    Manchestet United have LFC, CFC, Newcastle, Villa, City aways and QPR home following European ties.

    Is this true? <laugh>

    the away games wont be the most fun, especially visiting Turkey and Romania again, but i don't expect a mess like last year again, I imagine the team will be more settled and senior going to these games, helps having more options this year as well, all in all though its one of the better draws of the teams available and we did get one of the teams seeded in pot 4 that are the kind of team you expect to be there

    True, but Kagawa was their main creator of chances last season - a lot will depend on how Goetze and / or Reus grow into the role behind Lewandowski. When you break up a partnership like that, it's often hard to replace. Not saying they'll be a pushover, but City have a much more settled squad which makes them favourite to quality imo.

    Wonder if everyone will bleat on about it like they did when the opposite happened to City last season? <whistle>

    Yes. $$hitty have got a tough draw. But the silver lining for them is that should they get through and do well in the group, they will have put a marker down and will get a huge psychological boost.
