    All (apart from Red Bull) significantly better sides than Anderlecht. After tonight's performance and some of the performance's in Europe this season, I'm not confident..

    Don’t GAF mate, we’re in Europe after Christmas which was our aim and we will improve before the games come round.

    Hope so mate, but can't say I'm confident. Investment obviously needed in January..

    Investment is a given IMO. I think we’ll bring in at least 2.

    Nothing's a given with our board. Investment has failed to materialize in the last two windows, with Rodgers openly expressing his disappointment. Obviously, they need to back him to the hilt, this upcoming window ..

    Dortmund wouldn't be the worst draw just now. They'd ultimately pump us but they aren't a form side at least.

    There’s never been a window in recent years where there’s a threat of * off your manager whilst the vultures down south are circling.

    We’ll back him where we can IMO.

    This.

    If the board have any sense they'll back the man, otherwise he's off and our support will be * raging.

    It would be the end of Lawwell if that happened.

    So potentially could others but we play a full season to get to the European table so why sit and * ourselves about it?

    We’re developing as a club and a squad.

    Could do with a bit of luck in this draw to be honest. Some cracking teams in it.

    Hopefully the PSG defeats added to Barca last year will put off the glamour tie brigade.

    I want the shitiest mob possibly.

    Because I don’t want to sit and watch another PSG type of pumping, as you say yourself the board need to back Brendan in January. And given that they will bank more ticket money and tv money then hopefully they do, because as I said Villarreal and Atletico could hand out a serious * skelping.

    See what you’re getting at but I just don’t understand the negativity about a pot luck draw.

    Our target when the Champions League draw was made was to finish 3rd and we’ve done it. Now time to regroup and push on again. Regardless of who we draw.

    Aye fair point mate, I just hope to face neither Atletico or Villarreal. But agree if given a place in Europe after Christmas when the group was drawn then no * would have said that wasn’t the target if they were honest.

    Really think we’ll get knocked out in the first round.

    Aye we assumed we would strengthen in the summer and we brought in a backup midfielder (probably first choice now), and a 3rd striker or loan.

    Who was the backup midfielder we brought in?
