I think you'll find the current draw does
Can't have two home games clashing
I don't think they'll smash Juve
It's official, not my opinion
Ajax will beat Juve.
Spurs are maddeningly/amusingly unpredictable. I wouldn't pretend to know how they'll play against City - they could be hopeless, they could make it really difficult.
United vs Barca will be very interesting. Other than us, I think United have the speediest counter-attack left in the competition to take advantage of Barca's vulnerabilities – if they play their cards right, they genuinely have a chance and being the underdog in everybody's eyes will suit them.
Juve vs Ajax – hmm, the Ajax we saw at the Bernabeu could genuinely beat anyone, but not even their coach or players know if they can reach same level again. Juve are favorites, of course.
Spurs vs City – great draw for us, this will be exhausting tactical trench warfare in both games. Pochettino and Guardiola know each other's thinking and will spend countless hours trying to ruin each other's plans. I wouldn't rule out overtime and penalties.
LFC vs Porto – probably won't be so easy this time, but I can't see us not going through.

Great draw.
Porto won't be as easy as last time as they've got a better centre half now in Militao. But we should win the home leg and at worst draw away. We play them either side of a Chelsea PL home game.
United v Barca. Don't mind either. United are still in a fight for top 4 and will have to prioritise around the semi final time. As for Barca, well if they go through, we'll play them away first (which I think is important when beating them) and play them either side of an away PL game to Newcastle.
City play Spurs either side of a Palace away game (who are still fighting for their lives) and just before an FA cup semi final game (hopefully against United!). Spurs can somewhat rest players as they play Huddersfield at home in between the City games. Spurs also play City immediately after the CL game at home.
City run of fixtures could be:
FA cup semi vs United. (fingers crossed)
CL Quarter vs Spurs (away)
PL vs Palace (away)
CL vs Spurs (home)
PL vs Spurs (home)
PL vs United (away)
PL vs Burnley (away)
CL vs potential semi final against Juve/Ajax (home)
All in the space of 25 days! That would test them. Finally!

I'd quite like him to come on when they're 3 down to try and rescue things so that Milner can go through him.
Only if VVD follows up after.
Prefer twatting them with him on the pitch.
