I get that, but theres no Big scary team like an atletico madrid. If we play our best we should beat all those teams. And tbh, if we are gonna have to play them eventually there is an argument for playing them over two legs being better than 1.

Where have I heard this before?

Oh, against Swansea...

Don't blame me lol, Blame Ivan. :)

I much prefer to face Basel and let Benfica and Fener kill themselves. Basel setting up an upset over two legs are way less improbable than them beating us in one lucky game or whatever.

That being said, meeting up crazy Turkish fans in Amsterdan is really dangerous!

Best case scenario would be Basel in the SF and Benfica in the final, IMO.

Don't really mind who we draw, all three should be relatively easy to beat over two legs if our players take the game seriously. Maybe Basel in the semis and then Benfica / Fenerbahce in the final if we qualify.

Bad memories of the bitter Benfica fans who invaded the forum last year when we played them in the CL and also of the Fenerbahce fans who flooded this place when we sold Meireles to them. <_<

Just like every other competition we have entered this year, except prem and champions league. We should win it from here. But lets not get ahead of ourselves.

No, I'm not. But just look at the teams left, some difficult yes, but compare it to what we've faced in the past. I know we're not the same team, but we got a very difficult group in the CL and winning this thing is very doable for our current team...if we show up that is.

We knocked Fenerbahce out the UCL in 2008

We knocked Benfica out the UCL in 2012

They'll want retribution. Basel think they're bad because they beat Man Utd, Bayern Munich and Tottenham. Let's give them a handshake first for today and then knock them out and beat Fenerbahce in Amsterdam after Raul Meireles knocks Benfica out again along with celebration :)
