"I watched Villa play in San Siro years ago. It was a dump inside then and very underwhelming. Outside it looks amazing. That's why they've been planning to pull it down. Having said that, I'd love to be there with West Ham. Crowd got coined more in that match than anywhere I've been in 40 years. Cowards raining them down from above."

The seeded teams look easier (rangers / Briighton) If we want to go through then we need: Qarabag Marseille Freiburg Prague The rest all glamour ties. Milan - wow.

"When you look at the quality left in this, it’s just gutting to think we had Rangers in the final two years ago. This competition will never be that easy again."

"Yeah, easy was the wrong word. Better odds in our favour was what I meant. Saying that, it never helped us in the FA Cup."

Not sure that any of those are easy Jaan. It's not like the Conference.

"Mixed feelings about this. Part hope for a memorable big team tie like Milan. Part hope we get an easy tie, as it's impossible to feel hopeful with our performances. Although, our slow boring defensive football doesn't get as exposed in Europe. Chiellini recently talked us up as being as good as the best in Serie A."

"Qarabag looks a pain to get to, although I was speaking to someone the other week who’s relocating to Dubai and said that would be handy for him."

"5v4 to Sparta now vs Gala so looks like that's off the cards. Away match to Gala or Qarabag during Ramadan would be difficult for a lot of fans. More likely to kick off with our lot all loudly drinking and most of them not. Milan, Sporting or Benfica I'd like. Or Roma but looks like they're heading to ET"

"Istanbul maybe off the cards, Galatasaray are 2-1 down and had a man sent off away to Sparta, so 4-4 on agg. but you would have to favor Sparta to win this now especially if it goes to ET Prague maybe a good away day? Bring back some fond memories as well!!!!"

"Quite a comeback from Freiburg as well, down 2-0 at HT and on aggregate, they snatch a goal in stoppage time to make it 2-2 and then get the winner in ET, fair play to them!"

Freiburg will be in the other half of the draw so if we eventually play them it has to be in the final. I am told.
