So it's Unirea Urziceni, with the first leg at Anfield and the second in Budapest.
The winner will meet Lille or Fenerbahce in the Round of 16. I'm assuredly not looking past any
opponents after the CL group stage, but that could have been worse. That could have been a lot
worse.
It could have been Everton or Fulham's draw.

getting stuck into the oppositions face and break up play.
