What do people think of the draw?

A few months ago I’d have written us off facing Barca, but now I say bring it on. If we go down to them then there’s no shame in it and we’ll definitely give them a game.

It’s a long time since you could say that, so let’s have it!

Couldn’t have been worse tbh. Looks like if we are going to win something this year it’ll be the hard way. Juventus, Valencia, Young Boys, PSG, potentially Liverpool then City/ Juventus again or FA Cup Reading, Chelsea, Arsenal, Wolves, with City to come if we get them. But would much refer these big games, it’s where our squad and Ole will grow. I see people pointing out City’s quite frankly easy draws in all comps this year but that’s them, in all honesty nobody cares about City.

Looking at our recent record in cup competitions we normally get knocked out by the so called "weaker" teams. Sevilla last year, yet this year we beat PSG.

It seems playing the best brings the best out of our players.

The way Ole has us playing we have a chance against anyone.

I would prefer to play the best teams. You either win and become hero's, or you lose and you can hold your head high. There would be no shame getting knocked out by Barcelona, yet Ajax or Porto are more than capable of beating anyone still in the competition. Yet, lose to them and the fall out would be huge.

Play the best, go for glory. That is the United way.

Why fight so hard to be in the UCL next year if we aren't going to relish games against to top sides. These are the night that make the hairs on the back of your neck stand on end. When the UCL theme tune comes on and you see our boys and Barcelona walking out on the pitch. We have hope and the ability to win.

Enjoy it.

I'm hoping we meet the Barcelona that has lost two and drawn four of their matches since the beginning of the year. Nothing is impossible.
