Liverpool Vs VfL Borussia Mönchengladbach (just for Nostalgia)

GavRedKing

Once we avoid Atletico Madrid I'll be happy.

We can play :

Anzhi Makhachkala
Atletico Madrid
Borussia Monchengladbach
Stuttgart
Napoli
Basel
Internazionale
Sparta Prague
Bayer Leverkusen
Levante
Dynamo Kiev
Zenit St Petersburg
Ajax
BATE Borisov

I'd take BATE or Levante if I could choose.

8-10

What days are the fixtures for this round and are the seeded teams away first?

Reason being I want to go to both legs if Ajax draw either Chelsea or Liverpool and want to book flights asap

Caveman1

Right the small matter of the CL draw is out of the way, roll on the big guns

Not in last 32 but can in last 16, both draws are today

I think its inevitable that we'll play Liverpool along the way.

Stuttgart please cuz I fancy at trip back to where I once lived.


Failing that I would like either Leverkusen or Monchengladbach (bit of a German theme forming )

Semi final heart break for the Blues, with agent Rafa stripping off to run around in LFC jocks at the final whistle

Do 3rd place CL teams go into the unseeded part of the draw? That's insane if so.

4 are seeded and 4 unseeded

How else would they work it

Personally I think they should be all unseeded.

This competition is taking off now after a couple of years where teams didn't seem interested. I have been following it closely this year and its very good for learning about teams you don't get to see much of and their players.

Washington Irving

What time is the draw at?

I'd much rather Chelsea were out of Europe rather then be dropped into the Europa League.
