Could you imagine that? Would be incredible that. And only 3 or 4 years ago we were worrying about the english coefficient reducing our number of spots.

That would be great. Kudos to Liverpool. Thought Bayern were poor but how much of that is down to them or how Liverpool played. Interesting to see what the draw throws up.

Surprised but not unduly so by Scholes. Always seemed a decision based on the heart more than the head. Be interesting to see what he does now.

Fair play to Rennes that was a tough game even if it was a 3-0 win probably a bit lucky with the second goal.

Very tight until Aubameyang scored his second. Good performance to get out of a pickle entirely of our own design. Hopefully we can show up in both legs from now on!

Don't really like Rennes to be honest, bit of a snide bunch.

the ref has no joy in his heart for booking Aubameyang for the mask.

Pfft it's no Boro/Basle.

Or Boro/Steau Bucharest.

We were in the Europa League before people here started having to watch football on a Thursday.

He was booked for time-wasting, not wearing the mask.

That's not true.

The ref asked him if he knew how much time he had taken and Aubameyang replied "As a matter of fact I do, Cubby." and pulled a watch out of his pocket. He then shouted in the ref's face "Look at that! It's exactly two seconds before I honk your nose and pull your underwear over your head!"

So we got Barca. Going to be interesting.

Liverpool have got a nice draw.

Winners of our game play Liverpool/Porto.

Exciting draw for United, always cool to play a properly elite team. Second leg at home as well which helps.

It’s been switched around apparently due to City.

Liverpool have got the best draw possible. They play Porto and the second leg in the semi final is at Anfield.

They said the tie would be reversed cos United and City can't be at home on same night. Don't know if that means one will be Tuesday and one will be Wednesday or if United's tie will be switched from Barca vs United to United vs Barca.
