Should we be worried about drawing Bruges now then!?

Yes! They’re killing them on the break in the way we tend to be very susceptible to

Will we be away for the first leg because we qualified top 8?

Yes. But all QF and SF orders will be determined at the draw on Friday along with our first opponents.

Bayern are making really hard work of getting past a very poor Celtic side

Dont know why they have done it like this. Maybe ok for this round but then final 8 should be anyone can draw anyone not have all the orders in place from now. Prefer how it was in the old days

Liked that Feyenoord kit in green and white, which also represents the colours of Rotterdam.

I sneaked into De Kuip a few years ago and inside their main entrance there were some photos showing them in green and white IIRC. May have been when they were Feijenoord

I suspect it might be because the knockout games are more condensed over the next few months so rather then have to do several draws, easier to have fixed brackets.

so can we play Brugge or is it Dortmund?

Either, the draw on Friday will decide who.

Cheers. Brugge looks bloody decent and not the weak link we might be thinking.

Yet another reason why this play-off round was best avoided.
