Re: Champions League play-off
worst thing is not opponent but a PL game sandwiched between to qualifiers legs
lets see how our fixture will look like
good start to season is key to not have long suffering season just like past 2

btw why do people want pacos? they have been great this season in Portugal, and are underrated, exactly the team i do not want us to face, we'd probably underestimate them and lose

Re: Champions League play-off
None of those teams worry me at all. Fenerbahce would be a difficult away trip but we've always played well in those sorts of games and at home you'd expect us to be comfortable favourites. Sociedad and PSV would be the same.
It's difficult to judge competition at the moment, though, since many things can change in the summer. Our squad could very well be a lot better than anyone's in the qualifying stage, while the likes of Pacos and Sociedad could easily have their better players poached after a great season and may not even find that sort of form again (Montpellier are a good example of this).
Udinese was difficult a couple of seasons back since we were in absolute disarray. Every other time we've done this we've always progressed comfortably.

Wouldn't mind steering clear of Fenerbahce too. We would make Dirk Kuyt look like Bergkamp circa 1998
