Official Champions League draw Thread

[Shaggy]

Exactly mate.

I think one of two people in here are a tad too 'optimist' for my taste. Each of these teams are difficult to beat, so, nothing is decided and there is no 'good' draw.

There bloody well is. Not over-confident, but make no mistake this is a good draw when you think of who we COULD have drawn.

[AFII]

that kind of attitude could be our downfall.

and that is the only thing that can stop us beating them IMO.

We have the better team, play the second leg at Anfield and have Rafa as our manager.

I know that we should be humble in victory and never boast about us being the much better team and so on but I can't see them trouble us at all.

[certifiable]

great question - Chelsea to get beaten by Valencia every time - Utd would still have to beat Bayern/AC, where as if we were to lose to Valencia in the semi's i could stomach it, losing to Chelsea in semi's would be unbearable

My sentiments entirely.

Rather chelsea go out at this stage, cos I fancy utd to go out at next.

And as you say, would stomach losing to valencia in semi much more than Chelsea

Of course there's 'a good draw' just like there's quite obviously a 'bad draw'.

It showed their officials when we were drawn from the bowl against them.... they looked like they'd just tasted something vile, faces were a picture of disgust.

Maybe they'd given each other 69s shortly beforehand?

Mancs to go out.

Bookie on SSN now saying a Liverpool-Man United final is a 2/1 shot.

Liverpool winning it would be a huge loss for them, but if Chelsea or United win it the bookies will be in the green.

****ing ridiculous odds

I make us and Man U 1.3 to qualify from both our games, and we'll be worse than evens vs Chelsea, Man U perhaps 1.8 vs Bayern/Milan

I make that :

1.3 * 1.3 * 2 * 1.8 = 5/1

Istanbul re-match IMO.

[anfieldanfield]

Istanbul re-match IMO.

It's not impossible.

But I think Munich are better than Milan.

O RLY?

I hate over-confidence like that...

The 'Liverpool Way' is to be humble in victory, magnanimous in defeat and never boast about who we're going to beat or what we're going to win...

Exactly mate.

LMAO at you two

All we're happy with is that a route of PSV - Chelsea/Valencia to the final

is clearly easier than Man U - Chelsea/Valencia

Of course, PSV aren't formalities, so you can jump off your high horses.

[AFII]

Valencia - Liverpool

Roma - Bayern

I think that will be the semifinals and then we will play against Roma in the final.

[disco]

O RLY?

YA RLY

[Tee]

O RLY?

Is that meant to be 'Oh, really?'

[disco]

Valencia - Liverpool

Roma - Bayern

I think that will be the semifinals and then we will play against Roma in the final.

Did you get that from Tribal Football?
