the gunslinger 3,366 Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 I watched the whole match today and I would say it was pretty even with us having g that bit of extra quality up front. I didn't think Barker was bad at all and really liked Kent. Tav had a great game so did goldson. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are what may be somewhat easier ties available but I would love to draw Man Utd. I suspect that may get Gerrard salivating too. I’m scared to get ahead of myself? However, can you imagine the atmosphere at Ibrox 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, can you imagine the atmosphere at Ibrox Yes indeed, it was electric for Porto and that would raise it to stratospheric. Obviously Stevie wants to beat anybody we face but them? Has to be yet another level for him from a personal perspective. As I said there are easier draws but there are harder ones too. Man Utd would satisfy me.

Gaffer 1,665 Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 If we get into the knockout stages, I want the biggest glamour tie possible, even if that means less chance of progressing. I want to see us testing ourselves against the very best in Europe. Man Utd would be an awesome tie for many reasons, but there are others in there too. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last 32: Man Utd (SG would love it) Last 16: Inter Milan (major scalp) Last 8: Zenit (Retribution now that we can score goals as well as defend) Semi: Celtic (It would be epic and them getting a run would mean Thurs/Sunday for them as well) Final: Arsenal (Tierney can emulate his heroes from Seville and pick-up a runners-up medal) 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the above occurs, I'll wear the green rag too. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll bring it with me and give it to you in Gdansk next May. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

When was the last time we did that ? (clue: it was over several seasons). Was a difficult question.............. Answer spanned several managers, from John Greig to Graeme Souness,...started in 1981 from when we won 10 European home games on the bounce until Borussia Mönchengladbach forced a draw in 1986. It was unusual in that it included five ties that we lost despite the home victory. 1981–82 Cup Winners' Cup 1R Dukla Prague 2–1 1982–83 UEFA Cup 1R Borussia Dortmund 2–0 2R 1.
