Well it's been good to be back in the Champions League, same time next year lads!Draw in full.
Quarter-finals draw
Arsenal v Bayern Munich
Atletico Madrid v Dortmund
Paris St-Germain v Barcelona
Real Madrid v Manchester City
Semi-finals draw
Atletico Madrid or Borussia Dortmund v Paris St-Germain or Barcelona
Arsenal or Bayern Munich v Real Madrid or Manchester City
The quarter-final first legs will be played on April 9 and 10, with the second legs the following week. The semi-finals take place on April 30 and May 1, with the return legs on May 7 and 8. Wembley will host the final on Saturday, June 1.
So we get "home" advantage for first leg, still not sure it's an advantage but it is what is. As expected max of 1 EPL team can get to final.
It is the seventh time we have been paired with Bayern in the competition, and out of our 14 meetings we have won three, drawn twice and lost seven.
Seem to recall some nasty losses against them last time >.<

We need to hammer this home and get a couple goals. There will be no away support (aside from rogues that get in) in the stadium that night either just to give us another 2%.

I'll make sure and not cock up getting tickets this time! For those that need to get into ballots etc timings are above, good luck!!
CAT A game and no away fans apparently* (not sure where than info came from so pinch of salt and all that) so might be a full house and best chance to get a chumps league ticket.
*ETA Bayern Munich supporters threw fireworks onto the pitch during their 3-0 second-leg win against Lazio earlier this month which saw UEFA take action.

Gabriel withdrawn from Brazil squad as ongoing foot issue means not called up as a precaution... given Brazils ability to injury our players that seems sensible.
Could be a big help if not rusty but "Timber is set to return to first-team action after the international break."
No shock but Cedric "confirmed" as leaving on a free in the summer when contract ends.
Nketamine, ESR and Nelson are all lined up to leave in the summer if you believe rumours Wolves, Villa and Brighton respectively
And the biggest news of all is Saka has created his own Nandos sauce...
