How far can Newcastle get in the Champions League?

Chief football writer Phil McNulty has been answering your questions.
Jack asked: What stage do you think Newcastle will reach in the Champions League this season?
Phil answered: Newcastle United have some very tough games, starting with Barcelona on Thursday, and of course Marseille and holders Paris St-Germain away later in the league phase.
In between, they do have winnable games, so my prediction would be for Newcastle to reach the play-off stage - and then it's all to play for.
What is certain is that there will be some great nights on Tyneside.
I'm at St James' Park on Thursday for the Barcelona game and can't wait.
