    It's what we call the best of both worlds. Or having our cake and eating it! If only supporting football was this relaxed and enjoyable with our own teams, life would be great.

    Dont get me wrong, we all love a bit of bantz. But it just seems to me that those people who have a deep-down hatred of other clubs maybe just care about the game a little too much. Perhaps they need to get out more and enjoy life.

    As long as England qualify, I am very happy for other home countries to do the same...was sorry that Scotland didn't make the full house. I paid more attention to the European Cup matches before, but have paid less attention in recent years, especially now they are on BT. Not really bothered now. I have never particularly liked United, but was happy for them to do well. The teams I dislike depend directly on their recent interaction with Saints...hence dislike of Liverpool and Spurs. Time will cure that and I will probably dislike another team in the future.

    Sadly. Saints will be nowhere near a Europa League place, More important is to get a few wins together or else we are joining a battle to avoid relegation. Don't say we are too good because we look down right ordinary.

    Guess where putting those few wins together would put us?

    Tough for Arsenal, and also just about the worst draw Chelsea could have got again. Always seem to be playing PSG.

    City should get through that, although not the best place to travel to. Personally don't see Mourinho being in charge for the PSG game anyway.

    If you want to win the CL you are most likely going to need to beat Barcelona. He has nothing to lose. If they go out, it's expected, and it means his injury prone team has to play less games. If they beat Barcelona it's a huge bonus.

    The best time to face Barcelona is the final, as it's a one off game.
