Unless you are actually travelling. Basle are an absolutely horrible set of c*nts and Moscow is just a pain in the ****.

Lisbon's nice and cheap though.

I had put that after just Benfica were drawn and at that point it was true, less so after the next two teams were put in the draw
 
R.I.P Tottenham, at least they'll be able to go to Europa and knockout Arsenal in later stages! :P
 
Should at least have 4 English teams qualify from grroups into knockout stages: - United, Liveprool, City and Chelsea.

Will be good to get a good run of English teams into the knockout rounds. Don't see many going that far after that but who knows.

Do we have some of the worlds best managers in the PL now?
Let's see what they are made of.

It's going to be exciting.

Yes the PL has the best managers! But not the best players. (La Liga has that).

But you're right we should see what they are made of.

As a United fan I'm more focused on PL this year, rightly or wrongly.
 
Yeah, not bad .....

We play Spartak in Moscow the night before Utd play CSKA. In Moscow.

We could both be banned from Europe before MD3. That's if we don't disappear to Siberia!

City won't be happy travelling to Donetsk before coming to our place. Be even better if it gets moved to Saturday :)
 
Zlatan and Lukaku, we just need someone who can cross the ball now! :P

If we get Perisic or another winger will be perfect window.

Would dominate the box with those two in a 3-5-2, probably won't happen but get a winger! :D

Hate 352 but that's just me. Castles and s few reports on France saying we are still in for Lemar. Who is another great deliverer of the ball.

Not a big fan of it either but it would be amusing just to see those two up front together.
 
My gut tells me we'll be seeing Zlatan around the Xmas run in, and he'd be absolutely vital in that tricky period. I don't think it's a case of Zlatan & Lukaku up front in a 2, I think it's more a case of having two top class CF's to rotate with and negotiate fixture congestion in what we hope to be a season fighting for every trophy.

Like Madrid last year, take Benzema out for a game and throw in Morata, no harm done.
 
If we put on all our 6 foot plus players rumour has it Tony Pulis will cream his pants

Pulis is Mourinho's successor when he leaves, everyone knows they are good friends.

It will be Moyes and Fergie all over again.

When Mourinho retires, he'll drive to Pulis's house and tell him 'Your Manchester United's next manager'.
