Barca scrape through and Bayern stroll it. I wonder how the draw will go?

Malaga's chairman has claimed that they were eliminated because of racism. <doh>

Related to Rio Ferdinand by any chance?

The draw will go as follows: Bayern vs Barca and Real vs Dortmund. They will separate the sides out.
 
<doh>...when will you stop talking out of your arse?. You lot are weak only because of your **** managerial situation brought on yourselves, you have a squad that would walk into most top teams, in Europe, never mind just the PL. I remain unconvinced about Mancini and his ability to manage all the ego's he has there when its not going so well. None of this has any relevance to the quality of the PL, the top teams have individual issues brought on themselves, nothing to do with the quality at their disposal, great players badly managed, that is all.

English teams going out of the CL early...its happened to all countries involved at some point, well done for combining two seperate non-related issues.

The fact that Real and Dortmund, 2 of the semi finalists were in City's group says a lot and perhaps vindicates their poor performance in Europe a little bit.

Man U and all the other English sides are absolutely nowhere near that level. The 4 semi finalists are above and beyond anything the PL has to offer, if you can't see that now I guarantee you'll see it soon when it keeps on repeating itself.

Okay, come back at the end of next season then and tell us the same :)




Speaking of the Champions League, it's funny how Juventus' CL campaign mirrored ours. Beating the holders soundly to top their group and then well beaten by a top CL side. As I recall that makes them an embarrassment to their nation, I shudder to think what that makes Chelsea, who couldn't even beat them.

Noted in be diary :)
 
Barcelona scraped past PSG, having had a scare v Milan, beaten by Celtic in the group stages when still all to play for.....Real Madrid had a lucky break v Utd when looking set to go out and didn't look too solid v Galatasaray and Dortmund fluked their way past Malaga. Only Bayern have looked consistently good. DL keeps trotting out his mantra that these sides are far ahead of the English ones. Why?
 
out of interest why did you want us out? I'd love to play Spurs in the semis/final and surely us playing more games is better for you.

It would amuse me :)

Normally I'd enjoy meeting you guys(would much rather in the semis) but this top 4 run in is stressful enough, I don't think I could cope with anymore <laugh>

EVERYTHING about watching Spurs is stressful. As it has been for years. We never do anything the easy way.
