Think you’re overestimating the comp there.

We will however get routinely dispatched once we meet one of the best 8-10 sides in the last 16 or quarters.

If they're dropping the two leg format again, and we play like we did towards the end of last season then anything's possible (especially if we're not fighting for top spot domestically, which I very much doubt given our start to the season).

Win this
