Metaphorically speaking, the Premiership can head to Nyon, Switzerland, for Friday's UEFA Champions League Round of 16 draw with a smug grin and its chest puffed out.
| POSSIBLE OPPONENTS | • Arsenal: Barca, Inter, PSV, Roma, Real, Celtic, Lille • Chelsea: Inter, PSV, Roma, Real, Celtic, Porto, Lille • Liverpool: Barca, Inter, Roma, Real, Celtic, Porto, Lille • Man United: Barca, Inter, PSV, Roma, Real, Porto, Lille | |
All four English clubs - the maximum quota allowed under UEFA rules - didn't just qualify for the knockout phase of Europe's elite competition, but secured their passage as group winners. A feat neither Italy, Spain nor Germany could match.
