Not unhappy with the Arsenal draw. It's always good to play a bigger name early, IMO, and I believe Arsenal could be a good fit in terms of playing style. Our biggest struggles come sometimes when we play teams that play very defensively, and I don't think Arsenal is willing or capable of playing like that. Not that they don't have the class to be able to be dangerous, but that should be expected in these stages. Looking forward to the matches.

Cool I'm happy with the juve draw.
RM vs MU is madness.
BM and Barcelona shouldnt face any difficulty against Arsenal and AC Milan respectively but should be careful.
Other draws anyone could beat anyone.

Celtic was going to be the underdog in any matchup; not at all disappointed in drawing Juventus, though. Should be a fun tie.

its too early with all these predictions, sides will have January to make signings and form can change over two months.

Not bad, both Valencia and Malaga could go through. Dortmund shouldn't have too much trouble as well.

I think PSG are slight favorites over Valencia, plus they will add to the squad, Moura will be coming in January, he will have to adapt though.
Porto-Malaga is a classic 50/50 tie for me, could go to penalties

Yeah I'm expecting PSG to hold off Valencia, although I do think Malaga can get past Porto.

The key for Valencia will be to avoid stupid red cards
They have been guilty of that this season

Damn, can't ask for a better storyline than ManU-Real! Should be some good matches all around, with Britain in for an especially tough round.

Quite happy about Dortmund's draw.
Would love to see Real pummel United.
