    Vegas in the summer. Is that stadium covered/indoor? If not, that’s going to be quite brutal in terms of heat.

    Maybe that’s ten Hag’s test. To see if they shrivel up and die of heat exhaustion. Lol

    Brentford match has been postponed. This final is 3 days after the 2nd/home leg of our tie with Barca. Hopefully we can put the tie with Barca to bed in the first leg and rest players for the final.

    Crappy source and reductive headline aside, our recent form has been pretty amazing (even accounting for the extra game or two played).

    UEL R16 draw tomorrow. potential opponents contain some old foes

    Sevilla, Juventus, Leverkusen, Roma(José), Sporting

    and some new ones:

    FC Union Berlin, Union Saint-Galloise, Freiburg, Ferencváros, Feyenoord, Real Betis, Fenerbahçe, Rennes

    definitely won't get Arsenal and i don't think we can get Real Sociedad either

    The eight Europa League group-stage winners will be seeded. They will play the winners of the knockout-round play-offs, who will be unseeded.

    The only restriction involves national associations - no two sides from the same territory can be drawn against each other at this stage.

    https://www.skysports.com/football/...e-league-last-16-draw-date-time-how-to-follow


    Seeded teams (Qualified teams as group winners)

    • Union Saint-Gilloise
    • Arsenal
    • SC Freiburg
    • Ferencváros
    • Feyenoord
    • Real Betis
    • Real Sociedad
    • Fenerbahçe
    Unseeded teams (Europa League play-off winners)

    • Manchester United
    • Juventus
    • Sporting Lisbon
    • Shakhtar Donetsk
    • Union Berlin
    • Bayer Leverkusen
    • Sevilla
    • Roma

    ignore my earlier post. guess we can get Sociedad again then. shortest travel is Belgium or Netherlands? so Union Saint-Gilloise or Feyenoord? we already have enough schedule issues. Round of 16: March 9 and 16

    I love the image of SAF and EtH having a dinner together from earlier in the week. Took 10 years to find the new Gaffa but we got him.

    Might as well just put us in La Liga at this point.

    That league is a joke. We would be winning it. It's the SPL with better weather.

    What a week. Tough win against LC, then beat Barcelona, and win the league cup. Roll on!

    Betis have lost Fekir to a season long injury. I reckon he's a big loss.

    I was mistaken earlier. Betis play RM next weekend. Should be an interesting game. Betis are vying for a top four place. RM are looking to keep their title hopes alive.
