If we get Slavia Prague whilst we can't go I'll kill someone*

They’re a decent side. Knocked Sevilla out the year before last.

[goose2010]

To show the importance of winning the group. Braga got Roma.

 

 

Tough draw really but all games are at this stage.

Do seeded teams play home second? They might be a bit dangerous but we have to be favourites. 

 

Some decent sides being draw against each other. Its quite an even competition.

Slavia Praha are top of the Czech First Division, unbeaten, have scored 33 goals in 11 games and conceded just 3.

Also lost to Midtylland, Hapoel Beer Sheva and 4-0 at Leverkusen. 
 

Alongside that I don’t know whether it’s better or worse but they are likely to come out of a winter break then

Would love our key players back by then

You also forget to mention they lost 4-0 to Bayern Leverkusen and 3-1 to Hapoel beer sheva in the europa league.

yeah we will be away first. 

[AKCJ]

Come on Boris. Get those vaccines rolled out so we don't have to watch this from our sofas. Would be an unbeatable away day.

[CosbehFox]

By the way if there was any chance of going, we’d barely get 1000 for the away end 

[1972 Fox]

Not the easiest draw but I'm quietly confident we will go through.

 

Prefer our draw than those of Man Utd and Arsenal.

[EastAnglianFox]

Get that vaccine shipped out to Prague immediately Boris!

 

 

[Harry96]

Tough draw they’re a pretty good side. Would’ve been a class away day 

[Mickyblueeyes]

Decent draw. Just watching it though, there are some real big teams left. The Italian teams left are all capable of winning it.

Sold their best two players to West Ham this season and biggest spending was just over £1m on a CB.

 

We have a better than average draw as the bookies rated them 11th best team of the 16 unseeded teams.

[Deeg67]

Decent draw - tough, could be worse.  There are some pretty tough pairings on the board.

At that point Soyuncu, Ricardo and Castagne will only be a week or two from fitness again.

[LCCFox96]

Benfica vs Arsenal

Real Sociedad vs Man United

Salzburg vs Villarreal

Braga vs Roma

Lille vs Ajax

Olympiakos v PSV 

 

That should thin things out nicely. We've done alright there. A tough enough draw, but a winnable one whilst other teams get trickier ties on paper.

[GingerrrFox]

Has Luke Thomas’s Dad ever been on a lads trip to Prague by any chance?

Do they do another draw after this round or are we in brackets? 

[StriderHiryu]

Good draw that, just a shame fans can't go there. Great place to visit is Prague!

Another draw with no restrictions so if we get there we could draw another English team.

[Vacamion]

 

Think I'll definitely stay tuned for Glen Hoddle and Steve Macmannaman's insights.
