Reaction to the Europa League draw

The draw has given us Steaua Bucharest, Napoli and Utrecht.

In terms of who we could have been drawn against, it's a tough group but in real terms it should be piss-easy. Let's be honest, if we'd been given this group in the Champions League we would have been wondering if UEFA had confused us with Man Ure when rigging the draw (incidentally Man Ure have been given Valencia, Rangers and Bursaspor - pathetic!).

We played Steaua back in 2003-04 and drew 1-1 away with a goal from... Djimi Traore (in the right end too!) before winning the home leg 1-0 with a goal from Harry Kewell. All I really remember from the games was the crap pitch in Bucharest.

I don't know much about Napoli except they have a crap left-back who goes by the name of Andrea Dossena.

Utrecht could be tricky but realistically, we would expect to beat Ajax, PSV or Twente so we shouldn't be losing sleep about playing an inferior Dutch team.

Basically, if we want to take this competition seriously, we should sail through that group with a very healthy goal difference.
