In Budapest?

Wondering if they're waiting for the CL / EL draw before announcing the PL games that will be televised in April? Would usually be announced well in advance but hopefully they'll be able to schedule the PL games around them this year

The weakest ones left are probably Dortmund & Porto.  Jeez.

Everyone will be hoping to draw us.

[Cunny]

City/Bayern/Chelsea/PSG in one half of the draw would be nice.

[MarkD]

I'd like to see City v Chelsea and PSG v Bayern in one side of the draw and us v Porto, Dortmund v Real the other side.

 

Too much to ask for?

If we get to the Semi, we're away at United in between the two ties

That's a complete no brainer isn't it? Unless we've had some miraculous recovery of league form you play Tsimikas Origi and pals at Old Trafford.

I know City get easy draws in the domestic cups and that but we can’t really complain in Europe the last few years. We got Porto in a quarter, Roma in a semi and played f***ing Spurs in a final.

But yes this please.

[Sion]

Are we really more scared of Chelsea than Madrid or Dortmund? Before Tuchel came in they were s***e. He's got them organised and they're playing confident but they can still be got at quite easily if we're on form. 

[Hightown Phil]

I think Chelsea are the best of the three to be honest, since Tuchel has come in they’ve been incredible defensively, not just in terms of conceding goals, teams aren’t getting near their goal. Madrid of now is just a name only thing and Dortmund are 5th in Germany fairly validly. Would make Chelsea favourites to beat either of the two.

Avoid another English team and im happy with the draw. Bring it on

They’ve conceded 1 goal in the last 9. I think quite easily is a bit much

The last team who had a shot in their six yard box in the league was Burnley in January.

I agree on Chelsea, they are looking pretty ruthless at the minute. 

[D.Boon]

We'll get PSG.

Said with such certainty. 

[McBain]

I reckon 

City - Porto

Us - Real

Chelsea - Bayern

Dortmund - PSG

I'm more worried about them as they have a proper manager now instead of Tuchel. I'm also worried about Chelsea as they have Tuchel instead of Lampard. 

You should probably ignore my ramblings on this one.

I was trying to do the optimum configuration in my head and then read these and was grateful I didn't have to bother anymore... nailed it

[oakie bob]

got a feeling we will draw City......could be good for us

[cocknose]

Yeah, about an 8 goal aggregate loss would be awesome !!

It would be really good for us not to play city until about December

I watched them lose to Nantes at home the other night, they were awful.
