While I sort of want the English teams to keep progressing, I would love to see Ajax go all the way. Ajax vs Spurs would be a great a tie.
There will be fireworks if Pool get the Spuds. If a miracle happened and the spuds won it, I’d just go quiet and pretend I wasn’t bovvered.
Didn't you beat them 5 nil on aggregate last season? I've got a feeling that one of you and City will draw Juve.
Yeah we beat them without breaking a sweat, they may have improved but not enough to beat any of the remaining teams over 2 legs. Getting Porto will be a deffo place in the Semis so Utd are nailed on to get them.
Ajax vs Porto United vs Spurs City vs Barca Liverpool vs Juve Ajax vs United City vs Liverpool United to mop the floor with whichever of our rivals come our way in the final. Might as well make it interesting if we are saying what we hope for. 20 years since Ole’s miracle, it’s written in the stars.
**** happens. You lost to a bunch of Belarusian roadsweepers. Would you take that as an indicator of your overall form?
United v Spurs Ajax v Porto City v Liverpool Juve v Barca. The winner of City/Liverpool plays Juve or Barca and United play Porto or Ajax.
We’ve had a bad run of form, apart from the Dortmund game, where we were very good and handled both the top team in Germany and their notorious crowd very well. We seem to be getting more savvy in what’s required to be successful in the CL. No we’re not good enough to win it, imo, but depending on the draw we could make the semis.
Would be brilliant to see all the english sides miss each other in the draw and then all 4 go through to the semis. Though the draw is probably as corrupt as the Carabao Cup, so expect all the english sides to face each other.
