personally say the Milan of 2010 makes it 4 but I'll be kind) vs 2 out of 9.
Some people have got wound up by the R3 FA Cup draw (which I'll admit we have had freakishly good in recent times) they've created a narrative that the slightest bit of research shows doesn't even exist.
Since UEFA is corrupt they will of course play the narrative of Messi vs Ronaldo. 100% PSG.
Cry me a river, Milan kind draw but Napoli such a harsh draw … and I was not referring to all draws in the club‘s history but rather to you randomly picking Olympiacos and Sevilla (when actually PSG happened more recently than Sevilla but you didn’t mention them at all)hows this worked out?
Math and probabilities for example Chelsea can't get 3 of the group leaders so that leaves them with bayern real and ajax now real won't get ateliti but can get anyone else so work this out for every other team and put them in the formula and you get them results
The probabilities aren't that high obviously so the chances are pretty even still
That's all considering its all random and uefa isnt cooking up the draws
you can hardly mention europa league draws, Milan was the biggest name we could have drawn them anyway. You have such a bee in your bonnet about these draws
It's some of your lot that started playing the victim about them, I was just pointing out the facts.you can hardly mention europa league draws, Milan was the biggest name we could have drawn them anyway. You have such a bee in your bonnet about these draws
Bottom line is to claim we get it easy in UCL is up there with Covid conspiracies.
On that basis, we've had Paris twice, Barca, Bayern and Leti since our last kind draw so.....
If anything, this will be the real biggest test of Rangnick's skills as a manager & as a tactical coach because let's face it, even Ole knocked PSG out, plus Rangnick will have had about 2 & a half months working with his players & getting them used to playing the way he likes.
I tried that twice & both times we got Inter.
Does anybody know for sure if BT Sport will have the draw on YouTube as I am working when it takes place & I want to watch it in the evening (as live) without knowing the draw outcome.
Will be:
United - PSG
Pool - Salzburg
City - Benfica
Lille - Chelsea
United - PSG
Pool - Salzburg
City - Benfica
Lille - Chelsea
Thanks God it’s not Europa league. Bring any one.

I just hope we don't have to play a Spanish team unless it's Real Madrid this year.
I can't stand the rest of them and their diving, screaming, ref moaning anti-football. Feels like every Spanish side we've played in the last 5 years have left me wanting to scratch my eyes out.

Happy Groundhog Day everyone.
Anyone going to Paris for the away leg?

Not Neymar, he will be visiting his sister.
Starts at 12, what time do we reckon we'll know the draw? 23:30?
12:00 CET
For those in the UK on this UK site for an English football club, its on at 11am.
It’s just the FA Cup you get the easiest draws in fairness. I had to laugh watching the draw a couple weeks ago. It was the first time I bothered for a while and I said to my partner easy home tie for Chelsea and a PL club for United. Feels like it’s every year.
My prediction is Chelsea draw Bayern and @Dancfc comes into brag about it, with tears in his eyes of course.
Thank you.
I was fully not going to tune in until 12.
What primadonna are we trying to appease with the thread title?
Not PSG or Atletico, please! 
Give them to Liverpool and City...
Give them to Liverpool and City...Calling it now...
Man City will draw Burton Albion

We are getting Red Bull Salzburg.
It’s an Irish site sunshine.
Is it gonna be on BT Sport?
Just hope we avoid PSG. They're the strongest side we can face plus I'm tired of playing them. I'd also like to avoid Atletico but wouldn't be overly worried about them like with PSG.
Salzburg would be the perfect draw in any case.

This, nailed on.

Michael Owen...meh.
Ronaldo v Messi? NO chance we don't get PSG, Uefa will make sure of that.
Balls will be twisted. Painful for some, a boon for others.

So is the draw going to happen soon or is it 30 mins of bullshit beforehand?
Ranieri has arrived.
