REACTION: Everton Draw BSC Young Boys

[ToffeeDoug]

There is some outfit called SkyWork Airlines who fly direct to Bern from Southend Airport, very pricy though. Good flight time out, terrible coming back.

Pretty much dream draw.

Not underestimating them but still could have been so much worse

Men vs Boys

 

[matty1878]

me neither mate. Bound to happen though.

If the away game was first and we had a fully fit squad I would still not wanna play them!

Men vs Boys

how do you feel about the Monaco draw mate

 

[ToffeeDoug]

Just realised they beat Napoli 2-0 at home...

If we can come away from Switzerland with a draw or even a 1-0 loss I'd fancy us to go through, but we've got to be careful.

In their group, the bottom team got zero points, so the 12 points that YB got is rather distorted. They are currently 3rd in the Swiss League, so they are a good team definitely but not one that we should be fearing.

 

[TheFinnFan]

When you look at the other British teams games we've done more than alright there.

Besiktas
Inter
Fiorentina

Yes. Compared to these we defo have "easiest"

But we can be sure our manager wont underestimate them.

 

[Michael Bazel Betschart]

YES! Great draw! I'm from Switzerland! Enjoy the trip guys! I'll be there

 

[Ashtonian]

Considering who we could have gotten and the fact we beat both Lille and Wolfsburg (twice) i would say if we maintain our form then we can book the next round already.

Fingers crossed for them lot / celtic / a glam tie like ajax.

 

[Pejic300]

It's a pretty good draw considering who we could've got. A quick glance at their squad list shows no-one I've ever heard of, although their second-choice 'keeper is called David van Ballmoos. Insert your own joke here...

 

[red1]

how do you feel about the Monaco draw mate

We're basically in the quarters already, Monaco are such a poor team, I don't think we could lose even if we tried. It's a double-edged sword though because I wanted Wenger to leave...when we beat Monaco and get eliminated in the quarters...he will turn around and say "See? I'm the best man for the job, we reached the quarters!" (As if no other manager could beat Monaco). Ugh

Basically, for the short term I am very excited...but it will hurt us in the long term

 

[Foot Long Hot Dog]

Isn't the draw for the next round made today as well?

 

[The Cowboy]

Are we underestimating these Young Boys? Reading some of the texts and comments on BBC, lots of people claiming stuff like '4 really tough draws for the British sides' and 'Britain will be lucky to have any representation on the next round' etc.

Based on the name alone, you wouldn't rank them that highly, but are they going to be tough to beat?

 

[EFCPaul]

The last time Lukaku went up against Young Boys he gave them Kit Kats.

I honestly thought Lille and Wolfsburg were going to be really tough ties, martinez made it look so easy in the end. Pull yourself together were Everton arent we ? Were boss I.D.A.T
