So we face the Italian side AS Roma in the Quarters of UEFA CL....A good draw i must say...there is intense rivalry towards them..and we already have played them once in this year's CL campaign...so we know their strengths and weeknessess....
And it's the second time in two seasons that the Giallorossi stand in Sir Alex Ferguson's way at the quarter final stage.
The Reds boss will be pleased his side are away in the first leg on Tuesday 1 April, with Luciano Spalletti bringing his men to Old Trafford for the return fixture on Wednesday 9 April.
The semi final draw was also made in Nyon on Friday. Should United get past Roma, the Reds will be away in the first leg of the last four, against either Schalke or Barcelona. The semi final first leg will be played on Wednesday 23 April, the return on Tuesday 29 April.
It means United cannot play Premier League opposition before the final in Moscow..wow what a final that would be...an all english final.. while the winner of Arsenal and Liverpool's all-English quarter final will face either Fenerbahce or Chelsea.
Full Draw
Arsenal v Liverpool
Roma v Manchester United
Schalke v Barcelona
Fenerbahce v Chelsea
