Man Utd legend Crerand looking forward to Champions League return

Manchester United legend Paddy Crerand is looking forward to their Champions League tie with Olympiakos.

United topped Group A with an impressive 14 points from a possible 18, which bolsters Crerand's confidence ahead of the last 16 first leg trip to the Karaiskakis Stadium, with the return match at Old Trafford on 19 March.

"The players have been excellent in Europe this season and David Moyes deserves a lot of credit for that," Crerand told manutd.com. "Getting out of the group wasn't easy, but we passed with flying colours. Without dismissing the Greeks, the quarter-finals are well within reach. You never know what might happen from that point on. The club is experienced on the continent and anything can happen in this competition."
