    A stroke of luck as it means we can't get PSG or Real. Changing the seeding system in one of the few seasons that Chelsea are champions must be part of the conspiracy. UEFA are looking for ways to limit Chelsea's domination of European football.

    How? You can only draw one second seed: one of PSG (if Lyon win league) or Real/Barca.

    Unlike United we always give TOP Barca sides a good game anyway! <whistle>

    Most likely PSG will win La Liga; and Barca and Real could share CL and La Liga leaving Atletico as a second seed. Tbh I'd rather play Barca or Real.

    United more likely to get a top side: one of Barca/Real, Bayern, Juve or PSG

    Why? Real can win CL or La Liga; and PSG are favourites to win their league (just)

    Barca vs Bayern
    Real vs Juve

    I really hope Bayern beat Barca for a Real vs Bayern final...

    Does anyone know if Bayern's big guns like Robben and Ribery will still be injured for the semi-finals?

    Well obviously <laugh> Yet it doesn't change Chelsea's European situation :D

    tbf it was Jose that cost you v PSG not the side, Jose had them so programmed to be solid, when PSG went down to 10 your side were walking around the pitch clueless on what to do. It's almost as if the extra space on the pitch scared them<laugh>

    What's the opposite of claustrpohibia ? <laugh> Agoraphobia that's it lol. Jose induces it

    10 years playing for Jose leaves footballers afraid to leave the confines of their own homes <laugh>

    It's pretty amazing that after all the time and effort Mourinho and his players spend trying to get referees to send off opposition players, they don't have a clear plan what to do when they succeed!

    Bottled it to 10 man Barca in 2009, bottled it to 10 man PSG in 2015. I'm surprised Mourinho doesn't spend more time trying to get refs to send his own players off, just to give him an excuse to ratchet that handbrake up another notch...

    I think you might be on to something there <laugh>

    Unless that was what Oscar was actually trying to do in the first place and it backfired<whistle>

    Especially considering what they did to Barca when down to ten men.

    That was Di Mateo though, Jose wouldn't know how.

    It really was Oscar that should have seen red, for the tackle, and an award for the acting. #shameful
