CL QF Draw - City V Spurs ===== SF V Ajax (If we get there)

[Dax777]

Glad we have the away game first. Will likely be one of their first in the new ground and the team will need to adapt. Would prefer it at Wembley as we have their number there. Home leg at home we will step up as we did against Liverpool and should get the job done.

Going away to Juventus most probably, in the second leg will be a challenge but hopefully take a lead over there and don't bottle it like Atletico!

Not the worst draw. Playing Porto would have been nice but we would likely have had to face someone decent in the semi finals and I would prefer Juve to Barcelona.

Let's hope we get past a tough Spurs first. But I don't expect to see Juventuss if we do. I expect to see Ajax.

Absolutely fantastic draw. The only team we would have an inferiority complex with are Barcelona and we can happily play them in the final. Time to put our big boy pants on. this is going to be incredible...

Leaves us with a hell of a run of fixtures doesn't it

Possible FA Cup semi
Spurs CL
Palace PL
Spurs CL
Spurs PL
Stretford PL

brings out the goosebumps that

The consolation is that hopefully Spurs and United will be even more knackered than we are by the time we play them in the league.

Both matches will kick-off at 8pm.

The away leg is expected to be played at Tottenham’s new stadium.

I don't know why so many think Juventuss will get past Ajax... I got my money non Ajax in that matchup

Raglike stuffiness

There’ll be piss boiling all over the Home Counties and Ireland

I'm Irish but yes it will be funny watching it at close quarters

That Palace game has got to be moved surely ?

I for one am extremely happy with that draw.No doubt about it they have some very talented players in midfield ... but ours is far better,even without my blue tinted specs. ;)

That Palace game has got to be moved surely ?

Why?

We play Cup Semi or Palace on Sat, Spurs away Tuesday, Palace Away Sunday & Spurs at home Wed.... Sounds about right to me

Spurs still having to establish a top four finish, I would be interested to see how they approach the game at Klanfield at the end of the month.

Hopefully Wolves do United in the Cup this weekend and we do our job. That would guarantee an FA semi or Final without the edge of facing United.
